Looking to join a book club in Perth? My favorite genres are fantasy and crime!

Elise (Perth)

Hi I'm Elise. I'm 28, and I like reading pretty much anything. I love to grab books from charity shops and read something I might not have heard of before. I'm looking to make some more friends in the local area as well as to discover my next reads. I'm not looking for anything too formal, but I would love to meet to discuss books maybe once or twice a month.

Alicia (Pitlochry)

I love to read

caitlinreads (Perth)

Hi everyone, I'm 26 and have finally rekindled my love for reading after graduating - I will read anything; classics, fantasy, sci-fi, crime. I'm looking for a bookclub which dabbles with a variety of genres :)

Alex (Perth)

I'm a happily retired senior support worker in mental healthcare. I'd enjoy chatting about my personal favourite genres and enjoy hearing about and learning from other people's favourites. I read either historical novels or actual histories, I loved Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall series, or my other , very different, choice is American Crime fiction. Everything from Chandler to contemporary writers.

The Last Coyote

by Michael Connelly | Learn more and buy

A veteran detective investigates the murder of his own mother , killed when he was aged 12. Connelly is consistently a brilliant writer. This novel involves references to the detectives' (involuntary) participation in some counselling sessions. As a trained counsellor I can say it comes closer to the processes of counselling than most fictional efforts.

Mathilda (Perth)

I love reading books, and discovering new books, I just moved to Perth and would like to make friends.

MHB (Perth)

Looking for a book club in Perth for a friend.

Hayley (Perth)

Hello! I'm Hayley, 26 and spend most of my spare time reading! Mainly fiction, historical fiction and crime are my favourites but I will read most genres :) I have started reading more nonfiction too which I'm enjoying! I have been thinking for a while it would be lovely to be part of a small book club! I moved to Perth two years ago but haven't found my way to one yet!

The Last Witch of Scotland

by Philip Paris | Learn more and buy

A book that will always be on my mind!

Imogen (Perth)

Hello, I’m Imogen, I’m 25 and I’m interested in joining a book group! I work full time in a museum/archive and have been trying to get back into reading more regularly. I love fanstasy, thrillers, mystery and am willing to dabble in other genres too, I just need helpful recommendations of where to begin! :)

Jemma95 (Crieff)

Hello! I've always wanted to join a book club but never worked up the courage until now! I'd like to meet other book lovers and expand my horizons to different genres I wouldn't otherwise choose. I usually stick to fiction so would be nice to branch out.

Helen (Pitlochry)

Hi Julie, I think this is the right contact - I met you last month at the bowling club? Can you send me the Facebook link and the name of the book which was chosen for next rime? Thanks veyr much Helen McDade

Julie (Pitlochry)

I've recently retired and moved to the area. I love reading all genre of books and would like to meet like minded people to discuss books with.

Kirsty (Perth)

Hi! Just turned 30 (can’t believe it) and I would love to read more. In my teens and early 20s I loved reading and would read often but I just don’t prioritise it! Would love to join a small book club or just meet friends who are also on a journey to read more and we can motivate each other and chat about our books!

Anna (Perth)

Hi, I'm looking for a book club that reads mainly fiction but is open to dipping into other genres from time to time. I tend to enjoy literary fiction — recently I've really enjoyed Nell Zink — and I also love essays and short stories, particularly writers like Jo Ann Beard and Lucia Berlin. I'm drawn to books with strong voices, sharp observation and a bit of originality. The classics are also important. Hoping to find a group that meets in person in Perth City.

Mandy (Blairgowrie)

I have always loved reading - crime fiction, general fiction, classics - and still get through a lot of books. I recently retired and miss the social interaction of work. Would be great to join a book club with a diverse membership.

Mandy recommends:

A Little Life

by Hanya Yanagihara | Learn more and buy

It's a relentlessly sad book yet kept me engrossed through its 800+ pages because she writes so well. I was drawn to all the main characters and felt their pain. Although it should be a depressing read, it is at the same time insightful, and full of love, hope and the value of friendship.

Demon Copperhead

by Barbara Kingsolver | Learn more and buy

A story about a boy growing up in the Appalachians in America in challenging circumstances. It is a retelling of David Copperfield. The author deals with the issues facing Demon brilliantly and I couldn't put the book down. Will undoubtedly become a modern classic.

Rowan (Perth)

Hi everyone! I’m Rowan, 26 and a lover of reading pretty much anything and writing :) Have been looking for a book club for a while and would love to get together to discuss books!

Rowan recommends:
