Based near Grantham, reading is my escape and delight; writing gives me my sense of freedom and skills for my working life. I love bookshops, libraries, coffee shops with my kindle in hand and always have a notebook to hand for those book suggestions and writing ideas. I’d love to join a local book group. My main reads are romance, women’s fiction, crime and detective stories and gardening books. If it has library, coffee, book or reading in the title I’m likely to pick it up and start to read!

I absolutely love reading and my style is crime and psychological thrillers with twists that keeps me guessing whodunit. We can start a book club and invite other to join in. As long as there's no romantic Mills and Boons on the program :-). I am not one for small talk and having a lot of opinion to express like to hear what others also think and discuss my or their interpretation. Let me know if you're interested and we can take it from there. Thank you

Eclectic reader guided by the vibes - I like fantasy, cosy crime, queer romance, classic lit - anything I can curl up and enjoy with an iced coffee and my reading playlist 😊 I'd love to have more people to talk to in-person about books, and motivate myself to finish a few more this year!

I could have chosen any Discworld book, honestly - they're all incredible! But I have a real soft spot for the witches, and I love the Tiffany Aching stories. They're touching and funny and profound all at once - Terry's trademark style.

Interesting in reading just about anything. Looking to combine my goals of becoming more well-read and bettering my social skills. Currently began reading 'Dracula' and 'Pride and Prejudice'. Enjoy film and have recently developed a love for Expressionist art and wish to develop my creative, artistic side. Enjoy non-fiction and exploring the works of past scholars such as Marx or Hobbes. Enjoy the writings of DuBois and of bell hooks.
