Hot Milk

by Deborah Levy | Buy this book

I love how this book makes you question your own relationships with your family and the beliefs you have created of yourself

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.

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.

LuReads (Potters Bar)

I would like to meet and make friends with like-minded people who also enjoy reading. I enjoy fiction - mainly crime, fantasy and more recently romantasy type books.

David (Radlett)

Love books but mostly have them piled up unread by the side of my bed. Recently retired and want to stay sharp reading and then discussing with others. If interested to join me, let me know!

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.

Vivek (Hitchin)

I like reading history, fiction, and science books. Looking forward to meeting new people, sharing experience and understanding from books we read together.

Vivek recommends:

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.

Debbie (Rickmansworth)

I love travel books, biographies, art, photography, history books etc! I feel like we've got similar interests in reading :)

Debs (Rickmansworth)

Hi I'm Debs, I love reading but sometimes need motivation to finish books or get into a certain genre! I love books on psychology, sci-fi, fantasy, biographies etc. My favourite book of all time is The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. In my free time, I travel a lot, I like to cook, go for walks and hikes etc

Helen (Welwyn Garden City)

Didn't read for 10 years and then got into fantasy romance. ACOTAR was my entry into this world and haven't stopped. I get lots of recommendations off booktok. But would love to join a little book club to chat in person and get new recommendations

Helen recommends:

The book is about the journey of letting go, healing, wellbeing and growth. The poems are contemporary, spiritual and relates to issues in modern society. The book really changes the reader to reflect on self and to be the best version of themsleves.

Oranges are not the only fruit

by Jeanette Winterson | Buy this book

Fascinating structure as it interweaves different tones, styles, times and mini narratives beautifully. Really interesting perspective on evangelical type Christians and how that can impact a queer girl growing up in that environment (it's semi-autobiographical!) <3

Arabella (Radlett)

I have always enjoyed reading, enjoy sharing my opinion and listening to other perspectives. I would like to meet like- minded people living locally and happy to take turns to host.
