Hi guys! This is just for new people to goodreads or the group to introduce themselves! Just say hi and a few simple things about you.

I'm Jessica btw and I love animals, have a crazy laugh, and ofcourse, lurrrvvve reading!


message 2: by Angelique (new)

Angelique (angelique682) Hi all,

I have only been around for a short while. Thanks to Emily (shamelessly self promoting the group) I found my place in the world.

I am 23 years old. Studying towards obtaining my law degree.
I love reading, dabble in writing and am currently hosting a kick ass blog @ whyicantstopreading.wordpress.com (some more shameless self promoting :D).

We're all a pretty insane group. Like what you read on the threads? Don't just laugh. Join in. We won't laugh at you. Maybe.

Lol Angelique :P

I'm Emily, but my friends (and occasionally teachers who can't be bothered to say my full name) call me Em. I love reading, Sherlock, Doctor Who, Miranda and I spend an unhealthy amount of time on YouTube, Tumblr and Facebook. My favourite foods are lasagna, pizza and chocolate, and just like Jessica, I have a seriously insane laugh. My favourite authors are Richelle Mead, Cat Patrick, Louise Rennison, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, Anne Frank, Erin Hunter, Stephenie Meyer, Morris Gleitzman, Suzanne Collins, and a whole ton more. I am also prone to randomly yelling "HUSK!" (Miranda fans!) and drawing historical and fictional figures as a slice of cheese - I am most proud of my picture of a slice of cheese wearing a top hat and a monacle sayig "Such fun!" (What-I-Call Miranda fans will get what I mean!) Anyway, I have a nice GIF below to calm you down and reassure you of my sanity.

Also (Shameless self-promotion) I moderate a group called "SHERlocked" so all Sherlock Holmes fans have a look, we discuss the books, TV series, movies, characters, and we even have a roleplay :-)

Hmmm.

Jessica (jesskingxoxo) | 876 comments Mod
Like the GIF though. How do you make them? do you just cut out a video and set it on replay over and over? I could probably even make one on my phone.

Emily (emilydodd221) | 530 comments Mod
No idea, I just found that on the internet.

It's on that website MemeCreator. I was making a meme and found out how to make a GIF. I'm doing it the youtube way by putting a link there and then you can make the GIF! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!


message 13: by [deleted user] (new)

If you haven't joined one of my two groups you should. They're Twilight Saga and Twilight Forever. They're both really awesome, but they're not as active as I'd like. So if you like Twilight just as much as I do come check out one of my two groups.

Jessica (jesskingxoxo) | 876 comments Mod
Cool, I'll check them out. I was trying to make a GIF of Sherlock in his sheet but it wouldn't let me use the cut out of the video :(

The most books I've read at one time is 3, but that was only because I kept leaving the book I was reading at school and so I started a trail of books.
