I work part time (a doctor), have read alot for decades and would like to explore books with like minded people. Preferred genres: classic travel writing (Travels with a Tangerine), William Dalrymple, psychology, some biography and autobiography (Long Walk to Freedom). I look forward to hearing from you.

I like thrillers, especially crime but also contemporary literature by such authors as Lisa Jewell, Kate Atkinson, Adele Parks & Jodie Picoult to name but a few. I would like to meet monthly, meet new people & try authors I’ve never read before.

Eliza

I'm a teenager in leicester and I really want to join a club of some sort that isn't sport related. So I figured a book club would be a good idea because I love to read and I get through quite a few books per month! But I haven't been able to find any book clubs near me for my age group. If anyone knows of any book clubs I could join then that would be amazing. I read pretty much every genre of books except horror or thriller and I particularly like fantasy books like harry potter or Lord of the rings. Again, if you know of a book club I could join then I'd love to know about it.

I started reading over the summer to pass time and I am enjoying it quite a bit! I would like to read more books this year, both fiction and non-fiction. I am not very good at picking books to read myself so I hope that a book group will hopefully share some ideas with me. I am open to any genres.

Hi i’m Millie (21) from Leicester. I love reading, mostly romance and fantasy! I’m looking for other people who read to be friends as none of my friends do 😭 Insta is @millie.jacques 😚🫶🏻🫶🏻

Michelle

I like to read and want to have people to talk to about it, I don't read a lot of contemporary stuff though, I'm mostly into classics, old and obscure sorts of classics, or just old and obscure stuff. Not that I'm super smart or have loads of intelligent things to say about them. Just wondered if there was anyone else interested in that kind of thing.

Jayden

Hi, I'm Jayden. Non-binary queer from Leicester. I'm looking for a book club to join. Happy to give anything a go, though I really enjoy reading LGBTQ+ books. Don't quite understand how this website works; thought we'd be able to see some sort of list of book clubs?! Or I'm missing something. My insta is @neurospicy.enby - Let me know if you know a good, friendly book club in Leicester :)

Laura

I’ve been looking for a book group for a while and haven’t found one yet. Mid 30s and will happily give anything a read, but would like to get recommendations to try new genres / authors 😊
