Umar (London)
I have always had a fascination for books and literature. Unfortunately, I don't have many friends who read as much as I do. Therefore I'm looking to join a bookclub to share my thoughts and feelings about whatever book is being read!

Jennibay (London)
I’m originally from New Jersey but have been in the UK since 2013. I work in the homeless sector. Looking for a literary book club somewhere in Central. Even better if it was a dog friendly book club, but not necessary.

Hi! I'm a structural engineer with a passion for learning and exploring new ideas. In my free time, I love reading across a variety of genres, from thrillers to non-fiction, and I’m always looking to expand my horizons with fresh book recommendations. I’m hoping to join a book group to connect with like-minded people, discuss different perspectives, and make some new friends along the way. I’d love to meet up once a month or so, to dive into different books and share our thoughts!

Susan (London)
I am a female retired art/ design teacher. I enjoy reading both fact and fiction. I have recently finished reading Ali Smith Companion Piece. I am now starting Butter by Asako Yuznki, which I was given for Christmas. Apart from Horror, I am open to most genres. I really enjoy discussing a book I have read and am fascinated by the different reactions to plots and characters.

Hi, I’m Naomi! I’m an avid reader with a soft spot for introspective, character-driven stories. I love books that explore complex emotions and human connections. Outside of reading, I enjoy meaningful conversations, discovering new music, and reflecting on life’s intricacies. I’m excited to meet others who share my passion for writing!

Hello, I am a woman in my late 40s, love reading - literary fiction of most kinds but especially love speculative fiction and anything challenging/off-kilter e.g. 'The Unconsoled' by Kazuo Ichiguro, most Haruki Murakami, 'The Tin Drum' by Gunther Grass to name a very few, also love music biographies. I'd love to join a thoughtful but unpretentious, friendly and relaxed book group in SE London.

All the world’s a page (London)
Just relocated to the area. Looking for something for me now my children are late teens and pretty self sufficient. Love everything from crime and psychological thrillers to chick lit, fantasy fiction, philosophical fiction and dystopia. Willing to give most books a chance.

salma (London)
I enjoy reading non-fiction books, particularly those related to self-improvement, productivity, and understanding human behavior. Some of my favorites include The Bullet Journal Method by Ryder Carroll, Atomic Habits by James Clear, and Everybody Lies by Seth Stephens-Davidowitz. I also appreciate books that explore science and psychology, like How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan and The Ape that Understood the Universe by Steve Stewart-Williams. Additionally, I enjoy books on societal issues, such as What's Our Problem?: A Self-Help Book for Societies, and practical guides like How to Break Up with Your Phone: The 30-Day Plan to Take Back Your Life. I’m also drawn to books that explore capitalism and its impact on society, economy, and individual lives. I enjoy reading about how capitalist systems function, their influence on culture, and their ethical implications. Books that provide insights into these topics help me understand the complex dynamics of economic systems and the way they shape modern life.

Long term avid reader happily sat before a fireplace with a good book for an entire weekend. Book interests range wildly, but generally like books that leave an impression either due to their writing style or content.

Lilly Reader 12 (London)
I am now semi retired. I love reading and can't resist purchasing novels where the characters or storyline piques my interest. Sometimes life gets in the way and need a space where I need to engage with turning the pages of books on some regular basis. Would love to then exchange direct views / opinions to widen my thinking of the plot / character(s)
