Feels like a warm hug

Vick

I have always loved reading. I was a member of a bookclub in England and enjoyed discovering new must Reads and genres through others choices and recommendations. Having relocated to Wales I am looking for a new bookclub to join to share my favourite books. Talk all things books and to make new friends Genres I tend to read are mystery, thrillers and historical fiction or books that are set over multiple time lines.

Dance to the Death

by Shirley Ballas | Buy this book

A murder mystery set in the world of professional Ballroom and Latin. Perfect for fans of Strictly Come Dancing, it has a lot of twists and turns and characters you care about.

V

I am a bookworm. Once I start a good book I will read it within a few days. Genres I tend to read are Thrillers, mysteries, Crime and Historical. Favourite authors are BA Paris, Harriet Tice, Lulu Taylor, Claire Mckintosh, Harriet Tice. Moved to Wales from England this year so looking to meet fellow book worms.

in the heart of the sea

by nathaniel philbrick | Buy this book

just read it, then you will know why this is so great.

The slightly anarchic book club

To meet up with like minded people who love to read and share their reading experiences by discussing our favourite authors in a friendly non judgemental atmosphere. No reading from a book list but hoping that it may persuade you to try a new genre you'd previously not considered. First meeting 9 December 24 at Ammannford library

Have been an avid reader forever. Trouble is it is solitary therefore would like to join a club in Ammanford/Llanelli area. Please contact me at seniorsl@outlook.com.

Morgan

I probably spend too much time reading. Every now and again, I shift genre, currently I enjoy British crime novels and sometimes something a little more fluffy for bedtime reading. It would be great to help organise a venue local to the Ammanford area and make some new friends as well

Morgan recommends:

The Raging Storm

by Ann Cleeves | Buy this book

I like the main character, Matthew Venn, his character flaws, the evolution of his relationships, something I feel to be one of the strengths of this enduringly popular author

Diane

Looking to join a book club, who meet up in the evening.

Gavin

Big love of cosy murder mysteries. Robert Thorogood, Ian Moore, Christie, Osmand, Alan Bennett, spy novels Flemming Le Carre, Slow horses. and fantasy book by Terry Pratchett etc. Getting back into reading and would love to find a book Clun and be introduced to new novels.

Gavin recommends:

Death and croissants

by Ian Moore | Buy this book

The recluatnce of the hero to get involved in a murder investigation and the interference it causes to his day dreaming about classic films and looking after his hens Sent in a fictional Gollet Valley in France, a brilliant read with fantastic funny characters.

Autumn

Definitely an avid reader. I will try most anything if it’s well written. I adore the classics with Austen and Eliot leading. I enjoy historical fiction. Most recent modern fiction I enjoyed was Alias Grace, Atwood. I’m less keen on Crime or Romance. Lively conversation about books would be fab. Let’s find a local place to form a group and meet up?

Autumn recommends:
