Rhian (Manchester)

Hi! I'm a 20 something book reader in Chorlton, Manchester. A curious bookworm, snack enthusiast, and general lover of a cosy evening. I work in publishing and read cross-genre and am always looking to expand my reading horizons. If you’re into chats about Taylor Swift, books, and the occasional espresso martini, we’ll get along brilliantly.

KatieP (Manchester)

I read tones of fantasy romance books and would love a group to talk about them with in Manchester city centre

Dee (Manchester)

I like psychological thrillers, mystery, crime and even a little romance. I love reading and looking to join a book club, can be online or in person, to discuss latest reads and share recommendations.

I love reading fantasy/romance/historical. If I'm not reading, I'm gaming or playing dungeons and dragons :) My partner isnt a reader so in need of people to talk about the books I read with!

KirstieMcCrum (Manchester)

Jennifer Egan is top of the heap for me, but I also love crime and thrillers.

Mohsin (Ashton-under-Lyne)

Hey! I'm super into reading all kinds of books—total book nerd here. I’m into novels, especially thrillers, mysteries, and sometimes even romance (guess I’m a bit of a romantic, lol). I also love traveling; I recently went to Istanbul, Turkey, which is basically cat city! Speaking of which, I'm a big cat lover. I’m also into nature walks, visiting historic sites, and checking out museums. And I’m always down for a chill cafe hangout!

Mohsin recommends:

Becky (Manchester)

I’ve recently moved the Greater Manchester Area and started reading again! I love thriller novels and romance/drama. I am also open to other genres, I find I can really get into it as long as it’s a good book. I love to chat about a good book but currently I am not apart of any book club, but I would like to start one! I would be willing to organize a book club in the Manchester area if anyone is interested. Please feel free to get into contact with me!

Becky recommends:

The Only One Left

by Riley Sager | Buy this book

This book left me with my jaw on the floor. It is my most recent thriller read, and I could not put it down. I’ve read another book by this author and I have to say the twists and turns in his story leave me speechless.

Mya (Ashton-under-Lyne)

I enjoy reading especially romance and crime books!

Mya recommends:

the silent patient

by Alex Michaelides | Buy this book

Loved the overall story line and the plot twist. The two story lines throughout from the different characters where delivered really well.

belleanna (Ashton-under-Lyne)

I am a woman in her mid-twenties and an avid reader of all genres, but I rarely find someone to talk about books with! I would love to have a group of people to chat with regularly and also meet in person occasionally too if possible. It would be a lovely way to make new friends and share my love of books and literature! Please contact if this seems like something you’d be interested in!

The Color Purple

by Alice Walker | Buy this book

This is a powerful and moving book about loss, oppression and the power of sisterhood and the strength of love even in the hardest times.

The Lies of Locke Lamora

by Scott Lynch | Buy this book

This was a recent high-fantasy read. The urban fantasy world building is incredible and the prose is beautiful whilst still being action packed. The characters are unforgettable and the bonds between them are the core of everything that happens. Would highly recommend.

y4wwn (Manchester)

I’m a big fantasy lover but willing to read anything

Trey (Ashton-under-Lyne)

Nerdy 24 year old with a passion for mystery and non fiction books

Boxaboo02 (Manchester)

I absolutely love escaping into a good fantasy book, especially with romance in, I also enjoy a good romance book or a thriller, although I do mainly stick to romantasies. I’m looking to join a book club because I have nobody to talk about books with, nobody I know reads the kind of books I love, so it would be great to connect with people who do. I have also struggled my whole life at making friends, so just connecting with people in general would be an amazing experience.

Tales & Tea cups (Manchester)

Laid back, friendly, relaxing

crime reader62 (Manchester)

i got into reading classic crime sherlock holmes agatha christie i love to read the classics as well

Sakred88 (Manchester)

35F here, and I guess I'm looking to join a book club/group to nerd out with like-minded people. I do tend to lean more towards the fantasy genre and the sub-genres that fall under it (cosy fantasy, progression fantasy, litRPG etc) but I'm open to anything really and always happy to discover a new gem that I may have otherwise overlooked.

alexbrownreads (Manchester)
