Amanda (Bootle)

I'm looking to meet like minded people who enjoy reading/nice people! I've enjoyed reading The Pianist, Thursday Murder Club, Weyward and The Lighthouse Witches in the past year after a fairly long break from reading. I'd like to get back into reading more again. I've never really read fantasy but I think I'd love it. My fav film is Avatar. I like themes exploring consciousness and mystery in life and in books. I've read quite a lot of books that were made into films and I enjoy watching films with a live orchestra too. I love stories with an underdog of any genre and seem to like books with a war or sports theme of this ilk. I've recently started reading feminist literature too. I'm 48 :)

It was so immersive and I love stories with roots in real life. The characters were so rich and it was really moving. You felt for the young man and how he had to grow so quickly when his world is turned upside down

Beautifully written story about an Irish family at the time of the Great Hunger. A character-driven story that manages to tell the history of that period through the lives of the characters, who are unusual and completely engaging.

Toni (North Shields)

I'm a 37 year old housewife who enjoys reading fantasy such as dark academia, YA and dark romance. I enjoy Brandon Sanderson's various books including his adult series' and his YA ones, James Pattersons YA books as well as well known books such as Forth Wing. I also enjoy what some would class as children's books with authors such as Darren Shan, Garth Nix and Derek Landy. I enjoy dystopian books. I love exploring new concepts and new characters. I also watch alot of Anime as I feel like they're able to explore for concepts than regular TV does. Dislike biographies, mystery books and adult horror.
