Hiya. I'm female and in my 60's love reading, keeping fit - gym few times a week and long walks. Work shifts but would like to meet like-minded people to share/discuss books with. I'll read almost anything, so would love to hear from you.

I love reading fiction and nonfiction and would love to meet some new people

Shera (Lewes)

Hi, I’m Shera, a mother. I'm 40 and tend to be quite introverted, so I’ve been looking for a way to meet new people that feels natural. A book club seemed like the right fit, since reading is something I genuinely love. I mostly read fiction, though I’m open to any genre and always appreciate recommendations. Mike Gayle is my favourite author, and his books are usually my comfort reads.

Half a world away

by Mike Gayle | Learn more and buy

I feel a sense of connection while reading it. It is a story that will stay with you long after you read. I have read it twice and the third time is on its way.

Liss (Lewes)

Looking for fellow bookworms to who read all genres & love new recommendations.

Carrey (Bexhill-on-Sea)

I read fantasy, romance and really twisted crime novels and I would love someone to just have a chat with occasionally, and maybe even buddy read. I moved down here from Yorkshire during COVID and I quickly got in the habit of being a homebody! So any new bookish friends I can make would be lovely!

Toby (Crowborough)

23. Mostly into classics (Russian literature is my favourite) but I have very wide reading interests fiction & non fiction (history, philosophy, geopolitics) Keen to find a club / people to discuss books with 😁

Will (Lewes)

The last couple of years I have rediscovered my love of reading. I'm really enjoying myself and would like to share recommendations and discuss books with like minded people.

A great detective story set locally on Romney Marsh / Dungeness. Great descriptions of the marsh.

Hi! I’m Alice, recent Psychology graduate from the University of Chichester. I love psychological thrillers, crime, historical fiction - I’ll give any book a go (not a big fan of romances though)! I get through books like lightning and would love to meet people who love reading just as much as I do 😊

Alice recommends:

1984

by George Orwell | Learn more and buy

Very stereotypical favourite for a Psychology student but I just LOVE this book - dystopian novel way beyond it’s time.

The Miniaturist

by Jessie Burton | Learn more and buy

Historical fantasy with complex characters and an interesting peek into the lives of marginalised people in the 1600s.

Sleeping Beauties

by Stephen King and Owen King | Learn more and buy

Really fascinating dystopia novel that speaks volumes about the way women are viewed in society and what a world without women would entail.

Lorri (Hastings)

I’m in my 50s. I used to love reading all different genres but life got in the way and I struggled to find time to read. I love anything from the classics to Harry Potter, crime/thrillers and some romance. I also like to learn about different things and about natural medicine. I feel like I must have missed out of some great books so that’s why I would like to join a book club.
