I sent a gushy fangirl email to MWT, and she replied with an invitation to dialogue with the (ostensibly) equally gushy fangirls here.  People who have read my favorite books - a miracle!

I just found out about KoA recently - I reread QoA again after two years of separation, and looked it up online as a lark. I had a mild heart attack about ten minutes later when I found out there was a third book, and ordered it from Amazon right quick. 

I have the beginnings of a diatribe on Eugenides and Irene in my head, but it seems imprudent to foist oneself upon a community immediately, especially when one has only read forty posts back and might be infringing upon another's wild ramblings. It's also the end of a very busy day, and I'm not completely coherent, so I wil let it stew for a while. I'm not especially proactive when it comes to participating at livejournal, but I am going to lurk (if not attempt the occasional participation) at Sounis with all of my heart.   

Anyway! I'm Nina, and I'm seventeen, and I love these books. Love 'em.

Hi Nina! Welcome to the comm! Post your pin on the map, and join the madness!

:-)

Lurk away until you get your bearings. No way you will seem any more mad or incoherent than some of the other postings coughWillowcoughJade*

Welcome!! Please ignore Peggy, she's more reprobatish than I am.

And I am VERY coherent. Except for times like now, when my football team is going for the touchdown. GO BRADY GO!

YEAH TOUCHDOWN THANK YOU RHEMA I FORGIVE YOU!!

And yay for finding us. Feel free to diatribe. We love that sort of thing.

Hi Nina. Welcome to Sounis!

Don't worry about infringing upon anything. If we've discussed it before, we're probably willing to discuss it again.

Yay, new person! Welcome! This community is awesome. I've been kicking around here and perpetually missing all the chats since April.

Who's the one who involved her own CHILDREN in an epic quest to reunite me with a fictional character?

Costis says thank you, by the way. :-b

Welcome Nina! I was going to say something about how we're not all insane, but I can see from what you said in The Conspiracy Room that you'll fit right in.

Feel free to stick a pin on the map, post to the com or wander into the chat room again.

Hey! Welcome to, Nina!

I am Becca and 19, and they are my favorites as well. ^^ One of my greatest missions in life is to convert others to Gen-love.

Welcome! We are all gushy about MWT books here! If anyone tries to set you up with a fictional character, politely say no. Trust me. It's complicated.

Feel free to post whatever you like. There's always something we miss and new views and ideas are what the comm is for!

BTW: we need to find you a title. Everyone is our little court has one. I am manymouths and official poster and reminderer.(hence, :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD)

Ah Megan, ourloveissoreciprocal. :)

Hello Nina; nice to meet you!

I don't know if you're into fanfiction, but I feel that it's my duty to pimp inform you of the existence of our community devoted to fanfiction based on MWT's lovely books. Check it out at [livejournal.com profile] queensthief_fic. :)

So yeah, welcome!

Yes, but only on the condition they re/re-read the books! Even Alex had to to re-read KoA Friday night, so he could be a credible Aris.

And I never set myself up to be a Role Model for Motherhood (ask my kids - they'll tell you!).

You Reprobate!

Wait, Alex was Aris!!! You reprobate! I feel guilty about flirting with "Aris" now. (BTW everyone: that was only to try find out who was behind it all. *hears Jade say, "Yeah right, Emerald!") OMG! Peggy - I am torn between thinking you are an incredibly cool mother and worrying for your kids' sanity.
