Anthony (Newent)

I’m 53 and best described as a distracted reader! I particularly enjoy the literature and new journalism of the 1960s but I’m easily can turn my attention to non-fiction historical books and biography- especially cycling. I usually have a few books on the go! Interested in joining a book club in order to be better disciplined in my reading and sharing thoughts!

Anthony recommends:

Inherent Vice
by Thomas Pynchon | Learn more and buy
Fun and a rich mix of characters - observant and at times poignant and sad.

Anthony (Newent)

Hi my name is Anthony. I’m probably best described as a distracted reader! I enjoy all sorts of genre but I am drawn to that of the 1960s counter culture so authors like Hunter S Thompson, Thomas Pynchon and Kurt Vonnegut. I also enjoy reading non fiction history and biographies especially cycling! Would welcome the added impetus of a book club to help my reading to return to its former level - I will one day finish Joyce’s Ulysses!!

Anthony recommends:

Inherent Vice
by Thomas Pynchon | Learn more and buy
Well I finished it! But the usual mix of rich characters and narrative thread - darkly funny and poignantly observant.

A Downs (Cirencester)

I like reading fiction, mostly crime, mystery, thriller and romance, I would say. I live in the Fairford, Lechlade, Bibury area, looking for a social group, to make friends, discuss reading and writing. I am very happy to join an existing group, but I get off work between 6pm-7pm so ideally we would meet at about 7:15-7:30pm. Looking to meet once a month probably.

Duncan (Cheltenham)

I’ve recently moved into the Charlton Kings area and have found myself with more time on my hands. I love to travel and read (often simultaneously) and mainly read fiction so would welcome the opportunity to socialise and to be challenged and moved out of my comfort zone by reading other people’s literary choices.
