Jay (Glasgow)

Hi! I'm currently looking for a book club that will keep me motivated to continue reading and get to meet new fellow book lovers. I am up for reading anything and everything. I have been trying to work my way through some classics, and would love some more modern recommendations :)

Jay recommends:

East of Eden

by John Steinbeck | Buy this book

How fully realised each character in the book is. It is long and can drag at some points, but I still wish it was longer so I could have got to get know the characters even more.

t (Glasgow)

Hi, I’m Tala, and I’m interested in starting or joining a book club that centres BIPOC voices, with a particular focus on Palestinian and broader Global South narratives. I’m open to both fiction and non fiction, especially books that explore power, identity, colonialism, memory, and resistance. I’m drawn to works like Orientalism, as well as Palestinian literature such as Men in the Sun, which combine political depth with strong storytelling. I’d love a space that encourages thoughtful discussion, critical reading, and learning from lived experiences across cultures

Hi! I love to read fantasy, fantasy romance, sci-fi, and basically anything written by Dolly Alderton. Looking to maybe join a book club or make some bookish friends to talk about our favourite reads.

Steady (Glasgow)

Hi, my name is Steve. I'm 58. I've been writing for fun for years. I've now completed several books. Having been made redundant a year ago, I'm keen to find book clubs that would be interested in reviewing them/giving me constructive feedback so that I can market them effectively/know how to refine them before approaching an agent. I have a darkly comic thriller, a YA speculative fiction thriller, and a number of others. They are on Amazon/Kindle, gathering virtual dust. Hence, I'm keen to get feedback another way so that I can work out what to do with them!

Steady recommends:

Morris

by Stephen Stead! | Buy this book

It blends humour with the realities of real life in a thriller that combines survival with unlikely friendships. Think About a Boy meets Luther!

Net AI

by Stephen Stead! | Buy this book

The book explores the potential menace of AI if left unchecked and the dangers of overly sharing information online. Its speculative fiction storyline knits in real-world events, which see two teenagers pitted against the US and Chinese Secret Services.

RyanS (Glasgow)

I am an avid reader and can speed read through 3 or 4 books a week. There isn't really a genre I don't work my way through but I am predominantly a horror and crime fan. I love book recommendations but don't really have any immediate friends or family who enjoy to flip through pages like I do. I would love to meet like-minded people who share these interests.

RyanS recommends:

Still Missing

by Chevy Stevens | Buy this book

This book grabs you by the heart and doesn't let go until the last page. It is thrilling, emotional, slightly disturbing, and superbly suspenseful.

Helen (Glasgow)

Gansey (Glasgow)

I love a cheeky book reading session. I'm a guy who will read something just because the cover caught my interest. I love to just pick up a book without knowing anything about it. I love YA, Science fiction, Horror books, I can read romance but not overly keen. I'm keen to make friends as being AUDHD I actively struggle with this.

Gansey recommends:

The Raven Cycle Series

by Maggie Stiefvater | Buy this book

"The Raven Cycle weaves magic, mystery, and heartache into a tale of friendship, fate, and a search for a long-dead king. If you crave lyrical prose, unforgettable characters, and a story where the ordinary meets the extraordinary, this series will captivate your soul."

Robbie (Glasgow)

Hi my name is Robbie, and I am interested in getting back into reading and would appreciate being in a group club because it would hold me accountable to actually complete the book. I enjoy reading self development books and neurology but open to reading just about anything! Right now I’m working in a solicitors office.

Austin (Glasgow)

ever since i was a young boy i have been reading books and now into my late teens i have kept on the hunger to read. lately i have been reading Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy, i think that the overall message of the book is to societal expectations and norms can lead to personal destruction and unhappiness. I would like to meet up at least once per month. I am into thriller/suspense, westerns, historical, young adult, and fantasy.

Natjeans (Glasgow)

Looking to join a book club. Been an avid reader since I was a kid. Many photos of me sitting alone with books in school. As an adult I am less of an introvert and want to join a club to discuss books and make friends!

Erin (Glasgow)

Hi I’m Erin! I was such a bookworm growing up but life/work got in the way. I’ve just recently got back into reading and want to expand my literary horizons. I’ll read everything and anything but I particularly enjoy classics, fantasy and crime. I’m 28 and have a ginger cat called Gus. I tend to be a bit shy but trying to get myself out there!

Erin recommends:

Flowers for Algernon

by Daniel Keys | Buy this book

This one really got me! A really interesting concept about a man with a mental disability undergoing a surgery to improve his intelligence. It was one of the first books that stayed with me for a long time afterwards and made me question my own character.
