Shiraz (Bridgwater)
Fairly new to the Somerset area. Recently I have visited Portugal and started up reading whilst on holiday. I enjoyed myself so much reading and love to read books which you can’t put down & loose yourself in. It is very relaxing reading,

I’m thinking of setting up a (Retro) Crime Book Club in Yeovil. It’s only an idea at the moment to see if there’s any interest. Several people have said to me this is the particular genre they enjoy and they don’t like other groups where anything at all can be selected to read. I’m a published author of murder mysteries and would love to be able to set up my own group.
Sign in to contactJack (Weston-super-Mare)
I am twenty-five years old. I prefer to read comics, generally, although I wouldn't consider myself a fan of superheroes; my favourite comic is Watchmen. I'm trying to read traditional novels again since I own a collection of classic novels I've wanted to read for a while, specifically the works of Hermann Hesse. I also take an interest in dark or psychological literature such as Woom and Katabasis, the former of which I recently read, the latter of which I plan to. I'm an aspiring writer, too. I had planned to write my own comic series but, due to a lack of artist talent, fear it may never get off the ground. I would write traditionally if I was able but I have significant trouble with descriptions. Writing comics has allowed me to structure my scenes without interrupting the flow of the story as I would if I was writing a traditional novel. I consider myself eloquent, so writing is a medium I could see myself suited for.

I like fictional crime, classics, general fiction but not too romancy or sci-fi. I am a lifelong booklover looking to join a local club.

Cheddar Sci-Fi and Fantasy (Cheddar)
I am starting a new book club in Cheddar 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 :)
Sign in to contactDaisiehaze (Chard)
Hi, I’m Charleigh I’m a huge lover of fantasy and romantasy, especially books with great characters, mythology, folklore and enough emotional damage to make me question why I read them. I will read any genre but I do struggle with Sci-fi. I’m looking to connect with other readers and would love to join a local book club to meet people who love books as much as I do and have a good chat about them.📚
Sign in to contactGreg (Taunton)
37 year old living in Taunton. I love to read and I'm particularly big on fantasy (and any subgenres), although I enjoy reading other genres too. I'm looking to connect with other bookish people in the area as most of my friends are not interested in reading. Looking to join a club or just connect with people, so feel free to reach out!

I’d love to join a book club as none of my friends are readers and I can’t speak to anyone about all the books I love!! I pretty much read every genre but I love romance, fantasy and crime!

I'm Ryan, 31, and love fantasy and horror. Just moved to the area and trying to find some book friends. If I'm not reading I'm likely hiking, pottering around the garden centre, or trying to write my first novel.

Sign in to contactYeovil Romantasy Book Club (Yeovil)
I’m looking for people to join a book club in the Yeovil area, although I’m happy to travel further out. A chance to make friends, discuss books, get new recommendations, maybe do some fun book-related crafts. 😊
Sign in to contactDani (Yeovil)
Hi! I’m 26 and reading is one of my favourite things to do. My favourite genre is romantasy but I also love a bit of sci-fi. If I’m not reading I’m probably crafting. I moved to Somerset last year and would love to make some friends. 😊

Tetiana (Nailsea)
My name is Tanya, 72, and I moved to Nailsea from Surrey recently to be closer to my family. I would like to join the reading club because reading is what I do in my spare time, mainly historical novels. Also I’d like to meet new friends with similar interests. I started reading early, but really enjoying reading since I became a teenager, and it was mainly classical literature. I found for myself French writers like George Sand, Victor Hugo, Alexandre Dumas, Honore de Balzac, Emil Zola, later Scottish R. L. Stevenson and Thackeray, I didn’t enjoy reading Charles Dickens, I found his books dark and gloomy. I am also familiar with Russian, German and American literature. Theodore Dreiser is among my favourites.
