message 1: by Mpauli (new)

Mpauli Hi everyone,

I'm Michael, 37, from Germany. I enjoy all things SFF, so my favorite genres are Fantasy, SF, Steampunk and the occasional UF mixed into it.
Once in a while I read YA, but the majority of books you're going to find on my channel are adult books.

I'm really excited to go on this bookhunt with you guys and look forward to our journey. :)

If you like to pay me a visit on Youtube, you can do it here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaqr...

Kelli (potterdancer) Hi everyone! I'm Kelli and I'm from SoCal. I've always loved to read, ever since I was little. I mostly read fantasy, contemporary, and dystopians, usually of the YA genre, though every once in a while I pick up an adult book or a classic. My channel is potterdancer and I can be found here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNTw.... Looking forward to this group!

Jacquie Marques (jacquie_fortin) Hi people! Thanks for the invite. :)

I'm Jacquie. My favorite genre is fantasy too. I own and read a lot of YA but I try to read a mix of YA and adult fiction. I'd like to get into reading more graffic novels sometime soon.

I'm excited to check out everyone's channels that I haven't already seen and read with you all. :)

message 4: by Sabrina (new)

Sabrina Rourke (steakuccino) Hi, I'm Sabrina. I read loads of different genres but I've recently been on a fantasy and contemporary YA kick. I especially like classics.

I've been living in Japan for the last couple of years so I'm not really up in the most popular stuff. If I haven't read your favorite, I'm sorry! It's probably on my list somewhere!

I have a booktube channel at http://www.youtube.com/steakuccino and I am doing a year long challenge of reviewing every book I read which is super challenging!

I hope you'll check it out. I look forward to talking with you all about books!

Justine (justinen) Hey!
I'm Justine, I am a 24 year old from Canada. I love to read any genre in the YA category and weirdly enough I also love biographies/ autobiographies.

I'm excited for this group. Thanks for the invite.

message 9: by [deleted user] (new)

Salutations! I am Elvina Drake, but I would prefer it if you were to call me Elf. I wear a cloak to school, and I love writing and am working on my own book as well as a couple with my friends. I love fantasy, steampunk/clockpunk, and sci-fi. Though the first part is more prominent. Of fantasy, my first choice tends to be epic/high fantasy, followed by urban fantasy. I don't have any sort of book blog.

message 13: by [deleted user] (new)

Just what I need, to join another book club. Haha! But, because Sabrina invited me, I had to say yes.

My name is Liz, I live in the US-Midwest, and I am 32 years old. I have a YouTube channel, Liz'sBookBuffet (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC85T...), where I discuss books in a wide range of genres and age-groups (i.e., middle grade, YA, adult, etc.). My go-to genres are literary fiction and hard science fiction. I do love classics, so I tend to have a healthy supply of them around. I see at least one familiar face from another of my book clubs (*claps*). Looking forward to more book exposure.

message 38: by Caroline (last edited Aug 20, 2014 03:49PM) (new)

Caroline Keeth Hey, y'all! I'm Caroline, I'm 18, and I'm a Louisiana girl living in Texas (But about to be moving back to LA). I'm homeschooled and really just love reading anything I can. In the past few years I've had a new found appreciation for the YA genre and some of my favorites are "The Hunger Games" trilogy by Suzanne Collins, The "Divergent" trilogy by Veronica Roth, and "The Grisha" series by Leigh Bardugo. I am also writing my own YA currently, and I hope to start seeking out an agent early next year.
I'm not strictly a booktuber, but I do have bookish things on my channel because I love them so much: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh-C...

*Forgot this part: Favorite genres are hard for me, but I do tend to lean towards Sci-fi, Fantasy, and dystpoian/futuristic. I don't really care for paranormal/supernatural.

Eleanor (wordsinstars) | 3 comments Hi all, I'm Eleanor, I'm 16 and from England!
I will read pretty much anything given to me, but my favourite genres are fantasy, Sci-Fi, and dystopian.
I review for 7thpage.com and you can check out my blog at taurieleanorblogs.tumblr.com - I want to make a YouTube account one day as well.
My favourite series would have to be Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas, but if you know me then you know I find it pretty impossible to choose favourites...of anything really!

Naomi (naomimarye) Hey everyone! I'm Naomi and I'm a 20 year old bookworm and TV/Film junkie from California. I'm planning to go back to school in January.

message 48: by Emily (new)

Emily Jennings | 1 comments Hi everyone,

I'm Emily and I'm 15 years old. Thank you so much for inviting me to this group! I don't really have a preferred book genre, I'll read nearly everything. I have always loved reading... I guess it just takes me away from the stresses of everyday life. I strongly believe that there is no such thing as a bad book, you can have your opinion but it's literature and we should thank the author for producing this art.
Well that's me! :)
