John T (Motherwell)

I am looking at joining in with a book club near me. Currently re-reading for the unknown number of times "Dracula". I am interested in all books and most fiction and non-fiction genres. I love the sense of escapism that reading can give you and where it can lead.

John T recommends:

Dracula

by Bram Stoker | Buy this book

In my opinion, the greatest book ever written, a classic horror, that looks at identity among other subjects.

Mayflies

by Andrew O'Hagan | Buy this book

Heart-breaking and heart warming at the same time. A true book about male friendship and loss.

I’m 41 and really enjoying sitting down with a good book, my favourite discovery of 2025 was Lucy Foley, love the twists and turns of her stories and how the characters connect. I do enjoy reading anything so always looking for recommendations.

The midnight Feast

by Lucy Foley | Buy this book

Something that can’t be told, it has to be read.

Murron (22) (Motherwell)

I like all romance but prefer dark romance, fantasy and branching into science fiction. I would like to meet some people around my age as my friend group is very small. I struggle meeting people as I am a bit anxious in new situations. New book recommendations and similar vibes would be fab 🙂

Hi I am retired and my kids are grown and moved out, I am an avid reader and I would like to join a book group to meet some like minded people. I love fantasy and fiction. I am a huge fan of Terry Pratchett but I am open to suggestion of different genres.

A Man with One of those Faces

by Caimh McDonnell | Buy this book

Caimh McDonnell is an Irish stand up comedian. His books are full of dark humour and drama with great characters and character and plot development. A man with One of Faces is the fist in a six part trilogy : ). If you like drama and humour then I think you will love his stuff.

Gemma (Motherwell)

Truthfully I only used to really read when I was on holiday, but have been enjoying it more, be it books/audio. I sometimes go through phases, where I can’t get enough of a good book, and then other times I don’t read one for ages. This is a habit I want to break as I enjoy the escapism. I enjoy psychological thrillers & murder mystery, recently started to get into fantasy. Up for reading most books apart from horror/paranormal. Happy to make friends and to receive any recommendations.

Gemma recommends:

The family upstairs

by Lisa Jewell | Buy this book

Enjoyed the characters, and was gripped by the twist and turns of the story.

Hollylouise (Motherwell)

I have just fell back in love with reading last year, I used to read all the time when I was younger but fell away from it for a while. Started reading the housemaid by Freida McFadden after seeing all of the hype on it and it totally blew my mind. I absolutely loved it and have read about 40 books since December! My favourite genres are psychological thrillers and smut books.
