Sign in to contactPhilr (Whitehaven)
53 year old widower who has always loved reading since an early age. Never joined a book club bit feel it might be the right time as I've never talked about my thoughts on a book to anyone. Historical fiction, classics, Stephen King, John Connolly etc, etc, probably prepared to read anything if it provokes discussion!

Sign in to contactPaul (Grange-over-Sands)
I am an author and also avid reader of fiction of pretty much any genre. I live in Grange-over-Sands, Cumbria. Being honest, I am mostly looking for opportunities to join in with book groups if they want to discuss my debut novel - Joe with an E - which I think has lots of interesting themes to discuss around family, identity and gender-identity.
Sign in to contactLee (Penrith)
Hi, I'm Lee, I live and work in Penrith. I've always loved reading, everything from Jackie Collins to Dostoevsky, (tho if I'm honest probably the former more!) At the moment I'm on with Peter May as his books are set in one of my favourite places - the Hebrides. I used to be in a book club at work years ago and really like sharing thoughts.
