Hi everyone *waves*
My name is Samy and I love reading YA, I started reading them because English isn't my native language and for some reason I found them easier to read. Now I'm addicted to them LOL This is my first time doing this, but it looks like fun already ![]()

I tend to lean towards cozy mysteries. Although my favorites all seem to include cats! I especially the stories that describe the animals who have a lot of personality and spunk. I have always meant to read the Lillian Brown (sp?) series and the Rita Mae Brown series, but so many other titles come up!
I don't think I could have ever been a vet, I could probably have run a no-kill shelter though!

I wanted to be a veterinarian in college & then changed (mainly due to the biochemistry & trig) but I have always shared a love of animals and the little critters.
I started out reading James Herriot books on the animals & developed a love of reading with those & Hemingway novels.
I love the cat mystery series- even went to B&N when the author came to our area to promote her newest cat mystery book & had several signed.

To StewiesMom:
I have read most of the Rita Mae Brown books in the Sneaky Pie series. I found them to be really fun to read. The animals all have different personalities. The mysteries aren't completed, but they are fun and easy to read. I think you would like them. ![]()

Hello Everyone
My name is Tai and I'm from FL. I am an avid reader mainly YA with other genres sprinkled in when I find something that grabs my attention and now that I own a nook I go out of my comfort zone even more thanks to free fridays. 8-) This will be my 1st First Look with Barnes and Noble however I have been a beta reader in the past. Still awaiting confirmation though.....
Happy Reading!

Hello! I must say I'm new to the B&N First Look group, but it seems like such a welcoming community so I'm happy to join in. I'm a life-longer reader who can't live without a good dose of YA in my library. So happy to find other like-minded readers.
And oh my! Don't you just love this cover? Seriously. I want that dress. I'm excited to see what goodness the book contains within it's pages.

I agree. The cover is stunning. It immediately drew me in and made me want to read this book. Can't wait for the BBT to stop at my door!

Just signed up, hope it's not too late! I'm pretty excited about this. I've been an avid reader since childhood and I've always wanted to participate in something like this, but never found the opportunity. So, I'm happy that a friend told me about this!
