Just drop in and introduce yourself to the rest of the members.
Lemme start with myself:
I'm Shambhawi, 18 years old and obsessed with YA books. I'm from Nepal and I've not met many people from my part of the world around the reading community. My other obsessions are coffee and watching reruns of Phineas and Ferb.
Hi! I'm Kara, I'm a senior in college who's majoring in history but plans to go to grad school to be a children's/YA librarian. I'm from PA and I absolutely love reading! Other things that I absolutely love include my fiance, my family, my friends/sorority sisters, Netflix (I'm a HUGE tv junkie!), and pizza :)
Hi, I'm 23 years old and I love ya.
I also love music, iced coffee, watching tv, watching movies and that's pretty much everything you need to know about me!
Hi! I'm Margaret, an advertising and Marketing Rep for InD'tale Magazine. I enjoy reading young adult and am always glad to hear of a new author or book in this genre recommended to me. Glad to be a part of the group!

Hi, I'm Valz and I have always enjoyed young adult literature although I am now at bit confused about new adult fiction.
Hey! Nice to have you guys on the group!
@Valz New Adult is a relatively new genre with the protagonists between 17-25 years old. It is directed towards older audiences with more mature topics. Almost like a bridge between YA and adult books.
Hi I'm Sandy and I adore Young Adult - I read any genre. I work, when I can - write, but read obsessively. And I love finding out about new books coming out.
Hi, I'm Eden and I'm from Pennsylvania. I'm a writer and have been writing since I was 14. I love to read, all kinds of books, but I tend to read a lot of YA. I also like to play video games, travel, go to Powwows, learn about my Cherokee heritage (and other heritages as well).
Hi, my name is Cassie, I'm 25, and I'll never be too old to read YA. YA fantasy is my favorite. I have an hour and half commute to work each way so a lot of the "reading" I do now is in the form of audiobooks. I prefer actually reading the words myself, but audiobooks make my drive seem much shorter. In addition to reading, I love playing PC games (Civ V is my current favorite) and writing poetry.
Hi, I'm Libbie, 45 year old mother of two young adults. I've been an avid reader since I was able to read on my own and a lover of all things romance since my mother handed me Victoria Holt's On the Night of the Seventh Moon. I read mostly YA, but I do branch into adult books every now and then.
Hello, everyone! Lovely to meet y'all!
I'm Danielle, 18, and majoring in Theatre Arts. YA is the best genre to read -- more entertaining, fun, and just an incredible adventure to experience. I try to keep an open mind when reading, though I quickly get impatient. Though I'm from the city, I have this country side to me (not just saying y'all 24/7 LOL!): I love farms and small villages. I listen to a variety of music genres (yes, yes, country included). I LOVE laughing, and I hate being stressed. Just looking forward to what life has in store for me (the same goes for books).
Hello! My name is Ally, I'm 24 and I live in the UK. I love to read YA fantasy sometimes with some other stuff occasionally thrown in there. I also love to write reviews complete with a health dose of snark ;D I love my cats, piercings and show jumping, and I love to talk books. Wow, I love a lot of stuff huh?! I'm forever an optimist I guess. Looking forward to getting to know everyone!
Hi all! Isa here. I'm in my 20's and from the Philippines. So I'm a YA junkie, a social network noob outside GR, here to keep in touch with buddies I've made and hoping to meet more like minded folks. but back to books: while I love contemporary reads that lean toward the darker grittier more emotional tales, I do in fact read just about everything.
Hi, all. I read most anything, but YA is a favorite. I live in Oklahoma in the US, and am old enough to be a grandma, but I'm not one. I do have creatures, cats and dogs, and I also work with creatures, dog-training, feral cat management, pet rescue, and pet therapy.
I also like movies, tv, food, gardening, family and friends, and meeting new people -- this list is not in the correct prioritization, but oh well.
Glad to meet you all.
