HI, I'm Katie...and I would simply die if I didn't have a good book to read :laugh: I've just started 'Snow Drops' by A.D. Miller, which is really good. When i was out shopping today, I couldn't get past the book shelves and found what I have been waiting for.....Ken Follett's Winter of the World (second part of the trilogy: The Century). The first part, Fall of the Giants, was excellent.....and now I can't wait to start the second part. Would also recommend 'Pillars of the Earth' and 'World without End'. However, I have to try and discipline myself as I am studying for a PhD at the moment....and reading no where near enough for it!!:blushing:

Hi I'm Mallory and reading is a huge part of my life. I've always got a book on the go, and the library is my favourite place. Glad to see there are other out there who love to read as much as I do! I've been reading a lot of young adult fiction lately because I love series, but I also love to read more serious novels. Looking forward to getting some great recommendations for books I haven't read yet! Hope I can give some ideas as as well = )

Hello I am Michaela.

I used to read a lot more, but latley I seemed to be stucked on bad books for too long which I cannot lay aside, cause I want to know how they end. Stupid I know, but I cannot seem to drop a book (thats why I am currently making my way trough book 3 of the shades triologie) *sight*

Hope my next choices are going to be much better, as I have the game of thrones books as well as some other shapeshifter and vampire books (naming Lara adrian, Christine Feehan, Pamela Palmer, Lori Handeland here).

I also used to read Ken Follet and I think I will also look into Lee Child soon, as my husband thinks they are really good!
Hopefully I will even find some good book advices here!
Have a great day/ night all! And Happy reading!

Bookworm check in I have a new-to-me Kindle Fire and I love it. Im currently reading The Medium by C.J. Archer (I got it free from Amazon). My tastes are pretty eclectic. If you are on GoodReads I'm MdmAcolyte over there too.

Happy page-turning!

Hi...I'm Kristin and I am an avid reader and so is my husband! I always have a book with me wherever I go and about 2 and a half years ago, I actually started a blog to share my thoughts on books - and aptly named it "Always With a Book." (http://www.alwayswithabook.blogspot.com/) I have found so many good books and new authors from blogging and now even receive requests to review new books - so fun!

My reading habits have certainly changed since starting my blog. I used to only read physical books but recently started listening to audios and now put some on my iPod to listen while at the gym or walking outdoors. I can also now have more than one book going at once - right now I have 3 going - 2 audios and 1 print. And yes, I do have an e-reader which I use every once in a while, but I just love holding a book in my hands!

I tend to read women's fiction, historical fiction, psychological thrillers, mysteries and romance. Occasionally I will read nonfiction, but not too often.

Hi, I'm Melissa I am an avid reader spanning many genres and styles. I also own a Nook Tablet and most of my collection is on there. My favorite authirs include Stephen King, Diana Gabaldon, George R.R Martin among others. I will admit I am also a history buff and of all the books I own(including samples) I would have to imagine that my history shelves are the most populus. Feel free to friend me all are welcome.

Greetings! I'm Justi. I was reading The Girl Who Played with Fire...but my poor Kindle died a horrible, painful death. I don't really stick to one specific genre - I read anything that strikes my fancy. My "to read" list is huge and I hope to get through more of it when I figure out a way to either fix or replace my poor little Kindle.

Hi, my name is Amy. I love to read. I'm getting ready to start "The Twelfth Child" by Bette Lee Crosby.

I am definitely an avid reader. It's been great reading all the posts from other readers. I really like thrillers and mysteries, a good romance, and nonfiction too. I read Destiny of the Republic by Candace Millard and have been begging B&N to stock her other book. Other authors I like include Patricia Cornwell, John Sandford, Vince Flynn, Dean Koontz, Diana Gabaldon, just to name a few. While I read series I've found recently that they tend to run together i.e. Cornwell's Scarpetta books and Sandford's books so I have to break and read another author in between. I've been considering Preston and Child since their books appear to be quite interesting.

Hi
Im Jem. I LOVE reading. My mum is a librarian and is a big reader too. I have to read everyday and read each night before bed. I love all different kind of books depending on the mood i am in at the time!

My eldest child (6years) is a huge bookworm too, his fav toys as a toddler were books and he has an incredible thirst for knowledge as well so he often reads non-fiction books. We are currently in the middle of reading Geronimo Stilton books and Roald Dahl books

My name is Tricia, I have just joined MFP and I have always loved reading. Currently I am re-reading "Healthy Living From the Inside Out" by Mariel Hemingway. It is an awesome down to earth book that everybody can use.

Hello, everyone! I'm Lindsey, and like everyone who is in this group, I love to read. I will literally read anything and everything, even if I end up not enjoying the book. I love finding out which movies are being made based on books and then read them beforehand to compare. As I'm sure most of you have said a million times, the book is always better. Like I said before, I read everything from Twilight to John Greene books to Harry Potter and weird ones that most people never even hear of. I love Brad Meltzer and J.K. Rowling, and think that Stephanie Meyer is some freaky kind of genius (werewolf in love with a baby? who gets people to love that?!). Anyways, I read actual, physical books as I do not have a Kindle. I just think that I love the actual book so much that I would not enjoy a Kindle. I also have to buy the books that I read and can't sell them afterwards (I have a miniature library in my room, it's pathetic). I am currently reading It's Kind Of A Funny Story by Ned Vizzini. (feel free to add me)

Hi, I'm Kim and I always have a book (or my Kindle) shoved in my face. Have books stashed everywhere and usually have 6 or 7 going at one time. I'm a book junkie.

Hi My name is Sandra and I love reading and I love discussing books. My book club is going to read:
The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared [Paperback]
Jonas Jonasson. Apparently it's good and some Year 12 boys read it and told me it would make for good for discussion
If anyone else would like to read it I would be happy to chat about it.
Here is a description from Amazon that I found:

It all starts on the one-hundredth birthday of Allan Karlsson. Sitting quietly in his room in an old people's home, he is waiting for the party he-never-wanted-anyway to begin. The mayor is going to be there. The press is going to be there. But, as it turns out, Allan is not...Slowly but surely Allan climbs out of his bedroom window, into the flowerbed (in his slippers) and makes his getaway. And so begins his picaresque and unlikely journey involving criminals, several murders, a suitcase full of cash, and incompetent police. As his escapades unfold, we learn something of Allan's earlier life in which - remarkably - he helped to make the atom bomb, became friends with American presidents, Russian tyrants, and Chinese leaders, and was a participant behind the scenes in many key events of the twentieth century. Already a huge bestseller across Europe, The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared is a fun, feel-good book for all ages. Translated by Rod Bradbury.

Hi! I'm Rachel.

I'm a fellow bibliophile. I enjoy fiction and can usually be found with my nose stuck in a book, electronic or otherwise. I'm currently rereading the Honor Harrington series by David Weber in preparation for the release of the newest book in the series, Shadow of Freedom.
