Kiki | 14 comments Hi guys, I'm Kiki, just recently turned 32 years old on July 6th. Mama of a 2-year-old toddler. I abosolutely love reading YA PRN books, and I enjoy the feel of physical books as well as the simplicity and convenience of reading on my Kindle. Happy there are many moms out there who feel the same way I do about reading PA novels! :)


message 14: by Adele (new)

Adele (mooturtil) Thanks for Inviting me, Adriana.

Hi Everyone My name is Adele, I turned 30 earlier this year.I'm From Melbourne Australia and i'm Not a Mum ...yet!

I love my YA books, But i love all sorts of books mainly Fantasy/paranormal etc.

I have a love hate relationship with YA. Some books i love, and some books i scream at the character then end up loving the book anyway. I just wish that they had the range of books that they have now, when i was of the age that you read YA stuff.

message 20: by Jody (new)

Jody Hi, my name is Jody, 36, living in melbourne. I have 2 boys, 10 and 7, also a little girl who is 3. What can I say my life is very busy and I find reading is a way to escape for a little while. It's calming and relaxing and I just can get enough. I love Y.A books mostly but enjoy lots of styles. There is nothing better than good wander around a bookstore, well maybe a good coffee and a good book.

It's so great to know that there are so many of us who love reading YA books...like Adele said wish there was more YA books growing up


message 25: by Marimirl (new)

Marimirl Hi! I'm Marianne and I'm from Austria. I joined goodreads just few days ago and still have to find out how everything works.

I love Y.A. books, even if I also read a lot of other stuff. Oh, I forgot: I'm 23 years old and maybe not in the target group of YA novels, but who cares? I don't really know why I love this kind of books, I guess because it is really exciting to read about first love etc. if it is not the main topic of the book.

I hope my english is good enough to keep up with you as it's not my mother tongue.
