Katemail (Chichester)

I am also new to Chichester and work full time in science & tech. I’m interested in joining a book club and enjoy discussing literature, films, science and the arts. I enjoy all literary works from Jane Austen to 21stC SciFi.

Do No Harm

by Henry Marsh | Learn more and buy

Fascinating insight into the life of a contemporary neurosurgeon. Brutal, honest, and well written.

War Doctor

by David Nott | Learn more and buy

Unusual gripping insights into a British surgeon’s experiences in war zones.

Ruth W (Worthing)

I've always been a reader - anything that's well written. Have been re-reading Slow Horses lately, not just because of the TV adaptation, but also because Mick Herron is such a gifted writer. His books make me laugh out loud. I love to talk about good books I've read and to get ideas from others as to what to read next. My partner is heavily into fantasy fiction but I can't seem to get my head round that particular genre but I'm willing to be encouraged in any direction. I'm now retired. Do the usual stuff - walking a fair bit, enjoy cinema, and am a sucker for a good glass of red with any kind of cheese. Would love to meet some more people in the area, not just to talk books but can't think of a better way to get to know others.

Nic (Chichester)

I live in selsey and I love reading. I would like to join a group to be able to socialise and discuss books.

Maddie (Haywards Heath)

I think I'm fun

Escapees Book Club (Haywards Heath)

Unpretentious and game for a laugh. Curious and hungry for different stories. Slightly less keen on sci fi, always an open heart for deftly told romance … but open to persuasion in any genre. Monthly in pubs.

Frankiex (Midhurst)

27 years old. Enjoy romance novels and want to meet nice likeminded people

Maddie_Grace (Haywards Heath)

I'm looking to make friends with people who I can share books I love and explore new books with, also to be introduces to new ones. I read all over the place with great love for fantasy, greek tales turned into fantastic stories and really any moments in history. Have also been tipping my toes into non-fiction books about nature and our world. Would love to be meet at cafes or go on walks to discuss the books we discover.

Louisa - Ems (Chichester)

Looking for book recommendations and people to drink coffee with and chat books

Total bookworm - Love romances, fantasy, classics etc

Gaby (Horsham)

I’m someone who used to read veraciously as a teenager, now as a new mom of two littles I’m slowly getting back into it over the past couple of years. Looking to join a group to make new like minded friends, discover new genres, and just have a good time talking about some of our favorite reads and life in general! I’ve been gravitation g more towards fantasy and contemporary fiction at the moment, current read is the Red Rising series by Pierce Brown!!

Jane (Chichester)

I used to read a lot but have got out of the habit over the past few years! Am hoping that a book club would encourage me to read more, and also explore new authors and genres.

I love romance books, dark romance especially. I am really into mafia romance right now and love a good motorbike gang romance too.

Colin (Chichester)

Lover of literature, whether it be classics, thrillers, crime, science fiction, biography, history... Avid listener of the Backlisted podcast. Not so good at meeting people in the wild (socially pretty anxious), so hoping a mutual love of books might build bridges.

Laura (Chichester)

Book worm - looking for a local book clubs ages 20-40

Rebecca (Hassocks)

I want to take up reading again and love the idea of a book club, it’s interesting to see other’s perspectives on the books and also nice to meet new local people. My preferred genres are true life stories and biographical.

Helen (Arundel)

I love being drawn into a book, when you just have to have a quick 2 pages before you can carry on with your day! It is only recently, as I no longer work full time, that I feel I have time to indulge in a book. I am looking to meet similar people, and to read books I wouldn’t necessarily choose myself.
