I love reading and escaping into a good book. I enjoy all genres of fiction but my go-to is crime fiction. It would be nice to connect with other people who share my interest.

Helena H (St Clears)

I’ve just moved to Whitland and I’m looking for a local book club. I joined one before and loved the diversity of books I read, I naturally veer towards crime, thriller etc but I’ve read the complete Game of Thrones series and all things Lucinda Riley! I would like to get to know the lovely local people too so this is a great way to achieve both!

Helena H recommends:

Autumn (Ammanford)

Definitely an avid reader. I will try most anything if it’s well written. I adore the classics with Austen and Eliot leading. I enjoy historical fiction. Most recent modern fiction I enjoyed was Alias Grace, Atwood. I’m less keen on Crime or Romance. Lively conversation about books would be fab. Let’s find a local place to form a group and meet up?

Morgan (Ammanford)

I probably spend too much time reading. Every now and again, I shift genre, currently I enjoy British crime novels and sometimes something a little more fluffy for bedtime reading. It would be great to help organise a venue local to the Ammanford area and make some new friends as well

Morgan recommends:

The Raging Storm by Ann Cleeves

The slightly anarchic book club (Ammanford)

To meet up with like minded people who love to read and share their reading experiences by discussing our favourite authors in a friendly non judgemental atmosphere. No reading from a book list but hoping that it may persuade you to try a new genre you'd previously not considered. First meeting 9 December 24 at Ammannford library
