Introduction..

Hey, my fellow readers. This is going to be my first official blog post. Pretty exciting, right!? But honestly? I have no idea what I am doing. I don't even know where to start on all this. Should I post some reviews? Change my theme? Post something? I really don't know so I thought I should probably say some stuff about myself and this new blog. So here it goes...

My name is Rachel. I love to read. Obviously. I started this blog to get a chance to show people why I love reading, to meet some friends and talk to like-minded people.

What do I like reading then? Well, isn't that a loaded question? I am not too fussy about what I read. Some people stick to genres or age levels, I go without sounds good. I do prefer young adult, though I frequent middle grade and have been dabbling a little into new adult and adult books recently. I'll read paranormal, fantasy, dystopian, sci-fi, contemporary, romance, mystery... anything that tickles my fancy.

I am also a total fangirl when it comes to TV shows. I love Bones most. Its been a huge weakness of mine for about five years and I have see every episode about a hundred time over. I can pretty much recite them of by heart. (My the way, I have dibs on Hodgins and Mr. Nigel-Murray!) I also love NCIS: Los Angeles (Deeks! <3), Castle, Ghost Whisperer, Grimm, Friends, NCIS (original), Elementary and Big Bang Theory.

Other faves of mine include:

Movies - Harry Potter (all of them), The Host, Snow White and the Huntsman, Mary Poppins, Spirit, The Sound of Music, Hunger Games, Catching Fire

Food - Fruchocs (totally addicted!), salt & pepper calamari, vanilla icecream, dark chocolate, Granny's home-made fettuccini (Yummm!)

Sport - soccer, and dance (if you think that that counts).

Other activities - drinking coffee, singing (though I can't hold a tune to save myself!), hanging with my mates, movie marathons, writing

And that's all I can think of at the moment... so hopefully this blog is going to be up and working as soon as I can figure everything out.

For the time being don't hesitate to follow me on Goodreads or email me: rachelsreadingcorner@gmail.com if you have any questions or some advice for me on running this blog.

Ciao, for now and I'll be back soon.

Rachel

  2. Saw your post on Goodreads and thought I would check it out. I like the simplicity of the page. It's not overwhelming like a lot of blogs are. I guess you can say I'm a simple kinda gal. Keep up the good work. Now I sound like a teacher. *shakes head*
