message 51: by Emily (new)

Emily Hey I'm Emily. I'm a print journalism and studio art major.... planning to go to law school (thank God for a liberal arts school that let me do this). My brother is an English professor and got me started on this site since I was constantly asking him what I should read next. I have a hard time finding time to read for myself during the school year, so I'm happy to have a break so I can do some catching up.

Welcome Emily!!


message 53: by Ashley (new)

Ashley (ahol15) | 2 comments Hi eveyone! I am just joining this group! I am 22 and just started going back to school for nursing fall of 09 so I have quite some time left!! I love reading and so I hope this will keep me reading as it's hard to read leisurely when I keep telling myself I should be reading my textbooks instead!!

Rayna  (Poindextrix) (poindextrix) | 59 comments Welcome! And don't feel bad about reading for fun instead of studying 24/7. You have to have some sort of release or you'll go crazy.

Amber Jackson | 2 comments Hello everyone! Just discovered this place! My name is Amber, and I am 27. I am from The Great State of Texas! I am a Criminology major and currently reading The Devil in the White City. The books you have for the monthly reading look interesting. Might have to give them a shot!

message 59: by Richard (new)

Richard (nemzep95) | 448 comments Hey everyone, I'm new to the group and to Goodreads in general (just made this account last night). I'm a Sophomore in college and 19 years of age. I'm really looking forward to being in a book reading group cause I'm always looking for new books to read!


message 60: by Richard (new)

Richard (nemzep95) | 448 comments Well I'm probably going to be majoring in Psychology. When I first started college I didn't even think of doing this, but once I took a psychology course I fell in love. It also helped when Zimbardo (the prison experiment guy and writer of psychology text books) visited our school!

Kelly A. | 499 comments Welcome to the group Mim, Richard, and Kelsey!

And Kelsey, I will share! I'm majoring in psych; I'm taking Developmental Psychology currently, and I think it's my favorite psych class so far. We are studying toddlers right now....toilet training is apparently a very moral issue.


message 64: by Chris (new)

Chris | 93 comments Hello,

I'm a senior at the University of Florida; history major with a focus in Russian and a minor in education. One more year and then I start a master's in secondary social studies education. I'm between semesters right now so I get a brief reminder of what it's like to have a life. I'm sure that will disappear again once classes start but till then, time to read. YAY!


message 65: by Emma (new)

Emma (emmasabaker) | 2 comments Hi! My name is Emma. I'm an English Education major with two years left in school. I definitely have to agree that reading pleasure books during the school year is definitely tough, but I'm hoping a book group will push me beyond chilling out with netflix while breaking from homework. Plus, I find myself getting into a routine with reading - I'm looking for new books and broader horizons.

message 68: by Richard (new)

Richard (nemzep95) | 448 comments Welcome Emma! That's actually the reason I joined goodreads and this group. And so far it hasn't been a letdown. You'll love it here!


message 69: by Yelena (new)

Yelena (Yaltman) HI everyone and thanks for the great welcome! I just graduated undergrad and going onto grad school. Even though I read a lot for pleasure in undergrad I figure that I'll need the extra push in grad school, so here I am.

message 75: by Niel (new)

Niel | 390 comments Hey. I justed join this gruop and i'm sixteen and i'll be going to collage soon. I just started reading for fun a few years ago and so far i like this group.


message 76: by Amanda Hanson (new)

Amanda Hanson | 1 comments Hi! I'm Amanda. I somehow came across goodreads yesterday and decided to join. I figured this was a lot easier than my 20 random to-read lists that i can never keep up with. Anyways, i'm a baby in this group; i move into my dorm and begin freshman year in a week!! So i love reading although i find it difficult to find good books as none of my friends are readers and i'm hoping this will be a good place for discussions and recommendations. Ok long rant over, i think i'm gonna enjoy this group:))


message 77: by Elaine (new)

message 81: by Judy (new)

Judy (judesx) Hi everyone, I'm an OT student in Canada.
This seems like an awesome group and I'm looking forward to finding out about new books!


message 82: by Jonathan (new)

Jonathan Perez | 2 comments Hey, guys! I just joined the group. Not technically a college student at the moment (have 114 credits with a semester to go but had to leave school because of financial and family matters) but I suppose I'll continue considering myself one until I get my diploma, heh.


message 83: by Janet (new)

Janet Alright...well I am not really new. I have actually been a member for awhile and was really active with the group. Then it just kind of stopped. I am hoping that I can come back and be a way more active member...if you'll let me everyone! :)
I am not a college student anymore, so that might be a problem too. Are you allowing non-college memebers? I just graduated last December. But I really miss this group and enjoyed it greatly before!
A little bit about me..I graduated from University of Northern Colorado in December '09 with a degree in Special Education. I just got married this last July 10th. It was an extremely special day! I have 2 dogs (one is a puppy) and a Guinea pig.
Anyway I am just planning on starting over with this group so I apologize if I repeat anything that has already been said! I am really excited to be back...if you'll let me! :)

Merc (oswinssouffle) I joined goodreads and this group a couple days ago. I am a college student who is a couple quarters away from declaring her major as Psychology. :)

Jen (wishesandwanderlust) | 696 comments Welcome Marina!


message 94: by Agnes (new)

Agnes Hey everyone, I am a 24 year old college student (I took 2 years off before I went to college) My major is secondary education in English.

I LOVE to read pretty much anything I can get my hands on. I love finding people around my age that feel the same.

I am in a book club in my community with the woman all around 40.....soooooo needless to say I get excited when I find people my age that enjoy it as much as I do.

Can't wait to learn more about everyone else :)


message 95: by Diana (new)

Diana (smiffyblues) Hello! My name is Diana and I'm a freshman studying biomedical engineering in California!

I love reading, though I haven't had as much time for it lately as I'd like ..

I also love drawing and arts&crafts!!


message 96: by Christal (new)

Christal (nazwok) | 1 comments Hi! I'm brand new to goodreads so I'm glad I found this group so quickly. Anywho, I'm an English Lit major and a lifelong book lover. I'm one of those non-athletic former outcast kids, so books have been a refuge for me, and now i have the added bonus of them hopefully becoming a steady source of income in the near future.
Can't wait to start the December books with everyone!
