Sinead (St Clears)

Hi, I’m Sinead, I live in Carmarthen. I’ve always loved reading and have always wanted to join a book club. I love getting lost in both fantasy and thriller fiction, with a sprinkling of romance here and there, I also love children’s fiction. Just looking for like minded people, and have a place to chat about books.

Emptydaze (Ammanford)

Feels like a warm hug

Vick (Ammanford)

I have always loved reading. I was a member of a bookclub in England and enjoyed discovering new must Reads and genres through others choices and recommendations. Having relocated to Wales I am looking for a new bookclub to join to share my favourite books. Talk all things books and to make new friends Genres I tend to read are mystery, thrillers and historical fiction or books that are set over multiple time lines.

A murder mystery set in the world of professional Ballroom and Latin. Perfect for fans of Strictly Come Dancing, it has a lot of twists and turns and characters you care about.

The slightly anarchic book club (Ammanford)

Have been an avid reader forever. Trouble is it is solitary therefore would like to join a club in Ammanford/Llanelli area. Please contact me at seniorsl@outlook.com.

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 | Buy this book

I like the main character, Matthew Venn, his character flaws, the evolution of his relationships, something I feel to be one of the strengths of this enduringly popular author

April (Llandeilo)

I am an avid reader and just looking for people with the same interests. Always, fancied joining a book club. I read almost any genre fiction and non fiction. Sci fi, romance, mystery, biographies…historical novels my favourite.

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!

Death and croissants

by Ian Moore | Buy this book

The recluatnce of the hero to get involved in a murder investigation and the interference it causes to his day dreaming about classic films and looking after his hens Sent in a fictional Gollet Valley in France, a brilliant read with fantastic funny characters.

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?
