C.J. (Guildford)
I'm moving to Guildford from the N.W. where I have been a part of an amazing book club called 'Crime & Nourishment'. We met once a month to have a lovely meal and discuss our crime read of the month. We had lots of of author visits and as a group went to the theatre, pub, cinema, book/ meet the author sessions/ afternoon teas/reading sessions/ crime festivals. I'm looking for a crime fiction group to join in the Guilford/ surrounding village areas but I am also happy to join a book group that reads other genres too as I also enjoy all sorts of fiction.

Sign in to contactAdina (Northampton)
Hi, I’m Adina. I enjoy books that pull you in and stay with you - whether that’s fiction, psychological reads, or something beautifully written. I’d love to join a group where conversations flow easily, ideas are shared, and it’s as much about connection as it is about the books. Also always open to recommendations!

Sign in to contactpaige (Hamilton)
Hi! I’m Paige, 22, and I’m the founder of the Lanarkshire Women-Only Dark Romance Book Club. We meet every second Saturday of the month in a local pub, where we have our own private lounge with bar and toilets for convenience. Our club is for all women—any age, ethnicity, transgender women, and anyone who identifies as a woman is warmly welcome! We’re all about sharing our love for dark romance in a safe, fun, and friendly space. If you love dark, thrilling, steamy stories and fancy joining us, we’d love to have you!

Alpi (Lincoln)
I am 25F, from Lincoln. I love reading books. I love talking about books. But I want to immerse in the "art" of storytelling, plays, theatre and perhaps meet someone along the way who might be interested in similar things. The last book I read was "The Vegetarian" and that opened a whole can of worms for me to explore society in South Korea. I am like that, I love to go deep into a subject and explore and talk about it. I am a slow reader (working on it) and I am here trying to find a book friend whom I can meet with for a coffee or a glass of wine- go to waterstones- sit somewhere and read a book together...

Sign in to contactTracy (Basildon)
I hope that you are all keeping well. I am just posting this to say that i have read through several of your comments and I can see that there are many of us who would like to join a Basildon Book group. Therefore, I will pop into Basildon library to enquire about setting one up. If they agree, I will post the details on here as well as seeing about putting a poster up in the library to advertise. Looking forward to seeing if we can get one set up Kind regards Tracy D
Sign in to contactStephen Small (Warrington)
I'm an author, and my first novel, 'The Life and Death of Abercrombie Lyle,' is an historical mystery thriller set in fascist Italy with an alternative history twist. My writing is informed by a doctorate in Modern History and a BA in Philosophy, Politics & Economics, both from Oxford University – as well the history of my own family of Irish immigrants to Liverpool in the early 20th century. I've taught history and political thought in several US and UK universities, including UC Berkeley, Boston College, San Francisco State, and St. Mary’s University Twickenham. And I've written several non-fiction works, including 'An Irish Century 1845-1945' and 'Political Thought in Ireland, 1776-1798', published by Oxford University Press. Originally from Liverpool, I now live in Warrington, and I'm looking for book clubs in the Cheshire / Liverpool / Manchester area that would be interested in having a local author join their group for a reading or to talk about their book. If you're interested, please feel free to contact me on: stephen@stephensmall.co.uk Or visit my website to find out more about my writing: www.stephensmall.co.uk.

30 years old and would love to spend time with those of similar interests reading books and chatting over a hot chocolate. I am also really into anything crafty, and so would be happy to share that side of things also. It would also be amazing if I were able to make some (or just one) friends in the process also x

Hi, my name is Kirby, I am 30 years old and really want to find some people(or just one) who have similar interests. I have spent the past 5 years being really poorly and constantly in hospital, I was just a month ago discharged after a 10-month long admission and figured life is too short and now is the time to start spending time & effort on things I enjoy and hopefully make some friends in the process x

Hey everyone, I'm currently an international student at UoR hoping to connect with other readers in the area. I used to be an avid reader when I was younger and I'm trying to get back into reading again. I mostly read fantasy but I'm open to reading any book with a good plot. At present I'm still hungover from reading Throne of Glass last year haha. So if anyone would like to chat about that or read something fantasy related do hit me up!
