Ash (Havant)

Just started reading again after a long break. Looking for like minded people to read with. I like psychological thrillers, horror and fantasy.

Aaron (Basingstoke)

Huge bibliophile, mainly reading a lot of fantasy and sci-fi at the moment, but my collection and taste spans from classics, magical realism, dystopian and everything in between. Just wanting to get a feel for whether there's any book groups near/in Basingstoke and what genres seem to be popular.

FranklyStein (Basingstoke)

A lifelong book lover with a passion for historical fiction, horror, sci-fi, and fantasy. I enjoy immersive storytelling, rich world-building, and thought-provoking narratives that stay with you long after the last page. Some of my all-time favorites include The Road by Cormac McCarthy, Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett, and Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin. Always looking to connect with like-minded readers who love deep discussions, new book recommendations, and the occasional debate over the best (or worst) adaptations. Let’s talk books!

FranklyStein recommends:

Pillars of the Earth is an epic blend of history, drama, and ambition, featuring rich medieval detail, complex characters, and a gripping story of power, betrayal, and the relentless pursuit of a grand vision.

Mark in Hook (Hook)

I like fiction and non- fiction, poetry, literature and drama. I tutor English literature and language but try to push myself to read new authors and genres as well as my favourites. These include Hilary Mantel, John Irving and Steinbeck, Benjamin Myers, WG Sebald, Sickens, Auden, Armitage...in fact any writer that writes well. Currently on the reading pile is Francis Spurford, Michael Igniateff and right now, bought today, John Lewis Stempel's , ' England, a natural history. ' I'd like to share my enthusiasm for places visited and explore new places with readers of whatever interest and persuasion. I work in local Government building social housing, follow politics and current affairs and have a sizeable library in my garden office, acquired when the pandemic changed our working life routines for ever.

The intensity of the gentleness ofvthe writing, generous in its sharing of an age of watching, thinking and writing, beautifully phrased, accessible and often leaving a lasting feeling of knowing the writer
