Elderly, retired former English teacher. Outlived all former book-loving pals, still read but miss the company of like-minded others to exchange news / views on what we have read/are reading.

The Reaper by Peter Lovesey
The Reaper
by Peter Lovesey | Buy this book
A consumate storyteller and spinner of yarns, Lovesey has a wry sense of humour, which occasionally allows a passing chuckle for the unsuspecting reader when in the midst of shudders & shocks on the pages of this murder mystery! The hallmark of a Lovesey trait which can catch the reader to stop in their tracks, backpedal a paragraph, & confirm, yes, that mischeivous use of irony added a touch, enhanced the scene-brought it close to what can occur in real life. It is the kind of short, well plotted book to reach for after a lengthy, intense, serious & cerebral read -a little light relief before reaching for your next C.J.Sansom or Follet.

Jan (Paignton)

Love, love, love books and the worlds they open up for you. I enjoy everything from Non-fiction to fantasy but do like to indulge in a light hearted murder series from time to time. I am new to Torbay and would love to meet and engage with like minded peeps. I am just in my 50s - but also not a day over 21 :-)

Flavia (Barnstaple)

Love reading - not keen on crime/thrillers/sci-fi so have never read anything from these genres. Normally stick to biographies and autobiographies or easy reading romance novels.

Taylorspooks96 (Plymouth)

Hi! I’m a 28 year old book lover! I’m autistic, and a single mum to a toddler. I read in any spare time I have, and listen to audiobooks daily when doing chores or cooking. I am isolated and have no friends so I am looking to make some book friends and potentially find a book club for September 2025 when my son goes to nursery! I’m also looking for an online book club that’s local people to me attend as well as I want to make real connections with those in my local area so we could eventually do little coffee/book friend dates, or make a point of doing a little get together with pizza or Chinese and a book at home of an evening! Message me if you think you’d like to be friends! I read pretty much anything, although not very huge on classics overall. I really enjoy fantasy, romance, spice, comedy, lighthearted, cosy reads, horror, witchy and spooky, and pretty much anything else. My only aversion really is classics as I find them a little boring! Some of my favourites are the night circus by erin morgenstern, scythe by neal shusterman, the ghost tree by Christina Henry, and I also loved more recently before the coffee gets cold. I am also on Goodreads if you want to message and ask for my username!:) my current read is phantasma by kaylie smith. ❤️

Phantasma

It is a dark fantasy, with all manner of ghosts and hauntings, dangerous and deadly games to play to seek a prize, romance, and a little spice too.

John (Teignmouth)

I used to be anvid reader, but in more recent years have hardly read at all. It would be great to join a local group (I used to belong to a book group), and get into a practice of reading again (vs. watching TV). It's always good to hear other people's persepctives.

EllaDavina51 (Axminster)

A little while ago I started listening to audio books on my drive down to Cornwall and it sparked my interest in romantasy novels. I love reading all sorts of fantasy books especially ones with a little spice. I am 21 and would really like to meet new people and make some friends who I can chat with about my next read.
