Andrew (Lochgilphead)

I am a retired 59 year old divorcee living in a wee house in a wee town. I enjoy cooking, walking and, most of all, reading. I enjoy modern fiction, current affairs and history. A book group would allow me to share my passion for reading with others.

Orbital

by Samantha Harvey | Buy this book

A meditation on the beauty of the Earth as seen from the International Space Station. Short but powerful.

AnnieVC (Dunoon)

Hello! I have recently moved to Dunoon from Glasgow and am keen to engage with my new community. I’m an avid reader of pretty much everything - literary fiction, historical novels, crime; I also love poetry and drama. Since taking early retirement 10 years ago I have taken up art and needlework. I’d like to find a group of like-minded locals to share the enjoyment of reading.

Gillespie and I

by Jane Harris | Buy this book

It’s set in Glasgow at the time of the International Exhibition at Kelvingrove and the protagonist befriends a fictional member of the Glasgow Boys art group. There is a mystery to be solved, but as the story is presented to us by an unreliable narrator it’s not clear what is true and what is not. The description of setting, both time and place, is very atmospheric - and the main character is a very interesting individual. It’s a thought-provoking read!

Lmac (Dunoon)

Love to read - currently going between fantasty and crime thrillers.

To join

PicklePie (Lochgilphead)

Recently moved here from London, in my defence as a Sassenach, on my paternal side am Irish and maternal Scottish. Yes I do like Haggis and Stornoway Black pudding. Would like to meet people and extend my literary genres,along the lines of : “ If you liked that,you’ll like this.” Although not a “Sky-fi*” fan,* as my Mum called it! Recently bought five books in one go at Argyll Book shop! Lots of my books are still in lots of moving boxes and they’re bloomin heavy! Favourite authors: Pat Conroy; Isabelle Allende and Joanna Cannon. Though you’d never guess from this boring intro, I like a laugh and don’t take myself too seriously.

Victoria (Tarbert)

I am an avid reader and would like to find other, local, bookworms.

Jen (Oban)

I’ve never been in a book club before. Im in my early 60’s and live in central Oban. I read books very occasionally and would like to read regularly so joining a book club would discipline me, I would enjoy the discussion and meeting together as a group.

Susan (Campbeltown)

Morag S (Oban)

I have just moved to Oban ans looking to join a club - I like Jane Austin and Donna Tart - probably my favourite authors

Catherine (Dunoon)

I am an avid book worm and like most genres of books though admit I'm not a great Mills & Boon/reader. I also enjoy talking books from the library - ideal for when insomnia kicks in😊

R255 (Inveraray)

I’m in my mid-20s and I love to read historical fiction and fantasy, as well as feminist non-fiction but I generally choose from a large variety of genres. I’d like to join a book club nearby where I could meet like-minded people.
