Joanne (Bath)

I'm an author and a lifelong lover of books. My first novel, Dancing on Knives, is coming out in January 2025. I'd love to connect with local reading groups who might be interested in reading a Bosnian ghost story about the dark legacy of war, and the unexpected roads that lead to redemption.

Gail (Taunton)

I am 67 and still an avid reader, of all kinds of books, including non-fiction. Have just discovered Fitzcorraldo publishers who do translations and read a wonderful French book. But I will read anything, including science fiction, fantasy, poetry and eco stories.

Claus (Weston-super-Mare)

I am new to reading. It is not that I have nerver read a book! But never was a passion until recently, when I moved to England (Weston-super-mare) and I found myself reading more. I am discovering nice fiction, non-fiction, biographies, philosophy, etc. books. The only books I have not tried, and I think I may not enjoy are fantasy books, but please do not judge for that. I know many people love those type of books and movies, but is not something I enjoy. I am interested in finding a book club, where we can meet to discuss about a specific book, make friends, enjoy some tea and a nice chat.

Claus recommends:
