KT (Sunderland)
I'm a teacher who took early retirement to look after family and live life more fully. I love all things 'bookish' ... the feel & smell of a book will always be a joy to me. I will read absolutely anything but I am drawn to books which leave their mark long after I've read the last page. Looking to join ( or even start up) a book club in Sunderland.

Ells (Sunderland)
Hey, i’m an avid reader, especially contemporary and literary fiction, I love any kind of book about morally-grey women, women who are off-putting or just a little bit weird e.g. Boy Parts by Eliza Clark. I also like reading non-fiction, particularly more political books, I love anything Andrea Dworkin. I’d love to find others with similar reading interests to myself.

Becca (Gateshead)
Hi! My name is Becca and I enjoy reading a mix of genres, typically switching between fantasy themed books and fiction! I was looking at starting/joining a small circle that gets together for a cuppa and reads short books of all different genres. Another idea - my background and interests centre around environmentalism, and if people are interested I would love to start a space specifically centered around that!

Hilary (Newcastle upon Tyne)
I want my group to meet on zoom. I am at present in a book group via zoom but the group is shared zoom and actual meeting and l fi d that the hybrid set up does not work well. My interests are wide and varied but perhaps Scottish history and Latin. I am very elderly and fairly immobile, but fortunately with my wits. I live in Jesmond, Newcastle upon Tyne. I have three adult children none of whom lives in the north east.
