Esme (Northampton)

Hi, I'm a 25 years old MA English Grad and Library / Archive assistant looking to meet other readers! I read a lot, mostly galleys, and rather than a structured book club, I'm looking to set up a bookish space, where local readers can discuss what they're reading, without the pressure. Maybe more of a book seminar than a strict book club! I'd love to talk to other people in the local area about what they're reading, their book opinions, or even just life!

One dark window

My favorite thing about this fantasy duology is that the plot is fresh, the conversations are relatable, the world's are magical as they are creepy and the romance was good. In all, I had a lot of fun reading it

The Girl with the Louding Voice

by Abi Dare | Buy this book

Abi Daré's The Girl With the Louding Voice is a compelling and inspiring debut novel that captures the indomitable spirit of a young Nigerian girl striving to overcome insurmountable odds. This richly textured narrative is both a stark reflection on the socio-economic challenges faced by women in Nigeria and a testament to the resilience and tenacity of the human spirit.
