BookReader64 (Fareham)

Hi I’m a 44yo wife and mum who loves reading books, sometimes slowly. I mostly enjoy psychological thrillers. Would love to meet local friends who enjoy quiet cafes and discussing good books (where my daughter can attend also; quiet, calm child who also loves to read).

Really hard to explain without spoiling but you will love the unexpected and want what you don’t expect to want happen.

A lovely book. Hard to put down and draws you in to the characters.

Katherine of Aragon

by Alison Weir | Buy this book

A well researched book which demonstrates the authors passion for the particular historical period and persons. I thought the author wrote Katherine of Aragon's story with such attentiveness, sensitivity and respect.

A short stay in hell

by Steven L. Peck | Buy this book

The Silent Patient

by Alex Michaelides | Buy this book

An intriguing, fascinating book that kept you in suspense until the very end. A book that can help you regain your love for reading, love for complex and complicated characters, for puzzles that unravel slowly before your eyes, but dynamically enough for the reader not to lose attention. I discovered the author since this book and I want to say that psychological thrillers are really something sensational!

Eva (Southampton)

Hi, I’m Eva from Southampton. I enjoy to read crime, thriller and murder twists the most.

Dennis book reader recommends:

Harrys Game

by Gerald Seymour | Buy this book

Arguably the most realistic thriller ever written, page turner with real characters with human flaws and failings. The opposite of the Bourne trilogy or James Bond

Ed Johnson (Aldershot)

I am wanting to promote my own book and get feedback from real people who read it.

Literature Nut (Whitchurch (Hampshire))

I read every chance i get. I love post modern and contemporary literature. I also read victorian novels, historical fiction and psychology books, old and new. My favourite books are written by women about women. Popular fiction is not my thing at all. I am looking to find a group who is passionate about good literature, who loves talking about what makes a good writer and who loves to connect with and find meaning in fiction.
