Brandy R | 9 comments Hi! Name is Brandy. She/her. Love reading but just like the group name... I don’t do it enough. There is so much good TV these days it’s easy to turn it on and set a book aside “for later” and then not pick it up again... for a long, long time. I have inattentive ADHD, 2 kids, 1 cat, 1 dog, 1 hermit crab, 1 bearded dragon, 1 husband, and 2 chickens (not ordered by importance lol.) I also love Stargate! SG-1 was probably the first sci-fi show that really sucked me in. I love campy stuff like that and Xena.

Alyson (mcjerz) | 5 comments Hi everyone!

I'm Alyson (she/her/they), I'm in my 30s but still love YA fantasy/scifi. I also like to read other scifi/fantasy, historical nonfiction, current events, social justice related nonfiction, and more! I just really love to read.

Like everyone else though, I definitely don't read enough and I also just started taking college classes again, so I have less time to read now too. I am however starting out this year with the 3rd book in a fantasy trilogy called The Licanius Trilogy. I was honestly hoping to finish these books before for the New Year JUST so that I could try to boost my 2021 numbers by getting the last 800-page novel out of the way in 2020, hahah. No such luck though! It has been a really good series so far though and I cannot wait to finish it.

I think it's pretty cool that the group seems to have quite a few younger/teen members! I'm a bit older but I read soooo much as a teenager which is part of why I still love YA fiction. Can't wait to see what everyone is reading!

Lastly, I started watching Stargate SG-1 recently thanks to the power of suggestion of Ash's username. I loved the movie when I was younger but for some reason never watched the show. I'm midway through season two right now!

Alessia Canzonieri (alangod) | 1 comments Hi, I'm Alessia, 23, from Italy.
I have picked up again the habit of reading, after decluttering my room I noticed I had a lot of books left unread, I aim to read all of them so I can downsize my library and have a little collection of all my favorites!
As of right now I'm very into nutrition books (especially plant based diet and longevity)

I hope to learn a lot more this year and find new books to fall in love with!

Belén Guillamón Brotóns | 2 comments Hi!! I’m Belen from Spain, just 17 years old and I just began the habit of reading everyday. There’s really not much to say, I dont have a specific genre that I like to read in particular: I’m really open to anything that is interesting and see other point of view!:) But I do like historical novel tho.
