Throne of Glass

by Sarah J Maas | Learn more and buy

As the series goes on it's amazing how many minor details in earlier books become so important and by Kingdom of Ash it's an absolute rollercoaster of emotions

Jackie (Folkestone)

I am a 60 year old widow. I work full time and love reading. I want to meet other people with similar interests

Steph (Whitstable)

Hi, I'm looking for a local book club, preferably in or near Whitstable, and am open to any genre. I've slightly drifted into reading what appears in the charity shops / prize winners and would like to be challenged to find/bring something unfamiliar to me or to read something suggested by others. Evenings would be nice but I could manage an afternoon. I'm not into true crime or anything particularly violent or scary.

Petrus (Canterbury)

Interested in English, Dutch, French writing in translation and original language. Originally from the Netherlands and keeping up with its writers, but long enough in the UK to describe myself as bilingual. And having some time in French, let’s add that to the list of interests!

Petrus recommends:

Grand Hotel Europe

by Ilja Pfeijffer | Learn more and buy

Fascinating insight into the decline of the West as it becomes of historic interest to the rest of the world. A great novel about art, Venice, love and crime. It’s all there!
