Addicted to YA discussion

Hi Cassie! Hope you like the group!

Hi I'm Lynda. I love reading and writing YA books. My genres are sci-fi, speculative fiction, and good general fiction - good being anything that tells a captivating story, regardless of age group. The Harry Potter and Hunger Games series are among my favorite, but I also enjoy John Green, Madeleine L'Engle, and too many others to mention.

Hi everyone. My name is Rachelle. I mostly read YA, romance and sci fi/fantasy books. My favorite YA authors are J.K. Rowling, L.J. Smith, James Patterson, Stephanie Meyer, and Meg Cabot. :)

Hey Melanie and Rachelle!

Hello! My name is Liann, and I mostly read YA and other fiction books of the sort. My favorite author is J.K. Rowling, and I love the Harry Potter series. I also love the Hunger Games, and Divergent, and a whole bunch of other books! Sometimes, I also like reading old books that I remember reading from when I was younger. The simplicity and innocence of the books just brings me back to old times. (:

Well yeah... reading in general is just amazing. (: For a long while I stopped reading, and it was sad. I just started up again, and there are so many books that have come out that I've missed out on, or old ones that I've forgotten and would love to reread. But if anybody has any recommendations I'm completely open!

Hi Liann!

Hey, i'm Caitlin :)
my favourite book of all time is the Book Thief. i just read it a few months ago and was amazed by its poetry. of course, i adore the Hunger Games series. Maximum Ride is also very good. I'm currently reading the Obernewtyn series- i'm up to the Stone Key.
i love to read any books, really. after the stone key, i'm going to start Schindler's List, because i have a huge interest in holocaust literature. and that's me, in a nutcase! :)

Hi, I'm Kate. I'm a YA librarian and love to read YA books... to the point where I joined a book club so I'd read some adult books once in a while! I like mostly horror and paranormal but I'll read almost anything...

Welcome everyone and thanks again for joining! Feel free to send suggestions or add me as a friend!! Have a beautiful day!

Hello!My name is Megan.I absolutely love YA books.My favorite author is Erin Hunter. But I must warn you,I am a kid that is only 9 years old.But I can read up to a teenage level.One of the books I read was Twilight.But my favorite book is Warriors:Sky Clan and the Stranger. All I am looking for is a YA book club just like this.

Hi! My name is Calai from the Philippines. I love YA novels. First YA series that I read is Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and he is my favorite author. I used to read Suspense and Mystery novels, wherein most of the protagonist are Detectives, like the Hardy Boys and Tess Gerritsen's novels. But because of R.Riordan, I realized there are other interesting books out there. I just finished reading Catching Fire and now I am undecided if I should read Delirium first or Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children.

Hi I'm Claire, I read anything YA! I have a YouTube and a blog which I've had since last year and I love it. I don't really have any favourite books now, well I do sort of, but there are so many I love that my list would be constantly changing :).

My name is Marysue Hobika. I love reading YA, so one day I decided to write one of my own. My first book, "Nowhere" is coming out this Spring by Muse It Up Publishing. I have also self published a short story called "The Yellow Canvas" available on smashwords and a novel called "The Perfect Prom Date" available on Amazon.

Favorite book? Only one? I have so many. The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks, James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl, Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom, and the Harry Potter Series by JK Rowling, and the Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyers, and of course the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.

Welcome to the group Kate, Claire, Megan, Calai, Stacy, and Marysue!

Welcome to the group Jamie!

You forgot my 'Hi' !!! :O

Hi!

So, I'm Shelver (of shelversanonymous.blogspot.com).

My favorite book sort of depends on my current mood, but the ones that have their own special shelf are "The Thief" and its sequels ("Queen of Attolia" is my favorite), "Rilla of Ingleside," "Hunger Games" (the book, not the series - I'm still coming to grips with "Mockingjay"), and "And Then There Were None."

My favorite authors? I admire too many to name, but I have special regard for Megan Whalen Turner, Agatha Christie, Tamora Pierce, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Dee Henderson.

So yes, very nice to be a part of the group. I'm very new to Goodreads, but I promise that I'm a quick learner.

Heya, the name's Kayla! Aah I could never choose one book that I love the most, but here are some of my favorites: The Hunger Games, the Maze Runner, Maximum Ride, The Infernal Devices/Mortal Instruments, Divergent, Howl's Moving Castle, Harry Potter...the list goes on! I just love to read in general :)

Hi everybody! I'm new here so thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Rachael from the UK and I have been addicted to reading for as long as I can remember. My book collection consists mostly of fantasy books of all kinds, grown up ones as well as not so grown up ones. I love everything from the serious to the silly and everything in between. My favourite book ever is Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, but my favourite books to read at the moment are absolutely YA and Urban Fantasy books. Feel free to message me or add me, or you'll find me pottering about on the message boards... I look forward to speaking to you all soon :)

Hi all, my name is Megan, and I'm a middle school English teacher, so I get to call my YA reading "work-related". My favorites tend to be fantasy and sci-fi, and I'm really into the trend of dystopian lit. Favorite YA authors include J.K. Rowling (yay HP!), Scott O'Dell, Celia Rees, and Walter Dean Myers.

Hello, my name's Susan. I can't really say what my favorite book is because there are so many I like. But I suppose it would be the Hunger Trilogy at the moment. My favorite authors are Eoin Colfer, Frank Beddor, Suzanne Collins, Meg Cabot, Garth Nix, Angie Sage, and Tamora Pierce.

Hi everyone! My name is Kristi, but I publish under K. L. I am an avid reader and writer. It's so hard to pick a favorite book or author. But right now my favorites are the Infernal Devices series and Wicked Lovely series. Fave authors would have to be Melissa Marr, Cassandra Clare, Becca Fitzpatrick, and Julie Kagawa.

If you have suggestions, feel free to add me as a friend. I'm new on here and I also just published my first book, Sweet Burden.

Thanks!

Hi, I'm Malinda. I love, love, love books especially in the paranormal romance section. Currently my favorite book is A Discovery of Witches, which I know isn't a young adult book, but it is still pretty fantastic. I don't really have a favorite author, I love the many flavors they all deliver. I like Shelly Crane, Nicole Williams, Rachel Higginson, Maggie Shayne, and list keeps going and going.

Hey everyone!

I'm Kristin and looks like I'm late to the party, but my favorite new YA series is Cassie Clare's Mortal Instruments! In love with those books and read most of them in 2012!

Currently reading Lauren Oliver's Pandemonium and loving it as well! (Also have a giveaway going on on my blog if anyone's interested...I'll leave the link below)

Hi! My name is Morgan and it's impossible to pick just one favorite book...but if I had to, I'd say mine is "A Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley." I just recently started reading YA again. It all started with Hunger Games. I'm a middle school teacher and several of my students liked the books. I was immediately hooked. The best YA books I've read this year are Divergent,Crossed & Matched, Graceling & Fire, Delirium & Pandemonium, Clockwork Angel & Clockwork Prince. I just finished the Ironking and want to read the next 3 books in the series.
