Hey, I'm Bibi. I'm a major movie buff trying to actually read books instead of just watching them. Looking to make some new friends and get back into reading. Definitely skip the romance and fantasy but I'm down for a solid thriller, drama, or realistic fiction!

Raj (St Albans)

Like reading fiction , biographies

Emma (Hemel Hempstead)

I am 29 years old and (fairly) new to the Hemel Hempstead area. I am a little introverted, but like to take people as I find them and open to making new friends. I am really getting into reading and feeling in awe of some of the classics I have tried so far. I would be really happy to meet regularly, perhaps once a month, to discuss new ideas and share book recommendations.

Sassi (Bishop's Stortford)

Hi I’m Sassi 33F. I’d love to join an in person book group to discuss books and make new friends. I enjoy all kinds of books but lately I’ve been reading thrillers and fantasy. I also read quite a lot of non-fiction including motivational stuff and books about food/ the food system.

Lisa (Stevenage)

I enjoy reading anytime I can. Favourite genre is crime, thriller and mystery. Interesting in trying a new genre and make new bookish friends.

Bushey Book Club (Radlett)

Mixed group aged 50+ based in and around Bushey, Herts. This group would be for those who enjoy reading novels. As examples we have read: The Humans - Matt Haig, The Girl with the Louding Voice - Abi Dare, Anxious People - Fredrik Backman, The Seventh Son - Sebastian Faulks, Lessons in Chemistry - Bonnie Garnus, and Eleven - Mark Wawtson. We are not that keen on fantasy or sci-fi but the odd book in that genre would be OK. Once per month meeting in each others' home on a rota. Wednesday evenings with snacks and drinks provided by the host.

NatDK (Hemel Hempstead)

F27. I enjoy most genres from fantasy to romance and classics

Bookaty (Hemel Hempstead)

Karolinao (Hemel Hempstead)

Lesley (Hertford)

I’m a woman pensioner who has recently moved to Hertford. I enjoy reading very much and am happy to read a wide variety of books. I belonged to a book club in London but would now like to join a club in Hertford. I believe that you meet in the Old Barge on Folly island.

carmenjc (Watford)

Cheta (St Albans)

I have been a lover of books but kind of lost touch after university. Getting back to reading and would like to join an active book club to learn and socialize.

Belle (Rickmansworth)

I like exploring genres, love a fantasy series. I prefer the romance to be subtle (eye contact, how scandalous). Books this year have been fantasy, crime, and science fiction. Mainly looking for recommendations, I am terrible at picking new reads.

Belle recommends:

Jurassic Park

by Michael Crichton | Learn more and buy

Better than the film, we get to know the characters and the goings on of the park in more depth. There is more to the story than 'get the power on and get off the island'.

The Stormlight Archive

by Brandon Sanderson | Learn more and buy

A fantastical world with knights, kings and a science-based magic. Follows a handful of characters through war and discoveries. I cried, laughed, rolled my eyes and sighed at how long several of the books are... the first one takes 500 pages to get into it, but I can say with confidence it is very much worth it.

Gone Girl

by Gillian Flynn | Learn more and buy

First time reading a crime book, incredibly compelling. I have not watched the film but have been told the book was better so do what that information what you will. Loved the twists and turns but I will admit the ending was a little disappointing.

Concy (Watford)

Hello! I have always loved reading particularly fantasy books. I remember when a book was keeping me awake as I could not stop reading it or how at times the words were creating images in my Mind almost like I was actually watching a movie. Life, work and being an adult has taken a priority in the last couple of years and I would like to enjoy again reading while also meeting people in my area since I have recently moved in Watford.

Ange (Hatfield)

I recently been reading through the ACOTAR series and loving them! Would love to find a book club to join locally :) ideally one that meets on a Sunday or Monday

AshRose (Rickmansworth)

Hi, I’m Ashley, F, I love reading in my free time and I’m looking for readers like me to talk books or be part of a book club. I do a bit of writing as well (on online forums etc), but I am not published yet. I’m happy to meet virtually or in person anywhere around Hertfordshire on a regular basis. We can make it a fun day! The genres I love are; fantasy, dark romance, thriller, crime, horror, sci-fi, LGBT, classic.
