Kerry

Turning a young 50 this year. Always loved reading but lost the thirst for it over the last year, be nice to meet new people while finding my love for books again. Would be lovely if I found a good book club that meets regularly in the Powys / Herefordshire area

Trust Nobody

by June Hampson | Buy this book

The first in a series of books that takes you from post war Gosport Hampshire to the 70/80s following a local mother and her family. Connected to the London underworld.

Jane

Hi looking to join a Hereford book group

Linda

I'm semi-retired, new to the area and living rurally. An avid reader since age 5, I love connecting with book people of all ages! My favourites are many, including post-apoc and dystopian, sci-fi, crime fiction, psychological thrillers, contemporary fiction, and a range of non-fiction too. Happy to travel for a meetup and a coffee!

Something to Live For.

by Richard Roper | Buy this book

A thought-provoking and funny book about loneliness, connection, relationships and death.

I live in Hereford but this isn’t available on the drop down list. I’m trying to get back into reading and needing new people. Currently using mobility suds as a result of an injury so can’t access some premises. Available most days😀

James

Hi I'm James! 23 and getting back into reading from when I was younger. My favourite books include The Bell Jar, Jane Eyre, 1984, The Handmaid's Tale, Lapvona and Let The Right One In. I'd really like a friend or group to analyse books with! Nothing thrills me like a good post text deep-dive :)

Heloise

I'm a specialist teacher at RNCB Hereford. I'm interested in many subjects including local history, music, natural history and creativity of any kind.

12 Bytes

by Jeanette Winterson | Buy this book

Erudite, detailed, specific, funny, thought provoking, essential reading. Best book I have read in 20 years.

Never judge a book by its cover!

Love reading. Would love to share and chat about the books I’ve read. I especially enjoy books about Medieval and Tudor history, Agatha Christie and P.G. Woodhouse. Mind you, I’ve read so many different books it’s hard to pin down a specific genre that best suits me. Mind you, if it’s good, it’s good!

The Wager

by David Grann | Buy this book

It gives a great insight into the lives of men who made their living on the seas. It shows that there are often two if not three sides to every story. You get a real feel for the utter hardships and poverty experienced by the lower class seamen of the time and the will to survive by some. A must read.

I like psychology, history

I’m Oluwatomisin Israel I have a desire of reading psychology and history I look for some one will can read together
