I'm Sophie. I'm looking for a book club in the southside of Glasgow - I used to love reading but fell out of it when I had my two babies so looking to get back into it! I like history and anything psychological but open to trying new genres.

Erin

Hi I’m Erin! I was such a bookworm growing up but life/work got in the way. I’ve just recently got back into reading and want to expand my literary horizons. I’ll read everything and anything but I particularly enjoy classics, fantasy and crime. I’m 28 and have a ginger cat called Gus. I tend to be a bit shy but trying to get myself out there!

Erin recommends:

Flowers for Algernon
by Daniel Keys | Learn more and buy
This one really got me! A really interesting concept about a man with a mental disability undergoing a surgery to improve his intelligence. It was one of the first books that stayed with me for a long time afterwards and made me question my own character.

The writers style is almost cinematic in its descriptions, & scene setting. It is also a great take on a well known story

Chloe

I was a big reader when I was growing up and as I’ve gotten a bit older life seems to have gotten so busy it’s sort of fallen by the wayside. I’d love to have a reason to pick up a new book each month and then meet up with people for coffee or a drink to discuss what we enjoyed about it! Fantasy is probably my fav genre but I also love fiction, some period/historical fiction and an open to some non fiction (mainly memoirs). I also enjoy some sci-fi! Hoping to meet a group of similarly interested people in their mix/late twenties and thirties ☺️

T

Hi, I’m T, and I’m interested in starting or joining a book club that centres BIPOC voices, with a particular focus on Palestinian and broader Global South narratives. I’m open to both fiction and non fiction, especially books that explore power, identity, colonialism, memory, and resistance. I’m drawn to works like Orientalism, as well as Palestinian literature such as Men in the Sun, which combine political depth with strong storytelling. I’d love a space that encourages thoughtful discussion, critical reading, and learning from lived experiences across cultures

This book is as dense and wild as the deep Central African jungle it was born from. Sanity has been left behind and replaced by pure poetry.

The author wrote his autobiography and thought it too dull, so he threw in a completely unrelated, but suspenseful tale of infidelity to keep the readers interested.
