Linda (Bristol)
I am looking on behalf of my mum linda. She lost her husband,my dad,coming up to 2 years ago. As she was his full time carer,she's has gotten out of touch with people and due to being hard of hearing,has lost her confidence. Reading is something she has always loved but has gotten out of the habit of picking up a book due to no spare time. Now that she is living alone and due to compilation family reasons,I cannot visit enough,and I want her to enjoy her life. She is retired and has plenty of time.

Hannah (Bristol)
I'm looking to join a book club as I have moved back to Bristol after being in London for the past 7 years. I picked up reading again over a year ago and thought it would be a nice way to meet some new people whilst reading! I like lots of genres but my top three would be thriller, romance and fantasy

Been in a book club for a while but would like to join a new one to get new perspectives and meet some new people. Open to reading anything but ideally something a bit intellectually stimulating and well written. For example just read Han Kang for the first time - amazing!

Sign in to contactCatherine (Bristol)
I read all genres but particularly like anything with a strong female character! I also love children's books and spend a lot of time reading to my 4 year old daughter. Hoping to find some great new recommendations and an excuse to get out of the house after working at home all day! I live in BS6.

I've recently got back into reading and I'd really love a group to discuss books with. I'll read most things but prefer shorter books (can't beat the satisfaction of a quick read!).
Sign in to contactLeanne (Bristol)
I love reading and collecting books - This year I want to read 100 books for my good reads challenge and also expand into reading other genres. I currently read mostly Classics, Fantasy/Romantasy, Historical fiction and Sci-fi. I would love to join a book club, so that I can discuss books with other book lovers, and also to be exposed to books that I may not have gravitated to on my own.

Toun (Bristol)
My goal for the New Year is just to read more. I enjoy the social aspect of a book group. It’s not only a good way to keep to some accountability & read more & watch less but it’s great to talk to others about what you’ve just read. I enjoy hearing a range of perspectives & any opportunity for learning or just laughing & sharing. I enjoy cultural generational books, a good novel, books re identity & society. Mental health. Faith. Just a good read. Something that will make me pause and think, cry or LOL or spark a new interest. I live in North Somerset (Pill) just over the suspension bridge but happy to join a Bristol based group as it really isn’t that far from me. I like the idea of home based group rather than meeting in public spaces, as I like the cozy, comfy, personal and chilled aspects. Looking forward to reading with you soon!
Sign in to contactJem (Bristol)
Would love to read more books and a wider variety next year and find having a group really helps me keep on track :) my most read genre is fiction, tend to go for historical, romance, and fantasy but I’m open (and keen) to broaden what I read. Also looking forward to the social aspect of meeting new people! I’m based in Clifton but happy to meet anywhere around Bristol.
