David (London)

I am a freelance art historian with a wide range of cultural interests and literary tastes.

I'm a 29 year old guy who enjoys reading, I would love the chance to join a club to discuss books, get recommendations and meet like minded people. In particular, I like classics, Sci-Fi, fantasy, but am quite open-minded to new things. I'm currently based in Camberwell.

Erge (London)

Interested in connecting with people who are in turn interested in expanding horizons through reading - either fiction or non-fiction. Am interested in psychoanalysis, philosophy, poetry, literary criticism but also great fiction…

Shani (London)

Hiya, my name is Shani, and I'm 21. I've always loved reading since I was young, and I'm quite fond of classics, magical realism and fantasy. My two favourite books are 'The Phantom of the Opera' by Gaston Leroux and 'The Five People You Meet in Heaven' by Mitch Albom. I'd love to broaden my knowledge of literature and expand on the genres I am currently into, whilst socialising with like-minded people :)

BeginnerReader2003 (London)

Hi I'm a university student looking to get into reading and trying to be consistent with it. I enjoy reading but find it difficult to get myself to sit down for a long time to actually read. I'd like the accountability that a book club with give me and I'd also love to meet other people who are interested in reading.

Andy (London)

I’ve been a bookworm since the age of six. Books have been my constant companion throughout my life. I don’t have any friends who read and my fiancé isn’t a big reader either so I’m looking for some fellow book lovers to gush with about my latest reads. I read mostly fiction (though I enjoy a good memoir as well). I’ll read most genres — from literary fiction to crime, thriller, fantasy and sci fi. I generally eschew romances but I’m open to being convinced! I would love to meet up to discuss books over coffee or a glass of wine!

Andy recommends:

Norwegian Wood

by Haruki Murakami | Learn more and buy

Murakami is known for his surreal, dreamlike works and they’re all stunning. Norwegian Wood however (one of his best-known works) is different, being more reality-based. It’s about a student in Tokyo in the 1960s who meets two very different young women (one of whom is very troubled), and the relationships (romantic and platonic) he develops with them. It’s a deeply moving. TW: suicide

xvoks (London)

I am a 23 year old who used to love reading as a child but slowly stopped making time for it over the years. Looking for a way to get back into reading that keeps me accountable and also to meet new people. I currently read a lot of self improvement books but open to anything.

JuliaD (London)

I’m a 63 year old feminist who loves to read sci fi, biography, contemporary fiction, classics, kids books, greek mythology as well as about feminism. I’d love to have the opportunity to stimulate my brain and have some fun sharing views with others.

Shalini (London)

Looking to meet a few like minded people, get and share some good book recommendations.

Shalini recommends:

Wrong Place Wrong Time

by Gillian McAllister | Learn more and buy

A twisted psychological thriller, exciting till the very last page.

Homegoing
