Giuseppe (London)

I'm an avid reader with a passion for sci-fi and horror, but I also enjoy diving into the classics, historical novels, and fantasy. I'm also fascinated by modern retellings of Greek and ancient myths, always looking for fresh takes on timeless stories.

Piranesi

by Susanna Clarke | Buy this book

Piranesi by Susanna Clarke is a hauntingly atmospheric novel set in a mysterious, labyrinthine world. The story follows the protagonist, Piranesi, who lives in an endless house filled with towering statues, vast oceans, and intricate, uncharted spaces. As he uncovers unsettling truths about his existence and the world around him, the narrative delves into themes of memory, reality, and identity. Clarke's lyrical prose and intricate world-building create a captivating and enigmatic journey that leaves readers questioning the nature of their own perceptions.

Book Lovers Dating Site (London)

I run Book Lovers - the dating site for people who love books. As a book lover, I always imagined meeting my perfect match in a second-hand bookshop or a book club. My match had to love books. After searching for a dating site for book lovers, I couldn’t find one, so I decided to build it myself. The website is called Book Lovers, and is now online: www.booklovers.dating I’m trying to let all book lovers know about the site, so I thought I’d post it here. If you think it is a good idea and it would be useful for you or your book club members, please check out the site. I would really appreciate your help. Lots of people have already found love on the site. Hopefully you or your book club friends will be next...

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!

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!

It's Kind of a Funny Story

by Ned Vizzini | Buy this book

The book is both humorous and heart-wrenching, with a message that encourages readers to appreciate life and to seek help when needed. It’s a powerful story that resonates with many, especially those who may be dealing with similar struggles. It’s also quite moving because, as you mentioned, the author, Ned Vizzini, tragically passed away after completing the book, which adds an additional layer of poignancy to the work.
