Nicola1977 (Fareham)

I moved to Hampshire last year and would love to join a local book club. I need to get out of the house more and meet new people and hopefully make some new friends with similar interests. I want to enjoy a book club with a relaxed discussion over a cuppa or glass of wine without the pressure of intense discussion. I just finished reading The Women which I loved but open to reading pretty much anything.

Lily (Hook)

Head over heels into romance! Occasional crime/thrillers and open to trying new books :) Hoping to find a book club for recommendations and getting me out of my comfort zone!

Susierow (Fareham)

I enjoy a mix of contemporary fiction and romance, and I’m always up for a good story with strong characters. Coco Mellors is a favourite, and I also love classics like To Kill a Mockingbird.

Cleopatra and Frankenstein

by Coco Mellors | Buy this book

Cleopatra and Frankenstein by Coco Mellors offers a compelling look at complex relationships and personal growth. Mellors’ direct writing style brings depth to everyday emotional struggles, capturing the subtleties of love and identity without glossing over the challenges. The result is a thoughtfully crafted narrative that resonates with readers through its honest portrayal of human connection.
