|

Hello!
Let me answer the questions the generous site owner has suggested. (I’m glad he’s done it. The introduction is always the hardest part for me.)
Where do you live?
I live in Chiang Mai, a province in the north of Thailand, a country in Southeast-Asia.
How old are you?
I’m turning 24 this October.
Are you a male or female?
I’m a female.
How did you find BookTalk?
I searched for “online book discussion reading group” on google.com.
What type of books do you enjoy the most?
What I enjoy reading are mostly novels and juvenile books, along with some poems. Do quotes and song lyrics count?
Well, I guess that’s all for now. I should have added more but this is just a start and to pay respect to the process the site owner has advised. Now I want to go right away to the discussion page. I will definitely come back and add more details later. All I wanted is to make sure I don’t skip the introductory thing. At least you all know I exist and mean to be a regular or frequent visitor, not a passer-by.
By the way, English is my second language. I hope you will excuse my inappropriate or incorrect use and advise if I make any wrong move.
It’s nice to meet you and wonderful to have found this place.
With a D.I.Y. bunch of flowers and a friendly smile,
Wid-Sha-Ya

Hello, admirer from Thailand, I'm so glad you joined!
Ralphinlaos is going to be thrilled!
It's brave of you to come when English isn't your mother tongue, there are a few (very few yet) other members like you, so join the club:  |

Ophelia & President Camacho,
Thank you so much for your warm welcome. It's 8 am in Thailand and your messages give me a good start for the day.
Gratefully,
