The first and most important thing is to know all the members of the group. Please go ahead and introduce yourselves :)
Feel free to ramble on and on, there is absolutely no limit!

My introduction:
My name is Heena Rathore and I'm a 23 year old 3-D animator. I love reading, watching movies and Sit-Coms. I also love gaming, sleeping, blogging, writing and travelling. I'm a music maniac and a cleanliness freak. I love, love, love dogs, specially GSDs!
I'm happily married to the love of my life and believe in The Universe.

Happy Reading... :)

Hi everyone! My name is Megan and I'm a 24 year old kid. I work as a web content specialist by day and a librarian assistant by night. I love to read (duh), blog, dance, yoga, and am trying to get myself to be a kick-ass runner. Wheee!

Hi Megan! Welcome to the group :)
Even I love dancing. Though I'm not a good runner still I try to run every other day. Glad to know you :D

Hi fellow bookjunkies!

My name is Magdalena Johansson, and I'm a 34 (soon 35) years old Swedish book hoarder who spend to much time with my nose in a book and have a tendency to spend my hard earn money on books. I work as a fill-in cleaner at Volvo (perfect jobb for me since I get a lot of time to free thinking). I also love watching tv-series and when I have time for it movies. I like to take long walks when I actually get outside.

Also I have a cat, Caesar. He thinks he is the boss!

Hi, I'm a professional astrophysicist, author, blogger and musician. When not studying the furthest depths of the Universe, I write for magazines on science, write, perform and produce music and blog on anything that makes me think. My first novel has just come out with Wimbourne Books.

Hi Magdalena! Welcome to RMFAO :)
It's so nice to know about you! And Caesar is such a cute name for cat.
We'll have a discussion page for movies and TV series as well, will discuss a lot there! :)

Hello Alastair! Welcome to the group :)
It's so warming to have an author on-board. Looking forward to know more about your novel :D

Hey everyone! I'm Quentin, I'm a horror author and horror fan, although I am interested in several genres and have written in different genres as well. I love to read as much as I love to write. I'm fairly new to goodreads but I've been having a blast here so far. I hope everyone is doing well!

hi everyone i am mark from the Uk. i am a big reader and collector of books(look at my TBR) ;)

i read mainly fantasy and historical who dunnit. also read non fiction history and historical fiction.

i do branch out into other genres when i am in the mood to read something different.

First of all, kick-ass name for a community!
I am Titas, age 23. I am currently pursuing a Doctor of Philosophy in Physics degree after completing my Masters of Science in Electronics.
I love reading and drawing. I even read the vouchers if I have to go marketing with someone. Every-time I see an exciting offer on books, I go Zoidberg. A die hard fan of crime/ suspense thrillers and mysteries and comics.

My taste in books may vary from Macbeth to Dan Brown,
But if you mention Twilight, I will punch you in the face,
My taste in music may vary from Beethoven to Eminem,
But if you mention Bieber, I will kick you in the end.

Hi! My name is Stefani, and I’m a mismatched socks, overflowing bookshelves, pot of coffee a day, Sonic Screwdriver, paint all over my fingers, rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock kind of girl with alopecia. I work in a library as a circulation clerk and young adult librarian as well as remotely in publicity for a publisher. I also have a book blog and write books and comics reviews online for WatchPlayRead.com. If you couldn't tell, I love books.
Thanks for inviting me to the group, Heena!

HI All,

I'm Raven, I don't read nearly as much as I would like, or used to. This is a fatal flaw caused by near ceaseless working on my own writing (be it writing short stories, novels, or editing the afore mentioned). I write horror and urban fantasy/paranormal.

I live in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by crop fields, in an old converted school house. Married for over two decades, and have four cats, one St. Bernard, six sheep and too many ducks and chickens.

I'm on disability due to severe bipolar disorder which can be trying but at least I have time to write.

Thanks a lot Titas and welcome aboard! And man, are you a geek! Wow, you study some pretty heavy stuff, huh!
Good to meet someone who loves to draw, I also love drawing :)
I like Twilight (please don't punch me! lol!) but I second your thoughts about Bieber, I also hate him!

Hello Heena and everyone else,

Thank you for the invitation.

I'm a mystery/supernatural/horror/thriller writer and I'm very, very old. You persuaded me to join this group because you like GSDs! I've had three :)

My TBR list is so long and I'm so stupidly busy with writing, that I will be doing little extra RMFAO, but I will try to add the odd book and attempt to join in the discussions.

Good luck with the group!

Hi everyone! My name's Jenni! I'm 25 and a mommy to the light of my life my little 9 month old boy, Mario. It's hard to find any time to read these days lol, but I'm making up for it by reading to my son. I love the classics and some science fiction and young adult books. I also read manga and comics. Glad to be in the group! :)

Heena wrote: man, are you a geek!

Oh yes I am! With a big head for stuffs and story books to gobble down! (I hope that sounded normal) :D

Don't worry I won't punch! I have come to live with the sad world where people are no more afraid of vampires *sigh*

Thanks for inviting me, Heena. x

Hi to everyone and thanks to Heena for inviting me. My name is Andrew I'm 41 years old Italian and I am a software developer. I love reading, watching tv series and movies, playing chess and make some sport.
I read many different genres, but I prefer Sci Fi, fantasy and thriller, with a little bit of Horror.

Hello, Thanks Heena for the invite.

My name is T.W. Barton (Ty to my friends :-) )

I'm an Indie author on my journey to self publishing of a vigilante thriller series. I'm blogging my journey.

I am a relatively new reader in that it has only been the last 5 years that I really caught the bug. I post my reviews on my review page and also promote authors and books on twitter.

Hi Everyone!
Thanks to Heena for inviting me! I love reading and will try to post 1 new review per week on average, but there are some times when life gets a bit out of control and I can't read as much as I like :(
I'm a geologist working in the mines on a fly-in fly-out rotation at the moment, but I'm looking at going back to uni next year to become a middle and high school science teacher! I really want a 'normal' life again T-T
I also write short stories on my blog and have written full-length novels. I've finally got the motivation to self-publish my first book for December 1. I'm so excited :D
Okay! I guess I'll check out all the posts now.

Hello, everyone. I'm Louis, and I'm boring. I read, write books, and raise my kid. That's pretty much it. I have boxes and boxes of unread dead tree books, a Kindle with over three hundred unread ebooks, and plans to buy more of both before the year is done. Reading's been my passion since I was a boy. The older I get, the less TV and movies I watch, and the more books I read.

Hi Jenni, welcome to to RMFAO :)
It's really sweet of you to try and make time for reading inspite of having such a young baby. Respect!
And Titas is right, if you keep reading to him a lot, then soon we'll be having you beautiful baby joining the group (I really hope he does, can't wait to get to know him :) )
have a great day dear :D

I usually read at bedtime, but my little guy is already trying to teach himself to walk. He's getting really good at standing up without holding onto anything. o_o So, by bedtime I'm so exhausted I can only ever get a couple pages in before my eyes are closing involuntarily.

That's pretty much it! lol! You're kidding right! Raising kids is the hardest job and I believe it itself is the big thing you're doing :)

Wow! I appreciate your reading commitment :)
And how lovely! I wish Mario all the luck in the world and pray that he is always healthy, weathy and wise ;)
Just let him learn walking once, he'll make you run behind him like hell!
Please keep telling us all about his progress in learning all the wonderful new stuff :)

Hi! I'm a little late to the party, but I'm here.

I'm Lori.
I read and I write. I've published 3 full-length novels and one short story this year. I was shooting for 4, but am a bit on the jaded/burnt-out/drooling side right now, so I'm taking a break before my next big idea. :)

I run a book review blog for mostly NA books, but we have varying tastes and read a little bit of everything, not just NA. You can check it out here: .

We also offer beta reading (free) and have an editor for hire!

My reading tastes are all over the place. I mostly like dark stuff about broken people. I mean certifiably broken people. :) Taboo relationships are fun to read about.

I don't like the broken record "rich man-poor woman" storyline, but that's just me. If it's erotic, it should have some sort of a plot and not just page after page of mind numbing sex for the sake of sex.

I love a good psychological suspense/mystery and if you throw in an insane asylum -- even better. I consider nothing too taboo to read about.

There you have it! If you have questions, just ask!

Lori

My names Matt and i work for a an online learning management system. (we provide safety training for truck drivers and school bus drivers). I love sci-fi and fantasy. really give me a book with something magical in it or beyond belief and I'm likely to give it a read.

Music wise I like pretty much any thing from 50's to current day fallen in reverse. a little country, some blues, what ever I love music. I only watch a few tv shows right now on a regular basis Once Upon A Time, Gotham and The Walking Dead sum it up. I've caught a few episodes of scorpion and it seems decent though.

I'm lucky enough to get to review books at jcbookhaven.blogspot.com which I hope to continue doing for the foreseeable future.

I like books about broken people too. Much more interesting.
Also, I don't know if you read comics, but you should read Arkham Asylum if you like psychological stuff with an insane asylum thrown in. :)

You and I are realllly on the same wavelength here!

Wow! If you haven't already, then you can try S.J. Bolton, John Verdon, Karin Slaughter, Thomas Harris. They have written excellent psychological suspense novels.
