MystyAngel (Basingstoke)

I'm Mercy, a trainee Occupational Therapist and mum based in Basingstoke. Reading has always been one of my favourite ways to relax, learn, and escape into different worlds. Since moving to the area, I'd love to meet like-minded people and become part of a local community. I'm looking to join a book group because I enjoy hearing different viewpoints, exploring books I wouldn't normally choose, and sharing thoughtful discussions in a friendly setting.

Michael (Basingstoke)

I’m drawn to darker, offbeat literary fiction — the kind of books that are a little strange, psychologically intense, or stylistically ambitious. I love stories that spark discussion and sit with you long after you’ve finished them. I’m not a literary expert by any means, but I’d really like to develop a more critical eye and dig deeper into what makes a book work. Mostly, I’m hoping to find thoughtful, like-minded people who enjoy both good conversation and the social side of reading.

Dennisreader (Fleet)

Me and my friend are looking to join a book club. Early 30s and late 20s.

Donna (Fareham)

Shy, introverted, quiet, in my thirties. Wanting to find someone to discuss books with and make friends. Still finding my reading style, open to recommendations. Currently reading We Need To Talk About Kevin by Lionel Shriver.

Donna recommends:

Ask for Andrea

I enjoyed this story a lot. I've been a reading slump recently and this has helped me get back into it. I liked the different approach of this book and the way it revealed the story.

EmmaJ (Fareham)

MummyF (Hayling Island)

I’m 32 and a mum of two little ones. I’d like to join my first book club. I’m happy to meet every month or so and am open to reading different recommendations.

Rachel (Andover)

I love a good book, or at least I used to! Between looking for new horizons and ways to meet new people with shared interests and a hope of re-discovering a lost love, I'm hoping to find a book club near me to join. Andover or Whitchurch perhaps, but I'd need to know where and when they meet, and as I work full-time, I'm hoping there's an evening based club available somewhere please?

Jess (Andover)

Hi I am 32 and I have recently moved to Andover. I love spicy and fantasy books and would love to join a small local book club in the evenings. I am renting a small house and am happy to host if anyone would like to start one with me?

My Melody (Brockenhurst)

I have recently moved to Hampshire from London, searching for a book club where I could share discussions and interests with like minded people. I am into modern thrillers (with a twist) and non -fictions.

Linda (Fleet)

I am an avid reader but find myself always reading fairly serious international books and would like to expand on this and look at other genres. I would like to meet other people in the area who love reading

Emma (Fareham)

Married and in my 30's. 2 school aged children and 2 adult step sons. Trying to reignite my passion for reading as I find between work and children I spend far to much time on my phone! Love crime/ thriller and psychology genres but really open to anything:)

Wyka (Basingstoke)
