Claire (Salisbury)

Hi there, I'm a book lover (just about to turn 30) who is interested in reading pretty much any fictional genre for any age group, but I do have a pretty short attention span ie. Usually gravitate towards books less than 500 pages. I'm a mum of two boys finding it difficult to meet friends, and would love to meet some fellow book lovers who would be free for daytime weekend meetups who wouldn't mind a couple of kids tagging along!

Paul G (Chippenham)

Hi, I’m Paul. I’m 58 and taking a career break. Looking for activities for which I didn’t have time or energy when I was working. I did attend a couple of book clubs over a decade ago but after a busy day’s work, found I’d be nodding off! I want it to be social but for it to be mainly to talk about the book.
