Verity

by Colleen Hoover | Buy this book

You might not like Collen Hoover's books in the romantic genre but this thriller is a must-read.

Vincent (High Wycombe)

I'm not. Just signing up to contact someone opening a charity bookshop looking for volunteers

Emily (Amersham)

I'm interested in meeting more people in the Amersham area and I'm hoping that a shared love of books is a good place to start. I'm mid 40's and enjoy contemporary fiction

Dotun (Milton Keynes)

Hi, I’m Dotun, I’m really passionate about reading and exploring new ideas through books. Whether it’s fiction, non-fiction, or something in between, I enjoy diving into different worlds, perspectives, and stories. I’m looking to join a book group because I love the idea of sharing those reading experiences with others, discussing themes, characters, and the deeper meanings behind what we read. I also appreciate how book groups can introduce me to genres or authors I might not normally pick up. I’m excited about the idea of learning from others’ perspectives and bringing my own thoughts to the table. Plus, it’s always great to connect with fellow book lovers and have those lively discussions that make a good story even more impactful.

Dotun recommends:

The Left Hand of Darkness

by Ursula K. Le Guin | Buy this book

The novel delves into deep philosophical questions about human nature, otherness, and understanding. It explores themes of loyalty, betrayal, duality, and what it means to belong. It also highlights the challenges of intercultural communication and the alienation that can arise from differences, both physical and ideological.

Rahaj (High Wycombe)

My name is Rahaj, I'm 18 years old and I wish to make friends in the book club as well as share my interests with them in various topics!

Rahaj recommends:

Spook's Apprentice

by Joseph Delaney | Buy this book

It's a fantasy book about a young boy who's the seventh son of a seventh son. It leads us to a journey of his to become a Spook. A decent book I would recommend to fantasy lovers

judy (Milton Keynes)

I love reading books that introduce me to new ideas for how I can think differently or how the world could be different.

judy recommends:

Disoriental

by Negar Djavadi | Buy this book

This book is so generous in the way Negar talks to us and tells us about so many complexities of community, culture, history and politics in Iran, the terror that is created by borders, and the life long impact of migration. At the same time, as someone with a different life experience, there is so much to relate to. I loved that people and Kimia's relationship to the world move around and definitely exist beyond the binary. A gem of a book.

Mark (Aylesbury)

Interesting in finding a book club whose members enjoy similar types of books to me, both to spur myself to read more but also to meet nice people

Susan high Wycombe recommends:

Ella (Aylesbury)

AAAmersham (Amersham)

Looking for a local book club close to Amersham to rekindle my love of reading and getting more out of each book by chatting and sharing ideas. Open to Amersham, the Chalfonts, Beaconsfield, Chesham.

fizzymangojuice (High Wycombe)

I like literary fiction, and am getting into non-fiction at the moment. I'm interested in reading more non-fiction and translated literature, as well as trying out a more diverse range of themes. However, my main motive is to be able to discuss and be on the same page (no pun intended) as I don't know many people who read the same books I do. I'm a slow reader so I'll need more time to get through the allocated book.

fizzymangojuice recommends:

Parable of the Sower

by Octavia E. Butler | Buy this book

Masterful world building and commentary, rich characters and makes you feel and think.

Reader245 (Aylesbury)

I’m 24 years old, not been living in Buckinghamshire for very long so I haven’t really made any friends. I’ve recently just started getting into reading books and thought why not join a book club to have someone to talk to about what I’ve read and to be able to socialise.

Reader245 recommends:
