Once Upon a YA Book discussion

Here you can introduce yourself to the other members of the club. Maybe say what books you like or a bit about yourself.
I'll start :)

Hi, I'm Lilith! I am in love with YA books, well, all books really but YA in particular. The books I'm currently obsessing over are the Throne of Glass books (love Sarah J. Maas!) but I otherwise have tons of favorite books.

Hey, I'm Bella, I have only recently been introduced to Good Reads but I'm loving it. I'm a massive fan of Dan Brown, Nicholas Sparks and Cassandra Clare and of course J.K. Rowling. I joined this group to find some new books which you guys would recommend. I'm open to all genres.

hey everyone my name is tammie and i am a mod of the group helping out lilith so if all have any questions let us know

Hello all,

Hi,
I'm Sienna, I LOVE YA and I recently started writing my own YA books. I'm not reading any new books right now, having just finished If You Find Me by Emilie Murdoch and a few of John Green's books; Paper Towns, TFIOS, An Abundance of Katherines. If anyone has some good book recommendations I would love to hear them!

I want to read more of John Green's books as I've only read TFIOS- which one should I read next?

@Kat Welcome and you should read Paper Towns, its great and the movie is coming out in a few months

@Kat
Hi! An Abundance of Katherines by John Green was really good! Theres a teenage guy has a type of mid-life(teen)-crisis after being dumped by yet another Katerine which then leads into the rest of the book. I dont want to give any more spoilers than what I've said already sooo, yeah. It is really good though! I would recommend it.

I saw the trailer to that movie and it does look good. Just added the book to my must-read list- thank you!!

Never heard of this one before but it sounds like a good read. Also added this one to my list! :)

Nice to meet you all :)

Hey, I'm Melissa and after being in a very long (like six months long) reading slump I've just gotten back into reading. I have just discovered the Goodreads and am loving it. I find it a great motivation and a great way to find new books.

Hi, I am Prex J.D.V. Ybasco, an indie YA Author. I love reading YA novels as they invigorate my soul. Fantasy (particularly Harry Potter series and Eragon) and Sci Fi (Pendragon) are my favorites although I don't limit myself as I also like reading Michael Crichton's to JRR Tolkien's novels.

@Paul Welcome! OMG that's awesome!

Hello, some probably know me from floating about Goodreads but my name is Connie, I'm an 18 year old from Northern Ireland who loves anything YA and I review every book I read...

I also guest review books at least once a month on divergentgryffindor (Shameless promo ;) )

Hey, I'm Jasmine and my favorite authors are Jennifer L. Armentrout(I love almost every single one of her books!), John Green(I've read Looking for Alaska, TFiOS, and will read Paper Towns soon, and Mitch Albom. Btw, I'm currently reading The Premonition series by Amy A. Bartol. Nice to meet you guys here. Happy reading! :)

Hi all, my name is Shameez, and I will read almost anything, but YA is my absolute favourite. Especially when they is a romance involved.

I love John Green, Rainbow Rowell, many many more, (OF COURSE JK ROWLING - SHE IS QUEEN)

Anyway, I am working on my very own YA novel which I hope you will all read :)

I am currently reading (don't judge me) Buffy the Vampire Slayer! Ha! I picked it up for next to nothing at a charity book sale.

Hey everyone! I'm Ten, a 19 year old university student originally from Canada but in school down in the US. I love everything YA, although I love Fantasy/Sci-Fi and a really good classic every now and then!

I have way too many favourites to even count, but really enjoyed the Harry Potter series, the Seven Realms series, and Graceling!

Hi I'm Nancy. I'm Chinese and just move to Canada. I love to read.

Hi everyone! My name is Mugzy, weird name I know, I could never find my name on those cool collectible things you find at tourist locations! I'm a huge reader, I also really like to re-read whole series to look for underlying themes or just to learn more about the characters. Currently I'm re-reading the whole Throne of Glass series in anticipation for Queen of Shadows, this is something I do nearly every time a new book in the series comes out so the story feels continuous and I don't have questions about "who was that again?, I don't remember them doing that" I'm going to regret this little habit when Brandon Sanderson releases a new book. Anyway I'm mostly looking for friends to read and discuss with :)

Hey everyone! I'm Robin.

I love to read (obviously LOL), go camping, swimming, fishing, and hunting.

Can't wait to discuss Bookish topics with you all!

Hi guys, I'm Bella! Since I'm kinda in this website it must be obvious that I Love to read XD I live in Scotland, UK and I love Fantasy ans sci-fi books. I'm also a sucker for a sappy romance XP. Can't wait to get to know you guys, thanks for the invite Lil

Gey, welcome guys!
