Reading Between the Wines (Newtownabbey)

I’ve recently rediscovered my love of reading and seem to be making up for lost time! I’m currently drawn to thrillers and contemporary fiction, particularly anything that hooks me early and has strong characters, relationships and a good twist along the way. I’d like to join a book group to broaden what I’m reading, discover books I probably wouldn’t pick for myself and enjoy the discussion afterwards. I love hearing different takes on the same story and I’m always up for a good debate, especially when a character has made some spectacularly questionable decisions. I’m really looking forward to discovering some new favourites and having good conversations about the books along the way.

Sadie (Antrim)

Hi, I’m Sadie! I’m a huge book lover and read a bit of everything, although romance is definitely my favourite genre. I love chatting about books, discovering new authors and getting recommendations from other readers. I also run a book club called Chapters & Craic in Antrim, and we’re always looking to welcome new members. We meet regularly for relaxed book discussions, fun activities and a good chat over a coffee. Whether you’re an avid reader or just getting back into reading, we’d love to have you join us!

Angelynn (Lisburn)

I like fiction that is refreshing, adventurous, historical, psychologically interesting, and challenging too. I love books that are well written, and not overly romantic.

BookwormBelle1191 (Ballyclare)

Fantasy, Mystery, Gothic, and the classics are what I tend to read the most, but I am open to other genres if the story sounds interesting and the writing style is engaging. Ideally, meetups can happen every week or two to discuss favourite books, authors and share recommendations.

BookwormBelle1191 recommends:

Warm Bodies

by Isaac Marion | Learn more and buy

Does something different with the zombie genre by narration coming from the zombie's perspective and written with plenty of intrigue and humour. The romance is also very well done and the story has a lot of heart.

Storm Front

by Jim Butcher | Learn more and buy

First book in the Dresden Files, introducing the main characters, how the magic system works and tells a good story with lots of humour and crazy yet awesome moments

Practical Magic

by Alice Hoffman | Learn more and buy

The book that inspired the Halloween classic that is Practical Magic. What I love about the book other than the witchy atmosphere is the relationship between Sally and Gillian who are very different from each other yet as sisters they remain close. The book goes more in depth with their perspectives and with Sally's daughters as they grow and mature

BookwormBelle1191 (Ballyclare)

34F living in Ballyclare for a year and still have yet to find a suitable book club that is flexible for meeting up every week or two. Fantasy, Detective, Classic and Gothic tend to be the genres I read the most, but I am open to other genres if the story sounds interesting.

bookreader7442 (Antrim)

I’m 32F and love anything with romance, contemporary drama, or a dash of fantasy. Big fan of Emily Henry, Elsie Silver, and Kristen Hannah. I’m looking to join a bookclub to meet new people, try books I might not pick up myself, and have some fun chats (Hopefully with some coffee or wine)
