Rachel

Meet like minded people in the local area

Courtney

27 year old mamma to a 4 year old. I fell in love with reading at the beginning of 2023, so I still class myself as a newbie. I helped create a book club in Durham where I have made some wonderful friends!

Laura

I’m a transplant to the UK from the US, 43, and a longtime book lover. I read mostly literature—classic and contemporary—but I’m also up for philosophy or non-fiction, anything that makes me stop to rethink the human condition. I would love to join a group or meet a friend interested in chatting about books and life over a coffee or on a walk (perhaps with my pup in tow)🙂

Anna Karenina

by Leo Tolstoy | Learn more and buy

Impossible to pick favorite books, but this is one that I return to every few years and get some new richness that I either missed or had not lived long enough to fully appreciate. I love the way Tolstoy lets us into even the most seemingly minor characters’ minds for glimpses of ourselves, no matter how different we might consider ourselves to the personalities or choices represented. Every character is both flawed and beautiful in their way, everyone the main protagonist in their own story.

Donna

Hi I'm 54 and love reading murders, romance and most things really. Looking to make friends and have a laugh whilst enjoying the books we read.

Susie

I'm retired and live alone. A book group would be a way of meeting people with similar interests. I've always loved reading - thrillers, romantic suspense, and historical fiction mainly but I'll try anything but Sci-fi and fantasy.

Break it Down: Prequel - The Luddite Rebellion (Wales Rising Book 1)

by Rebecca Bryn | Learn more and buy

I'd already read the following two books and enjoyed them This one shows two of the main characters growing up and why they became the people they did. It's a fascinating story clearly based on accurate research.

Marmitefairy
