JuneAntoinette Necchi (Christchurch)
I have written two books Kissing Donna Better an ebook describing my daughter’s incurable brain tumour journey and how we found joy along the way making precious memories. My second due for publication thus weekend, The Little Stranger at Your Door tells of my wartime evacuee experiences and of the challenges of various jobs to keep a roof over my head.

DesktopDan (Bournemouth)
After a lifetime of reading, teaching and training, I appreciate the value of being well read. A successful man once told me as a youngster "You are the product of the people you meet and the books you read" A saying I have stuck to ever since. Helping an old friend publish his books, I've encountered the world of indie authors in addition to the many well know mainstream authors.

Tonya (Bournemouth)
I am a recent graduate and I am currently looking to expand my circle and I thought that it would be easy to connect with people through a book club. At the moment I read a lot about spirituality, self-development and health :)

Hello I’m a mother, grandmother and wife who has for many years read books to further my knowledge in relation to my work. Now I am looking to reconnect with the joy of reading just for pleasure and share my thoughts with like minded people of all ages.

Jemma (Sherborne)
Hello! I'm moving from SE London to the Somerset/Dorser border (near Sherborne) and would love to join or start a book club and meet some local friendly faces. My taste in books is quite eclectic, but I'm more drawn to literary fiction. Books by Iris Murdoch, John Steinbeck, Margaret Atwood and Elena Ferrante are up there in my top twenty! I also love a bit of science fiction and fantasy but I'm keen to widen my reading list and have friendly discussions about books of all kinds, preferably over a glass of wine.
