Find a Book Club

I'm an avid reader of romance/fantasy and anything with dark/gothic vibes. Looking to find readers who also enjoy devouring a good book and getting lost in other worlds.

I love phycological thrillers as well as authors like Adele Parks but should make an effort to try other genres. Hopefully making some new like minded friends would be a bonus too.

Bridges Of Madison County

by Robert James Waller | Learn more and buy

Though it's a romance (not to everyones taste) l loved the story line, and his use of descriptive English. Its a small concise book, full of wonderful words & phrases

Kirstin (Market Harborough)

I'm a 36 year old mum of 4 and I run my own business. Reading is how I relax and I usually get through 1-2 books a week. I love fantasy, anything sort of magical or witchy and moving and poignant novels. I can also devour a good thriller within a day. I'd love to meet other women nearby who also love to read and maybe make some coffee buddies too!

I'm a fantasy lover at heart, and there's nothing I enjoy more than getting lost in a beautifully imagined world. I also have a soft spot for historical fiction and any story with historical elements, especially when it brings the past to life. I'm looking forward to discovering new books, sharing recommendations, and chatting with fellow book lovers!

Sebastian (Evesham)

Hello, I'm 28, I have always liked reading, I like all sorts of genres, but recently I feel like I have only been reading for work more than anything, which takes a bit of fun out of it, it would be nice to explore books I would probably not pick up otherwise and share opinions on them.

Sara Fox (Stratford-upon-Avon)

If character driven family sagas are your thing, I'm your gal! I'm a writer with the first in a historical family saga (A Legacy Forged) based in Birmingham published and the second on the way. Spin-offs about individual characters are also being released this year. I'd love to connect with book club members who'd like to explore my Seller & Son series and people interested in receiving advance reader copies in exchange for reviews. I have an ARC ready now and another in spring 2027. I'm based on the Warks Oxon border.

A Legacy Forged

by Sara Fox | Learn more and buy

Set in Victorian Birmingham's Industrial Revolution, this is a warm hearted family saga about working class people striving to succeed despite family and criminal conflicts. The well researched Brummie historical nuggets please those who enjoy historical fiction. RIchly drawn characters with a plot unfolding over a series.

Shannon (Manchester)

Hi! I’m 30 and live just 15 minutes away from Manchester town centre. I’m looking to make some new friends discussing my number one passion: books! I mainly read fantasy, but have recently been expanding out into horrors, thrillers, and sci-fi. Have a wonderful day! :)

The Final Empire

by Brandon Sanderson | Learn more and buy

Every single moment is actin-packed, and every single book in this series has a fantastic twist and heart wrenching moments, the conclusion of this trilogy has really yet to be topped in my eyes! This introduced me to Brandon Sanderson‘s writing and just cemented him as forever fave and immediate auto-buy author for me.

The Forgetting Moon

by Brian Lee Durfee | Learn more and buy

The characters (especially the dog, Beer Mug) are such a wonderful mix of likeable and easily despise-able, the world is vast and well crafted, and the stakes are so high, you have absolutely no clue. What will happen next!

Assassin’s Apprentice

by Robin Hobb | Learn more and buy

Do you want your heart absolutely shattered into a million teeny tiny pieces? If yes, may I introduce you to the amazing Robin Hobb and her poor fictional child; Fitzchivalry Farseer. I love this book so much I submitted my own beaten, loved and annotated copy as part of my Masters dissertation.

Lucy (Seaton)

Hi! I'm 26 and live in East Devon. I'm hoping to meet some new people and hopefully make some genuine friendships. I love reading and will happily read pretty much any genre, so I'm always up for swapping book recommendations. I also love coffee, wandering around garden centres, and doing crafts like crochet, and I'm also trying to get into watercolour painting. I'm pretty laid-back and happy to meet up as little or as often as suits. Whether it's grabbing a coffee, having a browse around a bookshop or garden centre, or just having a chat about the latest book we've read, it'd be lovely to get to know some like-minded people.

11.22.53

by Stephen King | Learn more and buy

The number of pages in this book can seem quite overwhelming at the start, and with it being a Stephen King novel, there is a perception that it’s going to be a thriller, but it really isn’t. It’s such an addictive read, and the fact that it had so many pages actually made me sink into the story even more. I loved the vintage feel of it and all the characters. It’s one of those books that completely draws you in and makes you feel immersed in the world.
