LadyH Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hi everyone, I am new and just wanted to say hello to everyone - sorry as I am not very good with things like this and knowing what to say! My favourite author is John Connolly - I read a lot growing up but for one reason or another (some dark times) I stopped reading until a few years ago when I picked up a copy of Every Dead Thing from the airport (funnily enough it was simply because I liked the cover) and never looked back. I'm 28 and currently working crazy hours but read as much as possible in my down time (and secretly in the bathroom or kitchen - one definite positive about having an e-reader!) I love thrillers and mystery but am looking to broaden my library (by 'library' I really mean Kindle as I don't currently have the space at home to own all the books I would like to except for a minuscule bookshelf!) and I don't really know anyone else who reads so I thought I would try something like this Hope everyone is having a great week so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alicedrinkwater Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Hi and welcome! The only John Connolly I have read is The Book of Lost Things, which I loved. I hope you find some more authors and books to enjoy here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna Faversham Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Hello LadyH and I am also a Kindle reader - it's the convenience! I can take it around with me and read in any spare minutes. Also, like you, my bookcases are overflowing. I have just started reading a Barbara Erskine book, something I saw recommended on here, so I hope you will find it a positive step joining us - I'm new too.

woolf woolf Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) Welcome, LadyH. I never read anything of her, but there are some Daphne du Maurier fans here. Edited July 29, 2015 by Sousa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echo Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Welcome to the forum! My older brother is a hug fan of John Connolly, and he gave me Every Dead Thing for Christmas 2 years ago, but I haven't read it yet, which endlessly irritates him as he wants to talk about it with me. Maybe this is a sign that it's time to pick it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
