Dawn (dawnv) | 4058 comments


Welcome to all the new members!
This group was originally created by Jess and Kelley Anne back in 2008. They were both really into PNR and UF; as you may guess they wanted to talk about books and thus this forum was borne. I am very excited to say this group has continued even though the creators have stepped down and to them we say “Really well done!!�

We are a relatively active group with a lot of threads and a lot of folders. In order to make this less daunting we have created this guide to help you along when you are first starting out.

To begin we have four moderators in this group: Alisa, Dawn, Lisarenee, and Sandra.

To learn a little more about who we are and what books we enjoy please check out the following threads:
Alisa
Dawn
Lisarenee
Sandra

Next, please stop by and introduce yourself to the other group members: Introduce Yourself

Links to the most popular threads:

What are you reading? Part Drie this is the thread where people discuss the books they are currently reading or plan to read.

Discussion thread for AOM
The author of the month is chosen by our members, polls are done every month and the winner is the AOM for the current month while the runner up becomes the AOM for the following month. In this thread you will find the author’s bio as well as a thread for all of the series that author has written

Discussion thread for the current BOM’s
The book of the month is selected via random.org, members can nominate two books (one in the UF/PNR category and one in YA) the winner and runner up will be the two books for the UF/PNR category while the winner of the YA will be the BOM for the YA category.

Here's a link to a thread that explains the various threads and folders:

Folder Explanation 101

Please feel free to PM any of the mods if you have any comments, questions, or suggestions and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

Again Welcome to Who’s Your Author. We hope that you discover lots of new authors, fantastic books and new friends.

From,
Dawn, Sandra, Lisarenee and Alisa :)

L.A. Brown | 6 comments Hi, my name is Lara. I have always loved reading and writing since I was a child. I have just recently published my first book that is a series. I love all genre really, however, fantasy and paranormal has a special place in my heart. I enjoy curling up on the couch with a good book that I can get lost in.
I am looking forward to the group, discussions, and the book suggestions! It is nice to be here and I look forward to getting to know you all. Feel free to add me as a friend as I am always up for a chat on books or writting. :)

message 27: by Kendra (new)

Kendra Bowman | 3 comments Hello all! My name is Kendra and last year August, I discovered the Black Dagger Brotherhood. This, in turn, drove me head-over-heels into the PNR/UF genres :) Since then, I've read most of the big names in those genres, and decided it was time to reach out for help because I've run out of books to "get my fix"! :P Looking forward to awesome recommendations, and will generate a list of my favorite authors thus far at some point. Cheers!

Click the add book/author link above the box to open the link and then click "cover".


message 39: by Erica (new)

Erica (readingdiva8511) | 109 comments it doesn't have that. only says comment with a white box


message 40: by Sandra, Need more time to Read!! (new)

Sandra | 4718 comments Sorry Erica, I only use the desktop on goodreads.

There is sure to be someone on here who uses the android app, but perhaps they aren't going to read this thread.

So I've added a thread that might help :)

My favorite series are: Mercy Thompson, Crossbreed, Legion of angels and The lazy girl's guide to magic (that one was hilarious). I've just finished the queen of the Tearling by Erika Johansen.
