Hey Melissa! So, honestly my favorite type of book really depends on my mood. I do enjoy angst as long as it's not too over the top and alpha's are always good :) I do also enjoy a great paranormal romance! I hope with this group I can get a lot of great book reccommendations and meet some awesome people!
I agree Amy, my book selection goes by my mood too. Sometimes I wants angst, others light and fluff. I yet to venture to paranormal (except KA), but I did read my first M/M book and loved it. I like to have friends to chat books with and make suggestion because they know what you like. Buddy reads are fun too. I did a buddy read of the Undeniable series and I had fun chatting with my friend (shout out Chaddy)about it
Kat wrote: "never done a buddy read before this sounds good maybe we could start one next week when kaleidoscope by kristen ashley comes out?"I'm in :)
We just have to decide when to start reading it and then chat during the day/night, usually by private message. We have to make sure not to give too much away because I know Kat is 5 hours ahead of me (I am in New York) It should be fun, especially KA
Kat wrote: "What about if I create a new topic for this book and we or anyone else who wants to read it can comment too?"Perfect!!! That way more people can comment. Good thinking :)
I am with you guys, I read a little bit of everything, depending on my mood (and what I am recovering from:)). I am here for recommendations and to chat with people who understand my reading obsession:). I have never done a buddy read, and would love to participate. I am in MN (CST). I usually take KA release days off of work, but wasn't able to for Kal:( I may still pull and all-nighter, though, it has been known to happen.
Hello everyone.I like anything that has a HEA.
Although I don't like anything too angsty and anything too horrible to happen on the way to the HEA in a Contemporary read. I tend to be more forgiving in historical/fantasy/dark reads for that though.
I do not mind a series about the same couple, if they couple stays together through the books, and I know they start as a couple and end as a couple, such as J D Robb and the In Death Series, but I am over the trilogy, where nothing is resolved till the last 25% of the last book.
My dear friend Diana, invited me to join you gals and I am so glad I came to check out what this new group was because how fun is this! Thanks Di!I also love anything with an HEA. (I think RAW is the only book I have read where there wasn't a traditional HEA, but I still absolutely loved it)
I don't read much paranormal and I stay away from books with cheating in them, but other than that I am good to go. My favorites books always seem to have hot, possessive alpha men and strong, non-whiney heroines :)
Hey ChaddyOh, I do not like cheating either! I do not even like a love triangle!
Which is weird, as I can read some quite dark stuff fine, but am a wimp with what I will accept in a Contemporary Romance!
Hi girls!Kat--you should know, you can't steal Di from me. I called dibs a long time ago and dibs always trumps everything else. ;)
SamJ--I hate love triangles too. Just pick someone! Thoughtless practically sent me over the edge. I only read it to move on to the other two books and to meet Kellan Kyle. Just typing his name makes my girlie parts tingle.
Well, as long as that is settled, I am happy to share! Plus, if you two are book soul mates, I know you and I will get along beautifully because Diana and I have such similar tastes, it's almost spooky. I love making new book friends!

My Goodreads BFF is here!!! I am so glad you made the jump over. The ladies are awesome here and we all seem to have the same taste in books. I am so happy you joined us.
Kat wrote: "Chaddy there are no rules that day you can't be book soul mates with more than one person :)"Ladies, there is enough Diana awesomeness (I am such a dork) to go around. Share the love. Chaddy, just don't mess with Kat and Jesse Ward. She is quite possesive.
It's true, you do have awesomeness a plenty! Oh and don't worry, I already heard about Kat's book husband. Her possessiveness seems to rival Jesse's. Not going there.
Hi everyone, newbie here! I can pretty much read anything if I'm in the mood! That being said I love my alphas, I'm a little bit (OK, a lot!) in love and slightly obsessed with a certain Lord of the Sex Manor! I enjoy some paranormal, though not sci-fi. I love dark and emotional reads every now and then. I'm a sucker for a HEA and enjoy a good series but I love to find one off gems such as Raw (OMG!!) I'm here to discuss great books, buddy read, look for recommendations and make friends along the way! :)
And I literally just saw the two previous comments...Is this going to cause problems in our newly found friendship status, Kat? haha ;)

Seeing as we have only just made friends (but not in the Jesse sense) I've decided I'll share him with you because I think there's enough of him to go around. :)"UMMMMM!!! (foot tapping here) Really, you flexed your muscles yesterday when I even dared to mention Jesse. Thanks a lot!!! :(

Hey Charlotte,
Welcome to the group. We have a bunch of buddy reads gettng ready to kick off within the next week or two after we all finish with Kaliedsecope. I think the first up is the Friend Zoned series.

Ah perfect. Kat we will get along famously lol :)Diana thanks for the welcome. I'll check out the thread. I have Friend-Zoned on my Kindle ready to go.
Melissa, yay! Love me an alpha!
Speaking of, I hear KA does alpha like no other!?

You are right, nobody does Alpha like KA. You should give one of her series a try. Maybe start with her Dream Man Series. Mystery Man is the 1st book in that series. If you like a little mystery, try the Burg Series or Colorado Mtn Men. In fact, it doesn't matter, they all rock. Even the Fantasyland series and I do not do paranormal and I loved it. It is not over the top or wierd in any way.
I know I know... I genuinely do not understand how I have not read her books before now. *hangs head in shame*That being said I do have all (what's been released so far anyway) of her Dream Man, Colorado Mountain, Unfinished Hero and Rock Chick series. See, so I have very good intentions... :)
Hey hey peeps! I'm Amy, 31 navy wife and mom of 3 kiddos. I love to read, which is normally where you can find me. I review books for Novel Grounds :) I love to read all kinds of books
Hey Amy, welcome. I am busy reading Kaliedescope so that I can join the buddy read for the Friend Zoned Series. Have you read them yet? If not why don't you join us.

Hi, I'm Bobbi Romans. I'm in N. FL but was born and raised in VA.I write any and all. Characters tell ME what to do and not vice-versa. (Won't post links here, but I'm Goodreads)
My family is monster sized. (No, for real. It is) Even our pets are, well... different.
Rats, Crawdads, Flying squirrels, ferrets, etc. NOTE: They all FOUND us. Showed up in the yard or doorstep.
Weird side notes: I've been on a talk show and as a notary, have married two couples.
Extra side-note: you don't want me marrying you. Both couples are now divorced. *wails* (sniffle, I did the best I could)
I'm currently finishing up a project due on the 16th.
Here's a safe snippet.
"Clothes were shed and steps became stumbles as skin met skin and old bed springs screamed in protest at the sudden assault upon."
