Amanda (Bootle)

I'm looking to meet like minded people who enjoy reading/nice people! I've enjoyed reading The Pianist, Thursday Murder Club, Weyward and The Lighthouse Witches in the past year after a fairly long break from reading. I'd like to get back into reading more again. I've never really read fantasy but I think I'd love it. My fav film is Avatar. I like themes exploring consciousness and mystery in life and in books. I've read quite a lot of books that were made into films and I enjoy watching films with a live orchestra too. I love stories with an underdog of any genre and seem to like books with a war or sports theme of this ilk. I've recently started reading feminist literature too. I'm 48 :)

Empire of the Sun

by JG Ballard | Learn more and buy

It was so immersive and I love stories with roots in real life. The characters were so rich and it was really moving. You felt for the young man and how he had to grow so quickly when his world is turned upside down

Tim (Newtown-le- Willows)

Love books and looking share this with other people. Would love to meet new people and share the passion for reading.

Patinsouthport (Southport)

Moved to Southport about 2 and a half years ago. I haven't really got a friend's group. I have twin boys and four chickens instead. I would like to take the opportunity to meet people with similar interests. As I am not a big pub goer. I like most genre's particularly dystopia's, alternate histories, cy-punk, science fiction, steam punk. Also classics, satire and theatre scripts (I used to work in that field) am a published author on academic bob-fiction work. I also read a lot of history and environmental stuff.

Phil (St Helens)

I’m Phil, very much a latecomer to fiction and I’m still seeking my go to genre. I love a good thriller, or anything engaging and entertaining to be honest, although sci-fi & fantasy has never appealed. I’d love to join a group If anyone could recommend?

Phil recommends:

How to Stop Time

by Matt Haig | Learn more and buy

It was truly entertaining, ironically on the fantastical side, but very much enjoyed by someone who says he doesn’t favour fantasy, it was easy and relaxing. I can’t offer much more of a synopsis as I can’t remember but I recalled drifting along with the plot every night and then missing it once read.

Clairebear (Wallasey)

I love to read. I have a kindle but nothing beats holding a proper book and chilling. I like a while range of genres including romance, fantasy, thrillers, crime , horror. I'm looking for like minded people who also love to read. I'm 37 and live in wallasey.

Mike (Birkenhead)

I like to discover new books and genres and want to chat about the same.

Joshua (St Helens)

Reader

Ahamed (Liverpool)

I am seriously interested in fantasy, adventure, books about life, emotional books, and series fit for young adults are the kind of books I am interested in. And, I am actually looking forward to making some life-long friends through the subject I am interested in and am hoping to find people to talk and interact with. I am actually a pretty fun person and would love to spend some time out of the house. I am pretty much free and can meet up whenever possible if it is only once a day!!! That’s sarcasm BTW! So very looking forward to meeting some new faces and building long lasting bonds!!!

Ahamed recommends:

The Suspect

The plot of this book is amazing and the twists in the storyline would make you gasp audibly. To be honest, not many authors have that skill but this one do. I love the book for the amazing characters it introduced into my life which I couldn’t forget even if I wanted to!

The Last House on Needless Street

A gripping and uniquely told mystery, partly told through the POV of a cat and will rip your heart out.

Aisha (Birkenhead)

As a kid I loved reading- especially fantasy books! As an adult I find that I often don't feel like I have enough time to read anymore, which breaks my heart. I figured joining a book club will help me to set time apart to read again.
