Zakaria (Ipswich)

Well, I love reading. Any kind of book really, as long as it's well written. Ideally looking for more people around my age to start or join a book club with. (21 ± 5) Especially enjoy fantasy/mythological kind of stuff but I'll try out anything really. Adore anything with a strong or unique atmosphere.

Hi, I’m looking to join a book club to expand my social circles and discover books that I may not consider myself. I’m divorced and retired early, the children are at uni so I have time in my hands to try out new things.

A great heartfelt story of someone who has a beautiful, kind nature who is often ridiculed and left out by family and people in general and how people change attitudes when money is involved.

The Crossing Places by Elly Griffiths
The Crossing Places
by Elly Griffiths | Buy this book
The first of the Dr Ruth Galloway and Inspector Harry Nelson range of crime fiction books. Full of family drama, forensic archeology, crime solving, romance and more! Set in Norfolk... and so the relatively local connection makes it all the more interesting.

Steve (Stowmarket)

Hello everyone. I began reading fiction again a few years ago, and became hooked on the Inspector Rebus (Ian Rankin) and the Dr Ruth Galloway (Elly Griffiths) series of books. But I really ought to expand my reading, and would love to discuss 'good-reads' with other people. I understand that the Stowmarket Book Club (Stowmarket Library) currently has no vacancies though.

Chloe (Stowmarket)

Hi! I'm Chloe (F25), currently based close to Stowmarket but very able to travel to the likes of Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury, Colchester and Ipswich where needed! I work in a boarding school so my free time can be a little slim (outside of school holidays and half terms that is!), but I would love to expand my social circle and get to know some new people locally! I love quite a few different genres- my hyperfixations at the moment are romantasy, fantasy, historical fiction and anything mythology centred. I also fell down a rabbit hole of feminist and alternative perspective retellings (think the influx of books centred around Lady Macbeth in recent months- very into them). I'm currently making my way through Onyx Storm (third Fourth Wing book) and really enjoying it! I would love to join a book club, or even arrange a meet-up with like minded people every few weeks for a coffee or a bookstore browse. I'm very friendly and more than happy to exchange socials/numbers- reach out if you're interested!

Hi!! I'm Lou, I'm 22 and I recently moved back to Ipswich after university. I adore reading and I'd love to be able to have a wider group of people to talk about them with and just generally have a chat to, as my social circle is smaller recently.

Hollie (Stowmarket)

I am keen to meet new people who also love reading. I'd love to start maybe a fortnightly/monthly book club where we can have a natter over coffee. I am happy to host at my house or find somewhere local to meet that works for everyone. I'd also love to get various book suggestions and mix up my reading list.
