Hi there! I'm an English teacher in France. I teach in a high school specialised in applied arts, design and architecture. That's really fun. I'm a mother of two amazing daughters and wife of an awesome husband!
I love books, movies, museums, creative writing, board games, travelling, design (especially graphic design and typography), walking.

Hello all. I am from Illinois and I am a reading addict. I cannot go a day without reading. I find that I need to read to keep myself sane. It's my down time to regenerate from life. I also like to spend alot of time alone doing my own thing and reading fits that perfectly. Happy Reading!! I look forward to getting to know all of you!! Candy

Thanks Aaron for the invite.

Hi all, I'm Graeme, I write an urban fantasy/techno-thriller mashup series, and I love to read fantasy, sci-fi, and some horror.

Looking forward to sharing some time here.

I'm not a big reader of horror.

More into fantasy, sci-fi, thriller, suspense. I do read horror, but typically where the horror is not the main theme.

I'm Barbara. My favorite books are mystery/suspense but I read all kinds of stuff.

Hi, I'm Shevella. I am married with two sons, ages 24 and 16. We live in West Virginia. I enjoy camping, fishing, and swimming. I've always loved reading and it's my favorite way to relax. I typically read contemporary and historical fiction, psychological thrillers, and some horror but am open to reading just about anything.

Hi Everyone,

Hi everyone! My name is Susan. I'm a retired banker and widow who just moved to Houston, TX to be near my son, but not too near. I love reading, in particular mysteries, history, bios and especially paranormal or supernatural, as long as it doesn't get stupid since I'm a certified paranormal investigator and researcher. I am, however, not a fan of romance novels. I enjoy crafts, walking and traveling. My down fall are the words sale, clearance, free and bargain. Other than that, I'm just a normal senior citizen who tries to stay healthy and am grateful for each day.

Aaron, thank you so much for the invite.

Being a paranormal investigator sound very interesting. Maybe sometime you could share some of your most memorable experiences with us :)

Hello everyone!

I'm Karin, 34 years old and I live in Belgium with my husband, two bunnies (Merry and Pippin) and two guinea pigs (Sam and Rosie). By day I am a writer and by night I am a reader. Or vice versa. ;)
I love reading classics and crime novels, but my first love is fantasy. Also I'm openminded so I'll try about any genre.
Thank you for the invite, Aaron!

Hi everyone, I'm Rima from tunisia 25 years old. I'm a civil engineer student. I love reading novels in english french and arabic.

Hey Rima! Welcome! :-)

Hi everyone. I'm Iasa. I read almost any genre of book, but I am not especially fond of YA. Other than reading, I spend a lot of time hiking and fishing and tending the kitchen garden. We have a house full of wee beasties, of both the 4 and 2 legged variety.

Hello, I am from Canada and I love to read books in French, especially children's books. Recently I have been able to finish some children's novels :-)

I also like to read French fashion magazines or sewing books in French if I can find them.

Welcome Anis! Wow French... I had French class at high school, but I can't read it anymore. I should pick it up, because last year I moved to Belgium and it is one of the official languages here.
I hope you will enjoy your time in our little group! :-)

Welcome Anis! I'm French and I love children's books! Hope you will have fun in our group!
Happy reading!

Welcome Anis!

Hi everyone! I am Maya, I am a thirty something, child-free, professional living in New Zealand with my fabulous partner of nearly 9 years.

I fell in love with reading when I stumbled upon Roald Dahl's 'Danny the Champion of the World' at the age of 11. I now find myself reading biographies, memoirs, self-help and spiritual books of authors often featured on Oprah's 'Super Soul Sunday' program and Tedtalks.

I love doing Yoga, Pilates, Zumba and meditating, spending time in nature and being creative. I also enjoy being a foodie and always have a new idea for dinner etc

My reading interests include psychology, sociology, research and spirituality.

Thank you Martin for inviting me to the group. I have enjoyed our buddy read and look forward to more!
