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 🙂

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.

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.

CaraMac17 (Motherwell)

I love reading, but find it easy to fall into a slump. I love fantasy, crime, romance and a little bit of spice!

Lotte (Airdrie)

I like all genres other than chic lit. Looking to join a group or meet like minded people who enjoy reading and discussion.

Lotte recommends:

A Prayer For Owen Meany

by John Irving | Buy this book

Various people themes throughout the novel.

Katya (Biggar)

Hi, I am women in my early thirties. I enjoy readings books and not really sticking to one genre. I think book club is a great way to learn about new authors and its interesting to see how different people interpret the same book. I recently moved to Scottish borders close to West Linton and would like to join local book club.

easy deos it (Airdrie)

hi to encourage myself to read more to escape into something that takes away other things in my head. racing mind sort of speak yo learn from others
