Emma (Ambleside)

I love most genres: contemporary, historical, magical realism, crime, romance, fantasy,... and would love to find other local people to meet up, chat books, life and to simply have a nice time together :)

Emma recommends:

Hex by Jenni Fagan
Hex
by Jenni Fagan | Buy this book
I loved the blend between historical and magical realism genres in this book and just think it is the most perfect and most touching short read I have read in the past year. It is a story about women's suffering in the witch hunt era, women supporting each other and love and friendship whilst being most brutally touching and thought-provoking.

Sam (Hawkshead)

I love reading and normally have several books on the go. I’d say that I mainly read literary fiction, and I love it when someone recommends a book that then becomes a favourite.
