ZisKnow (Tring)

I'm a 44 year old male, avid reader though I've been stuck in a rut lately and re-reading old familiar things rather than branching out. Looking to meet up with some like minded readers to both gently socialise, and explore new fiction.

A Love of Novels Bookclub (Baldock)

Dearest Local Book Lovers! I am looking to create a small book club for those who live local to Baldock and are interested in various genres. I moved here just over a year ago and want to read books and joyfully chatter about them over a café or glass of something! I work full time so perhaps an evening (in the warmer days) or during half term holidays kind of work well for me (sorry to sound so selfish!). We could meet initially and talk a little about the books we love and loathe and discuss our next book, meeting date and place. I have just started reading: Family and Borghesia by Natalia Ginzburg, but am also super enthusiastic to re-read my current favourites: A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving, Flowers for Algernon or Maurakami's Men Without Women. I hope that some of you might be interested in joining me, if so please do drop me a little note here! Warm Wishes Arpana

Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes
Flowers for Algernon
by Daniel Keyes | Buy this book
Very interesting as a concept but also creates a good connection with the characters, with a very emotional ending - read it over a year ago and it stays with me all the time

Mimi (Welwyn)

Hi, I'm 19. Recently got out of a major book slump due to burn out from exams. Most of my friends are not into reading hence why I want to meet more people who share my love for reading. I don't limit myself to a particular genre, open to exploring fiction books from different corners of the world. Have to admit, fantasy , thriller and crime do have special place in my heart x

C.E.Colemane (Berkhamsted)

I'm an author, looking to share and discuss my work with interested book groups.

C.E.Colemane recommends:

The Conjurer and the Corpse by C.E.Colemane
The Conjurer and the Corpse
by C.E.Colemane | Buy this book
This book has a gas lamp / victoriana fantasy setting, a cozy murder mystery plot with a magical twist, and complex, sympathetic characters - I hope this is a book that sweeps you off your feet on first reading and provides a rich treasure trove of discovery on second reading. You be the judge!

Emily (Watford)

I’ve always loved fantasy for the way it blends imagination with deep questions about identity, power, and belonging. I’m especially drawn to stories with rich world-building, complex characters, and yes—a touch of romance never hurts.

Sara (Watford)

Hey, I’m a 32 year old book worm who loves reading. Unfortunately, being an adult means I’ve had to prioritise work and personal commitments so reading has taken a back seat. I’m hoping to get back into reading while also meeting new people and hopefully forming strong friendships along the way.

Sea of poppies  by Amitav Ghosh
Sea of poppies
by Amitav Ghosh | Buy this book
The breadth and depth of history, characters mixed with culture. All written in a lucid prose that absorbs the reader in the vast span of the story.
