Book Junkies discussion

Introduce yourself if you've recently joined.

Thanks for joining, Martha:)
I guess I should introduce myself as well.
I'm Hannah and I read. And I'm the mod, so if you have any suggestions for books you want the group to read, you can send them to me.
Or vote on the poll. Either way, it works:D

Hi, I'm Eric and I'm a book junkie ;)

Hola, Eric:) I'm glad you're a book junkie. We wouldn't let you join otherwise:D

Hi I am Tana, I am a huge book junkie, my kindle has so many books on it I don't know how I will read them all

Hey Tana:D You're lucky; I don't have a Kindle yet. Still stuck in the age of paperbacks and hardbacks. Imagine me lugging those around all the time!:)

Welcome to Book Junkies!

Hi everyone, I'm Catherine, and well I am a book junkie. So thanks for the invite Martha! I also have what feels like a million ebooks and I always have my bookshelf dedicated to library book rentals full!

Hi Catherine! Welcome to the group. We'll be starting our first group read in June. You can vote on the poll on the Book Junkies page to help decide which book we'll read first:)

Hi all. I have 902 books presently on my Kindle, but am always adding more.

902. Wow. Book junkie!! Welcome to the group, Mark:)

hello I am new :D

Hi Sary. Hope you'll like Book Junkies:)

Hi everyone!
I'm Ruty (Ruth)

Hi :D I'm Rachael. I have too many Kindle freebies (I download a few a day, but that adds up!) I'm not sure how many are on there, I've never bothered to count or check.

Thanks for the invitation Martha!

Hi Rachel. Basically, what Martha said. Have fun here:)

Hello, Everyone! Thank you to Martha for the invitation! I'm a reader and a writer. I like to read a variety of books, the only thing that I need is a story that grabs me!

I'm a writer of contemporary romance with erotic elements (so far). I am working on a outline for a paranormal, but I have about 5 other novels to get out first. My first novel, The Future of Our Past published in April and the second should be out very soon.

I look forward to exploring the threads on this group.

Thanks again for the add!

Welcome Kahlen!:)

Hi, I'm Sophia. I really like to read and I really love music.

Hi. My name is Nancy. I'm retired, so I have more time than ever to read. I'm currently into women's fiction, but I really love to read anything, even cereal boxes, if there's nothing else around.

My favorite author right now is Elizabeth Berg. Not great literature, but fun, entertaining novels.

Hi, Nancy! Hope you'll like Book Junkies. Feel free to participate in any of the discussions. Glad you're here:)

Hi! My name is Courtney & I'm just getting back into reading. I would rather have my kids see me with a book than on the computer. I'm currently into books based in the Southern States. Books that have a little of that old Southern history & traditions. But my taste varies.

Hello! My name is Christina. I love to read anything I get my hands on!

Hey, I'm Jess! Reading anything as long as it's got a few good reviews. Always read the blurb :)

Hey there, I'm Alicia! I've always been an avid reader, and even more so now that my husband is deployed. My favorite go-to is fantasy fiction, but I'll read anything. :)

Hi there! My name is Kate and I'm a huge reader (obviously)! Always looking for recommends!

hi I'm Arran, from the UK. I'll read pretty much anything except erotica, its just not to my taste, and will happily turn off the tv for the evening and sit in silence. Not so easy with four kids, 3 with ADHD, and a plethora of beasts to look after and entertain. I'll accept recommendations for books as i tend to go through them quite quickly and i may eventually get of my backside and write. just as soon as i finish my book list and feed the dog :P

By profession I'm an engineer and by choice a slacker other than that if you want to know anything else just ask. Oh and I'm a huge proponent of ereaders.

Hi everyone, I was looking to join a group and saw Book Junkies! Perfect, I love the name and like to think I am addicted to reading. If I don't have a book on the go my life feels not as good. So, I read all the time. I do have a wonderful family who seeps up a ton of energy (and gives me tons of love) but going to bed and reading is a peaceful end to a day. Thanks for having me.

Everyone wants recommendations so I thought I'd pass this onto all. I just finished a book called "The Magicians Assistant". It was different from everything else I've read - the author had this way of putting me in a trance while reading it. Enjoy and I'd like to know what you think.

Hi, everyone, since I've been known to read every word on the back of a cereal box, this is probably the right place for me. I'll try to keep up, but I'm in the midst of writing my sixth book in a mystery series, so this is my dessert--and I'm sort of on a diet!

Mahalo! Alli here~ Glad to be part of this group!!! Happy book junkie-ing :)

Hi, I'm Jenni, just found this site through FB. Still navigating all the links and information provided here. But I love to read almost everything, never got too much into Westerns, Erotica, or Sci-Fi, but am open to it if they are highly recommended. And hope that Goodbooks will be a source of genuine insightful recommendations. Thanks so much and hi everybody!

I'm with Martha here. Wow, a sudden large amount of new members. Really do hope you all have fun and enjoy the discussion threads.

Hi!I'm Marija!Hope it would be grate in this group

Hello all, I'm Sheila. I loved the group name and I am for certain a "book junkie" love them on my kindle, from the library, yard sale find, whatever. As many of you have already said, "I'll even read the cereal box". Just feel like waiting anywhere without a book to read is a waste of time. Read just about anything and I'm hoping to share and get some good leads from the group.

hi im lacey. I am certainly a book junkie, i will read anything. I dont have a favourite genre or author. At the moment im recovering from a knee op so i have lots of spare time on my hands and have spent about 80% of my time reading.

Oh, I probably should have told all of you what I write. First, there's the Kiki Lowenstein Mystery Series, about a young, single mom in St. Louis who is a scrapbooker by choice and an amateur sleuth by force. (I, the author, force her into that!) Next is my new series, which will debut August 7, called The Jane Eyre Chronicles, and the first book in that is called DEATH OF A SCHOOLGIRL. It;s set in 1820 and features Jane Eyre as an amateur sleuth. I also write a third series under an assumed name.

Welcome to the group everybody! While you are here, don't forget to have fun:P

Hi I'm jasmine from Canberra, Australia. I love reading paranormal romance and young adult. I particularly love stories about werewolves and vampires. I am currently reading

Hi, Jasmine!! Anna Dressed in Blood has been on my TBR pile forever, I really wanna read it! Is it good so far?

Hannah wrote: "Hi, Jasmine!! Anna Dressed in Blood has been on my TBR pile forever, I really wanna read it! Is it good so far?"

Yeah its been on my TBR pile forever also. I have only just started reading it, so far so good.

That's good. Welcome to Book Junkies ^_^

Hi, I just joined the group. Want to get some good book suggestions.
Love Nabokov. My short story is free today.

Hi im' Fabio from Genova, Italy. Music and litterature are my whole life, and i need them just because, otherwise, i'd become totally crazy. I live art like musician and writer but i don't think i'm that good...i love classics and novels from beat-generation, and i absolutely love Poetry. I also aprecciate spiritual essays and books about Yoga and misticism. I joined this group cause i hate to "categorize" books and i prefer to live them like a only thing, whitout great distinctions.

Sorry if i made mistakes but i'm not English ^-^

hello :) like lots of other people, i love reading! my kindle easily has over 800 titles on it, and i have a ton of paper and hardcover books too. sincerely looking forwards to the reads for next month!

Hello, my name is Tera. I love reading and am looking to broaden my horizons! I tend to get stuck on one genre of books, so I'm looking forward to trying new things! :)

Welcome, Tera, Kelly, Fabio, and Anthea! I really do hope you all enjoy the group and have fun participating in the discussions ^_^

Lucile from Alaska. I'm in two book clubs but this one looks interesting. I read books from every genre but default to mysteries and odd ball. This group may fit the odd ball.
I look forward to reading the books chosen.

hello all, I am tim and have just spent the last 3 or 4 hours going through books and adding them to my shelves... goodreads is slightly addicting.

Hi guys! I'm Teresa and I'm 18, currently a student at uni in Australia! And it was the word "eclectic" that got me to join! Mainly because when people ask me what type of books or music I read and listen, my answer is usually "...really anything that catches my fancy." There's no specific genre I read/listen. If the music can get me dancing and singing along, and the book can get me daydreaming and falling into the story, that's all I need.

Music and books are my life. Can't have one without the other, but I'm also an amateur writer and a librarian-to-be, though I've still got a couple of years in the course before I graduate and can officially become one!

Martha, I hope you do! I'm really excited about the Jane Eyre book. I always loved Jane Eyre.
