jynx Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 Hi all, I'm new to the forum, love reading books - all genres & I also like to write poetry occasionally. I'm hoping to make some new friends & share the books I'm reading & get ideas for new ones to read. Quote

jynx Posted June 9, 2012 Author Posted June 9, 2012 Thanks for the warm welcome I'm looking forwad to contributing some & getting to know everyone. Quote
vodkafan Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Welcome jynx. You came to the right place to get ideas for new reads, a good percentage of books I read now are recommendations from others on here. You say you like all genres, do you have any favourite authors though? If so why do you like them in particular? Quote
jynx Posted June 10, 2012 Author Posted June 10, 2012 My favourite all time author is Terry Pratchett - I adore his books mainly because of the richness of the characters & the fact that he has created a whole world which continues in each book - its like going home each time I start reading one!! David Eddings is a close second with the Belgariad because of the depth of the characters & the bond that forms as the main character grows up physically & mentally. Finally I love horror - I grew up on Stephen King books & slowly got into Shaun Hutson, Graham Masterson & Richard Laymon. I like more psychological horror rather than blood & gore to scare me though! Quote
