Welcome from me, too, Marty. I lived in California for years--my children were born there. Now I am in Western North Carolina, the other end of the state from where I was born.

Hi everyone! My name is J.F. Pérez and I am from Spain. I have started my writer career seriously this year. Apart from author, I am a recent graduate seeking his first job. Fantasy and Science-Fiction are the literary genres I love. This is the list of my favourite authors although I hope to find out new ones in this group:
J.R.R. Tolkien
Alison Croggon
George R.R. Martin
Isaac Asimov
Stephenie Meyer
Nowadays, I am finishing reading The Riddle by Alison Croggon, which I recommend.

I like networking so feel free to add me as a friend or drop me a message.

Thank you so much for your interest and attention. Best regards.

Welcome, Sam. You have already read some very good books. I hope you enjoy it here with us old folks!

Welcome Claudia and Ann Marie. The favorite genre here is mostly the literary novel. I hope you join in.

Welcome all! Dive right in!

Hi, My name is Cynthia and I look forward to reading and participating in the Group's discussions. I've downloaded the July book onto my Kindle for my vacation next week. All I can say is "so many books, so little time."

Welcome, Cynthia. I'm glad you're be with us for the discussions.

Welcome to all the new members. This is a lively group that enjoys spirited book discussions. Dive right in!

Welcome, Cynthia. I'm hoping that you are referring to Behind the Beautiful Forevers: Life, Death, and Hope in a Mumbai Undercity. I nominated that one and hope to have a lot of people to talk to about it. It is definitely thought provoking.

Hi, I'm Katherine, I live in Southwest Idaho and enjoy reading all kinds of books, though my favorite genres are the classics and well-written historical fiction. My interests include collecting books, writing, and a bit of gardening, all on a completely amateur-level where the pleasure remains intact. The book collecting began almost unintentionally, fueled by the simple fact that many of the books from some of my favorite authors were out-of-print and difficult to find. Couple that with the desire (need?) for an easily accessible personal library of wonderful literature, and voila, long-term hobby.

Welcome, Katherine. You sound like you'll fit right in here.

I am Baelor. I am a recent college graduate and studied Classics (Latin/Greek), but have also always enjoyed Sci-Fi and Fantasy. I tend to have...conservative views on literature and poetry, but am trying to broaden my chronological horizons and delve into some more contemporary "literary" fiction.

I would love some new recommendations, so please add me as a friend on GR!

I also enjoy Greek tragedy, philosophy and logic, and mythology (especially Greek). My favorite contemporary book along those lines is Zachary Mason's Lost Books of the Odyssey. It was life-altering.

Welcome, Baelor. I'm sure just looking at the group's book shelves will give you some new ideas for books to read. We have discussions going back for years.

Hello everyone,
My name is Rachel. I am Dutch-French, have lived in Paris most of my life and just recently moved back to the Netherlands. I’m a mother of 2 girls, a visual artist and mature student of psychology. New to GR and first time joining a book club. I love the format of this group- including the short stories and poetry- thanks for having me:) I purchased the books for August and look forward to participating!

Welcome, Rachel. Glad to have you here.

Hi to my friend Katherine! Thank you for coming over!

Hello all,
My name is Suzanne and I live in a Maryland suburb of Washington D.C. I have been an avid reader since my teenage years which were a very long time ago. I have been a member of a "live" book club for over 20 years and now look forward to participating in discussions with this online book club as well.

Welcome to Constant Reader, Suzanne. The nice thing about online book clubs is that the discussions can go on indefinitely and you can wear your bathrobe and slippers.

Welcome, Katherine, Baelor, Rachel and Suzanne! You all sound like readers who are going to love this place as much as I do. Rachel, I try to coordinate the short story conference so, of course, I'd particularly love to hear your thoughts there.
