Enjoy reading and would like to combine with a social element. Haven't managed to find an in person group suitable

Lessons in chemistry

by Bonnie Garmus | Learn more and buy

Was late to the party with this one and therefore a bit nervous it wouldn't live up to the hype but I loved it. Turns out I love a book where the central character thinks a bit differently to the norm - give me Eleanor Oliphant, Ove, Molly the maid and of course Elizabeth Zott!

Jasmine recommends:

Full Tilt

by Emma Scott | Learn more and buy

From the very beginning, the story takes an eloquently beautiful look on life, and in particular, death. It is gut-wrenchingly sad, and made me cry heavily. 10/10 my favourite book.

J (Wolverhampton)

I was a serious reader in my younger years and now looking to get back into it, explore new books and genres and also meet new people of a similar mindset.

J recommends:

Skeleton Key

by Erin Kelly | Learn more and buy

A lot of misdirection yet enjoyable backstory that keeps you gripped to the last minute

Bookish25 (Coventry)

Looking for a book club to enjoy the classics with like minded people. I love reading Shakespeare, Dostoevsky, Joyce, Kafka … all the greats 🙂 To meet either online or every few weeks would be best for me. Looking forward to connecting.

Bookish25 recommends:

Paradise Lost

by John Milton | Learn more and buy

A literary masterpiece. Poetic prose poem of exceptional scope and ingenious execution. One of my all time favourites.

Hajra (Birmingham)

Hajra recommends:

An Ember in the Ashes

by Sabaa Tahir | Learn more and buy

If you are looking for a book that has romance, fantasy and little smut this is the book for you. I was hooked from page one, Sabaa Tahir has such beautiful writing that encapsulates you into another world. it has drama, suspense, comedy, and most of all Elais.

Ibrat (Solihull)

Hi Judy I have always enjoyed reading but last 2 years I've had an on and off relation with it so I am looking to start again. It would be nice to be around people who would share the same enthusiasm about the same things and discuss our observations and thoughts. I look forward to joining your club! Thanks 🧡

Haaris Chohan (Birmingham)

I love fantasy books, and I am looking to find kind people who would want to review a book I wrote.

Haaris Chohan recommends:

Claws of Dominion: Swinging Swords

by Haaris Chohan | Learn more and buy

I believe it is a medieval ride through a gripping political landscape inspired by A song of Ice and Fire and The Hunger Games.

Nic (Coventry)

Officially I'm retired, so now I just pursue property investment for social housing and working as a therapist. But I should get out more and combining that with getting back into reading more than just a daily newspaper appeals to me

Nic recommends:

The Woman

by Jane Upton | Learn more and buy

This is actually a play script, but I saw it at the Belgrade and it's engaging and challenging

Mel (Walsall)

A filmmaking student whose also into writing and reading. Open to hearing thoughts and opinions and book recs!

Deano (Walsall)

I am a 72 year old lady who loves reading and would like to join a club with people to discuss a book after reading

Pawlean (Solihull)

As an avid Magic Realism and Fantasy reader who doesn't like Romantasy nor smut (unpopular opinion, I know!), I would love to find like-minded readers to explore those genres with - and go beyond the redundant social media book trends that cast an unfortunate shadow to so many hidden gems. :)

Pawlean recommends:

My Lady Jane

by Brodi Ashton, Cynthia Hand, Jodi Meadows | Learn more and buy

What's not to love in a semi-historial fiction that gives a prominent female figure a second (and longer) life, and surrounds her with magic? This book is the exception to my No Romantasy preference.
