Hello!

Hi! I'm Liz and I'm a bookaholic! No seriously I've been a reader for 40 odd years but am a late convert to ebook readers. I started last year with a Sovos reader and was given a Kindle 4 just before Xmas. My tastes are varied - currently I'm enjoying the fantasy genre but do like the occasional thriller or piece of chick lit. I do like the classics and if had to pick a favourite author Austen just nudges it ahead of Brontes.

I was until recently a homemaker but now have a part-time job which allows me to chat books with a couple of like minded colleagues. I have two teenage children and am always on the lookout for books for the younger one (a boy) to keep him reading - a difficult task as the majority of the literature aimed at 12-16 market is romance, vampires or spies none of which interests him lol!

Hope to meet and chat with other bookaholics and find recommendations for good reads!!

Regards

Liz

Hi Liz and welcome to MobileRead.

Excuse me, we're not bookaholics here. We're enthusiasts. Well, okay, we're rather focused enthusiasts. Okay, okay, we're addicts. But we could kick the habit. We could. Sure and we could flap our arms and fly to the moon!

Shoot this isn't working out like I planned.
