Lena (Buxton)

I’ve always loved reading, and last year I finally got back into it in full swing. I found myself reading a ton of Agatha Christie and other whodunit novels—I love a good mystery and trying to piece together the clues before the big reveal! Beyond mysteries, I’m interested in all things literature and enjoy exploring new authors and titles as well as going back to the classics. One of the more recent novels I read was Leaving Time by Jodi Picoult, which I really enjoyed. I’m also new to the Buxton area and would love to join a book group as a way to meet new people, make some friends, and connect with others who genuinely love to read. I’m looking forward to discovering books I might not have picked up on my own, sharing thoughts and recommendations, and, of course, having some fun conversations along the way.

One Hundred Years of Solitude
by Gabriel García Márquez | Learn more and buy
Its an amazing tale of many generations of the same family leaving through pain, love, loss. Its a tale of humanity in a miniature version.

Amanda (New Mills)

Hi I’m a 36 year old mum who has always wanted to join a book group and now is the perfect time. I would love to have someone to chat about books with and be encouraged to read more books I’m not used to reading. I don’t have a preference for genre but I’m currently reading a little life by Hanya Yanagihara 😬 Thanks Amanda

ChrisH72 (Chesterfield)

Hi. looking for an informal group where I can talk about my love of reading, share recommendations, make friends and generally meet like minded folk. Fave genres include: Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Horror and some autobiographies and biographies but open to others as well.

ChrisH72 recommends:

Rendezvouz With Rama by Arthur C Clarke
Rendezvouz With Rama
by Arthur C Clarke | Learn more and buy
When I first read this as a teenager the sense of wonder and something truly alien blew my mind. Sure, characterisation is poor but the scope, scale and mystery of the story is epic.

Katiebetty28 (New Mills)

I’m new to the area and looking to find a group of like minded people who enjoy a good book, maybe a glass of wine and a chat. Quite an eclectic taste, although some authors I tend to go back to are Barbara Kingsolver, Jessie Burton, Kate Atkinson, Jonathan Franzen, Lionel Shriver to name a few. I don’t mind an autobiography either. I tend to rush through books and then can’t remember anything about the plot afterwards so I feel like this would slow me down and make me think a bit more.
