Brooke

Hello, I have a superb book for book club readers.....its on Amazon 9798254021070 It is my very true story, of becoming embroiled with a psychopath when I was a psychology student, which led to 8 years of my endeavours to fix him, thereby having the perfect man. We travelled over seas to exotic islands on his boat, purchased by a wealthy widow woman.....the story is very gripping, and carries messages for women on how you can ovetcome abuse, and other psychotic behaviours, and even survive strangulation at sea.....it makes a really good discussion, lots of gritty and questions about 'why did she stay' I don't think any reader would be disappointed.

Hi! I love reading, primarily read historical non-fiction but looking to explore other genres. I work from home and have recently moved to the area, so I'm looking to combine my reading with a way to escape the house a bit more!

George

Hi, I am 27 and always happy to chat about books! I already attend a book club in Colchester but I am open to join more or even chat with other book-lovers over coffee. I live in the Colchester/Ipswich area. I like fantasy, thriller and occasionally historical non-fiction but could likely be persuaded to read from any genre.

Perdido Street Station
by China Miéville | Buy this book
Fantastic worldbuilding & always great to read fantasy that isn't afraid to move away from the common tropes of the genre!

The Pickwick Papers  by Charles Dickens
The Pickwick Papers
by Charles Dickens | Buy this book
It is a great picaresque laugh-out-loud work which also manages to be socially relevant on typical Dickensian themes of poverty, crime and punishment, hypocrisy

Alex

I'm Alex, 25, and I want to both read and write more. I'm primarily into sci-fi but I'll try pretty much anything, I'm hoping to broaden my horizons and read some books I might not consider otherwise. I'm also hoping to meet some new people :)

Alex recommends:

The Paradox Paradox by Daniel Hardcastle
The Paradox Paradox
by Daniel Hardcastle | Buy this book
A heartfelt and funny time travel story with wonderful characters, it can be dark at times but the overall message is one of hope. Twists come thick and fast, even the ones you see coming will surprise you with how they happen, and the whole thing is wrapped up in a neat little Bootstrap Paradox.

Likesbooksfay

Hi! I’m a big fan of thoughtful conversations, getting lost in a good story, and discovering new perspectives through books. I enjoy both fiction and non-fiction—especially anything that makes me think or feel deeply. Im 23, female and moved from London to Ipswich and I’m hoping to join a welcoming group where we can share honest thoughts (and maybe a few laughs too). Always open to new genres and friendly chats!

Zakaria

Well, I love reading. Any kind of book really, as long as it's well written. Ideally looking for more people around my age to start or join a book club with. (21 ± 5) Especially enjoy fantasy/mythological kind of stuff but I'll try out anything really. Adore anything with a strong or unique atmosphere.

Zakaria recommends:
