I'm 30 years old, currently averaging reading around 2 books a week but with very few friends that share an appreciation for the hobby. It would be great to interact with similar minded people!

Daniel Fella recommends:

Underworld

by Don DeLillo | Buy this book

It's a panoramic, unraveling masterpiece that deals with the best and worst of humanity, is a harrowing insight into the paranoia of global relations, as well as benefiting from the usual DeLillo humour, endless, poetic description of minor details and the human pysche. Brilliant book by a brilliant author.

DanniM

I read every single day, also writing my own novel. I’m looking to expand my reading genre and to speak with people who have the Same love of literature as I do. I’m 33 years old so I’m in the age where None of my friends have time to read so I have nobody to discuss my thoughts with. My favourite books are the happy ever after “easy readers” but I also have an appreciation for some Shakespeare, my favourite is McBeth, and poetry about Love. I don’t enjoy sci-fi novels as I like a story which is believable and relatable in some circumstances. I live with my boyfriend and my dog close to the town centre and work in further education which is incredibly rewarding, but stressful at times which is one of the reasons I love reading so much. It’s an escape from the monotony of life, and every book I read makes me a better writer
