Readalot Terry (Barnard Castle)

I have read all my life and am now retired, and read even more! Mostly historical novels and factual history with the odd diversion to a different genre.

CROSS STICH

by DIANA GABALDON | Buy this book

The romance, and the time shift between Culloden and present.

Michelle (Chester-le-Street)

I would love to join a book club. Meet new people and find new books. Open to reading anything.

MamaBee (Durham)

I’m a new mammy to a beautiful little girl. I’m 23 (almost 24) and love new adult fantasy romance books - but I’m open to anything! During and after pregnancy I have lost who I am as a person, and I’m hoping that by finding a community of people with similar passions to me I can start to find myself again.

MamaBee recommends:

A Touch of Darkness

by Scarlett St Clair | Buy this book

It’s a retelling of Hades and Persephone. It has a modern touch and is filled with self discovery, romance, magic and just enough of Persephone being a badass.

Jos (Darlington)

I enjoy reading most genres. Enjoy library visits. Looking to meet new people who enjoy reading also.

Jos recommends:

Rebecca

by Daphne Du Maurier | Buy this book

Has the intrigue and mystery, colourful characters and through the eyes of a young woman whose name is never mentioned who is expected to live up to the previous mistress. It’s full of sunshine and love but very dark also

The Diary of a Young Girl

by Anne Frank | Buy this book

The way Anne is expressing her thoughts and that at the very young age of 13 years old is beyond my imagination.

Olivia (Durham)

I am a 21 year old book reader who enjoys nothing more than to sit at home with a good book. I am into fantasy, romance (which can be dark at times), thriller, horror, mystery etc. I don't settle for one genre and I will try all books. I don't have many people that around me that read <3

Olivia recommends:

They Both Die At The End

by Adam Silvera | Buy this book

Two people that are brought together by death. Enjoying each others company before they leave the world they live in. Heart-breaking, but such an amazing read.

Sarah (Seaham)

I love reading most genres, but particularly Victorian fiction, early modern and post-modern. I am just about to have a baby so wanting a group to help me keep reading whilst on maternity leave, if possible!

Gillian (Darlington)

I'm 55, divorced, work as a bus driver, love Reading and would like to meet new people

Courtney (Bishop Auckland)

27 year old mamma to a 4 year old. I fell in love with reading at the beginning of 2023, so I still class myself as a newbie. I helped create a book club in Durham where I have made some wonderful friends!
