Hi there!
Name's Kurt Gavin Fernandez Abdollahi, a mouthful, I know, so I usually just go by Gav or Gavin, but, feel free to call me what you like!
I'm a 14 year old book geek who likes fantasy, funny
, thriller and ya books, but I'll like anything as long as it's good.
My fav books are And Then There Were None, LOTR, Mistborn, Hunger Games, This Savage Song, Divergent, Harry Potter and To Kill a Mockingbird.
My fav authors are Agatha Christie, Brandon Sanderson, and J.R.R. Tolkien.

I'm Edge and i'm almost 15 (so technically, I'm still 14) I like fantasy, YA, classics, children's, and a bunch of other stuff... so yeah. My fave authors are Dan Brown, John Green, JK Rowling, Rick Riordan and Jennifer E Smith.

SAME!

I'm Rachel, I'm sixteen. I mainly like historical fiction and classics, but I'll read anything with a promising premise. I love a good story. My favorite books are Picture of Dorian Gray, Twice Freed, and Big Little Lies.

Uh, uh, favorite author. I like Conn Iggulden most but...I can't call one. I'm picky.

Hi Gavin
Its a mystery story set in the UK. It starts with the protagonist (a woman) receiving a phone call- then it goes to a reminisce about her meeting a girl in her uni days, going back to the girls house, meeting the brother, the neighbour gets shot by the girl-brother goes to prison for it, the protagonist ends up looking after the girls abandoned baby & passes it off as her own. When the girl finally resurfaces in their lives (the phone call) the protagonist meets her at a supermarket construction site and murders her by pushing her in a hole & covering her with concrete.

It's been driving me mental for ages - I can't remember the title, the author or anything much apart from the plot.

A favorite of mine is court of thorns and roses (but acomaf is waaay better let's be real) and I desperately neED acowar.

Hi, Deborah! Welcome to RIF!
Hunger Games was also the series that led me to other favorites... For me, though, it was Divergent, not Harry Potter.
