Lilie B. (Leicester)
Hi I’m Lilie, I’m a young military spouse. So when my husband is on his shift or deployed, I love filling my time devouring psychological thrillers, romance..sometimes dabble into a bit of Fantasy and horror. I’d love to connect to fellow readers with similar interests instead of scrolling on Booktok all the time 😂.

Crimre (Loughborough)
Hi everyone, I am 37 and love reading (and writing). I am very much into Japanese crime literature, manga, fantasy (like Terry Pratchett) but I am willing to try all kinds of books. I work from home which can be quite a lonely task. So I am looking for a group of like minded people near me to join, read and talk books with. Thanks :)

John (Loughborough)
My reading interests span politics, military history, and the inner workings of public institutions, with each area equally important. I enjoy books written by people with direct involvement — politicians, soldiers, journalists, civil servants, and insiders — especially when they offer honest reflections, behind‑the‑scenes insight, or analysis of decision‑making under real-world constraints. I’m also drawn to investigative accounts of political events, organisational failures, and leadership challenges, alongside military memoirs that focus on lived experience rather than abstract strategy. Overall, I prefer clear, factual, grounded non‑fiction that helps me understand how systems and people operate in demanding environments.

BooksByKieran (Leicester)
I'm a local Leicester author! I am 26 and have published a novel last year with a second one coming out in 2026! I love connecting with readers and regularly attend book clubs and discussions to talk about my book and writing process. If any local book clubs would like a free "Meet-The-Author" session, feel free to get in touch!

Faz (Leicester)
I've always loved reading but sometimes struggle to find the time. I'm hoping a bookclub will keep me motivated to read more and help me connect with other readers. I mostly read romance (paranormal romance is my favourite) and I occasionally read other genre's. I'm looking for a romance bookclub (also happy to host one if there are people interested)

Kirstin (Market Harborough)
I'm a 36 year old mum of 4 and I run my own business. Reading is how I relax and I usually get through 1-2 books a week. I love fantasy, anything sort of magical or witchy and moving and poignant novels. I can also devour a good thriller within a day. I'd love to meet other women nearby who also love to read and maybe make some coffee buddies too!

Margot (Market Harborough)
I have loved reading all my life. I’m 61 and a semi-retired English teacher. I find now that I’m no longer in a school (I teach one-to-one online) I miss adult interaction, especially chatting about books and films. I would love to join a book club to share ideas and meet new friends.
