Tress of the Emerald Sea

Whimsical and reminiscent of a wonderful childhood story. Great solo read and is a fantastic introduction to the Cosmere if you'd to like to jump into the larger series.

Loen (Frome)

I’m 19 and have just moved to the area so I’m hoping to meet some people my age! I’ve loved reading since I was introduced to jacqueline wilson’s books as a kid and although I havent managed to read as much as I wanted throughout my teens, I’m now rediscovering my love for fantasy and anything with a good strong plot. I’m also a part of the lgbtq+ community so if a book has queer characters thats a big plus for me!

Big fantasy, sci-fi and classics fan. Looking for a book club in the area

Sophie (Weston-super-Mare)

Hi! I'm Sophie, a queer 30-ish-year-old who recently moved to the area from Hampshire. I'm looking for a book-club or meetups to talk about our favourite books, recommendations or just simply chat about our favourite characters! I am a big Fantasy/Romantasy and Gothic reader, and I'm also working on my own sapphic fantasy novel in my spare time.

Nailsea Sci-Fi and Fantasy (Nailsea)

I am starting a new book club in Nailsea that focuses primarily on sci-fi and fantasy novels. The plan is to meet once a month and discuss a novel we've all read over a drink or two. A nice opportunity to meet new people and discuss our shared interest in a relaxed and friendly environment. I would love to hear from anyone interested :)

Claire (Taunton)

I am a qualified English teacher and have an MA in Creative Writing. I would like to join a group that discusses books from a literary criticism perspective or who discuss literary fiction rather than popular fiction (although, of course, a book can be both literary and popular!)

Arron (Bridgwater)

Hi everyone! I’m 33 and a proud parent of three, so life can be pretty busy—but I always make time for a good book. Reading is my favorite way to unwind, especially when I can get lost in a great story. I’m a big fan of fantasy, crime, and thrillers, and I love books that keep me guessing or transport me to completely different worlds. I’m really looking forward to sharing recommendations, hearing what everyone else is reading, and being part of a group that enjoys books as much as I do! Instagram: Arrongsbookshelf

Charlie (Bridgwater)

Im an old hag, haha, enjoy lots of genres, my recent reads are, The Nickel Boys, The Book of Dust, and Black Phone.

Annie (Winscombe)

I’m 73, have always loved reading and been in book clubs wherever I’ve lived. I moved to Yatton in September from Cumbria (before that Oxfordshire) where I was actually in 2 clubs! I think a book club is about extending your range of genres, as well as enjoying those you are already familiar with. I also have always enjoyed meeting new people and socialising. If you require any more info, let me know. Annie

Kate (Highbridge)

Hi I’m Kate, I’m 26 and moved to the area just over a year ago from South Wales. Over the past few years, I have fallen back in love with reading, especially fantasy and romance books. I’d love to meet more people to chat about books with, maybe with a coffee in hand!
