The Priory of the Orange Tree

by Samantha Shannon | Buy this book

I love this book so much, it's like if all the fantasies I grew up reading suddenly had female leads and diverse representation and dragons. The world building is phenomenal, I felt like I lived inside this book and I honestly never wanted to leave.

Helena Dennison (Gillingham (Dorset))

I've been part of a book club in NW London for the past 4 years and have thoroughly enjoyed the books we chose as well as the lively discussion and the places we met. I love contemporary literature as well as the classics.

The Seven Moons of Maali Almaeda

An extraordinary idea that provides the context for a gripping novel set in Sri Lanka.

Cinni Reads (Blandford Forum)

I’m looking to join a local or virtual group who share my love of reading. I am open to all sorts of books but tend to read a mix of non-fiction, historical novels and literary fiction. Would love to connect with others who share my interest and find some new books to enjoy!
