Kathryn (St Austell)

I love reading and discussing books I have read or that other people have read and hearing their perspective. Books can take you to another dimension and place. Stories can be emotive. I would like to meet like minded people.

Perceptive thoughtful funny and curious about everything

Breda (Falmouth)

Moved to Flushing . Looking to make new friends . I read a lot of biographical and medical Science books on wellness . I read any book that is recommended to me though.

Dawn (Redruth)

I used to be an avid reader but have lost interest these days. I'm 61 and spend a huge amount of time walking my collie. I have recently started weight resistance training. Both aren't that social so I think joining a book club will rekindle my love of books and enable me to meet new people to discuss books with/get recommendations.

Dawn recommends:

Women who run with wolves

by Clarissa Pinkola | Buy this book

It's a book of old fables past down from generations about women and their suffering. It tells different stories to help women understand life, strife, love, protection and what it is to be female with a strong sense of smell and intuition; like a wolf.

Lucy (Fowey)

I love reading but don't set aside enough time to read and think joining a book club will make sure I read every day like I used to!

Johnny (Wadebridge)

My name is John. I have lived in Wadebridge for 4 years, I have always been interested in joining a friendly book club in my town. I have read & would be interested in trying more Classics, Adventure, SF, Love Stories, Drama.

Seaswimmer Al (Penzance)

Hi I am Al. I am really active, running and walking the coast path daily and swimming a lot. I also love reading, especially about wild isolated places, surviving against the odds, love true stories based on Second World War, and also stories set in Ireland. I love a debate about a books merits

Alan (Helston)

I enjoy reading - latest reads 'when the cranes fly south', 'Orbital', 'Under the Hornbeams'. I would enjoy discussing the books I have read, and would value book recommendations. I was very active until mid-2024' but unhealthy in the following 12 months hence now a little isolated - chatting with others is always a good thing - even if we disagree!

Alan recommends:

When the Cranes Fly South

by x | Buy this book

It describes a relatively unrecorded time of life. It has a perceptive view of a persons' thoughts and feelings.

Nathaniel (Penzance)

Hello, My name is Nathaniel and I'm looking to join a book group to get out and meet people in a low-anxiety setting. I look forward to meeting whomever I end up meeting.

Nathaniel recommends:

Burmese Days

by George Orwell | Buy this book

Orwell's amazing grasp of prose where it is always evocative but never takes priority over the story he is telling.

Nathaniel (Penzance)

I'm looking to join a book club to get me out of the house and talk to more people. I'm 31 years old and will mostly read anything but with a particular interest in the horror genre.

Better read than dead. (Helston)

I'm looking to start a monthly meet up in Cornwall, Helston- penzance- Hayle-camborne sort of area. The idea is to read things you may not have have otherwise read ! I'm not a snob so pretty much anything goes within reason, each member gets a go picking the book. Could be fantasy, non fiction, the torah, books on gemstones, graphic novels etc. I will kick things off with 'the five' by Hallie rubenhold. It's about the lives of the five alleged victims of jack the ripper. You should be able to find it fairly easily, and if you want to save some money I think world of books sells them used. if you are interested send me an email!

Norman D Landing 😉 (St Austell)

I own more books that I have never read than books I’ve ever read. I need to turn this around!! Still new to the St Austell area so looking to meet new people too.

Imogen (Helston)

Hi, I'm desperate to join a book club near me, or if there wasn't one , start one! . Terry Pratchett is my favourite author of all time, as well as the seven sisters series. But really I just love reading so I'm always looking for new experiences. I'm currently reading 'unwell women' a non fiction book, and the book I read before that was the 'The nun' by Denis diderot.

aliceratesthings (Helston)

I've always loved reading and although I go through phases, I read a lot. I read mostly fiction, and mostly literary fiction, but love trying books I wouldn't otherwise have read- which is why book clubs are so great!
