the bond between the two main characters. from being one-sided to everything and more. it's about friendship and loyalty, something that is lacking in this modern world.

The Brothers Karamazov

by Fyodor Dostoyevsky | Learn more and buy

Deep exploration of philosophical and psychological concepts via interesting and entertaining characters. Lengthy but fantastic read, 100% deserving of its reputation

Ayesha (Slough)

My current favourite type of novels are historical fiction with a bit of time slipping thrown in. I am currently re-reading 'The Forgotten Garden' by Kate Morton (who I love) just because January is the perfect month to start day-dreaming about secret walled gardens filled with ancient roses and apple trees. I also like psychological thrillers and clever crime mysteries and love books by unreliable narrators. Looking for a book group in this area because I think it would be fun to chat about a book that someone else has also read!

Six crimson cranes

by Elizabeth Lim | Learn more and buy

The book has great world building and a captivating plot from the very beginning.

Freya (Reading)

Hey! I’m Freya, I’m 19 and I have been wanting to join a book community for quite some time. I love books, especially detective stories or depraved literature, and always wanted to be part of a book club in school but just felt too shy to step out of my comfort zone. I’m looking for a group of people aged 18 and over as I’d like to broaden my social circle and hear from lots of different age groups.

Freya recommends:

The Secret Place

by Tana French | Learn more and buy

I love French’s centralisation of Dublin and her highly visual style that engrosses you in to the world of the Murder Squad series. However, I enjoyed this book the most as it presented the kinship between a group of young girls as almost magical in a way that resonated with me so much, increased by an actual supernatural element she involves that draws them closer. I would recommend to anyone even if they’re not in to detective novels, as I believe it’s accessible to people that are interested in lots of different genres.
