Abbey
I moved to the UK in February and am looking to start a book club in South West London called Books and Snacks. Wanting to read a mix of genres such as fantasy, romance, thriller, and general fiction. Currently reading Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier and the 4th book in the Thursday Murder Club series.

I enjoy the classics and epics - particularly anything with mythological or religious narrative and symbolism. I also read non-fictions about these topics, often with philosophical or sociological leanings. Never been to a book club before, but would love to talk to people about these fascinating things - with what little I know and so much I could learn from others about these huge topics.

I like, romance, fantasy teen fiction, psychological fiction and non fiction, thrillers and more, but really to define it outside genres, I love emotional books that will wreck you. That's why my favourite book is As Long As The Lemon Trees Grows, as a young adult with a lot of free time at home, I think I need to join a book club to have some social interaction.

Hello, I enjoy reading mainly non-fiction, but I am looking for new ways to engage my brain by reading a variety of genres and discussing the resultant thoughts that arise! Now in my 50's, and after lifetime of 'non-stuctured' activity, I would like to see what 'joining' has to offer, and what I can hopefully offer it! I live in Twickenham BTW, South West London.

Books and snacks
I'm looking to start a book club in South West London with around five people reading mostly fantasy, romance, thriller, and general fiction. The group will meet to discus the chosen book once a month over a drink or two and some food. Books I've read recently and loved are: Tom Lake, Anastasia, The Only One Left, and Lessons in Chemistry. Some books on my TBR that I'm excited to read are: Tress of the Emerald Sea, Deadly Little Scandals, Rebecca, and The Fox Wife. If you are interested in reading some great books and chatting with friends then I'd love to hear from you!

I'm looking for a book club where I can expand my horizons and where I can meet new people, build friendships and be part of an open-minded community. My favourite genres are: classic fiction, within non-fiction anything around anthropology, sociology, social sciences, feminism, gender studies and mythology and folklore.

Abbey
I love reading and when I find a great book I'm excited to talk about it and share my experience. I mostly enjoy fantasy, romantasy, historical fiction, and thrillers but recently I've been wanting to try new genres and read more general fiction. I would be keen to branch out into some classics as well. I recently moved to the UK and am wanting to meet new people and find some great friends.

Id like to meet 1 to 2 times a month! I am really into reading all types of books but these are definitely my usual favorites, philosophical fiction, non-fiction & fiction, social criticism and psychology. Very broad like I said haha. Looking to make friends and be a queer community

Looking to make new friends as many of mine have had kids/moved away from London. Ideally looking for a monthly/quarterly book club, more interested in classics than contemporary fiction.

I am a young graduate working in Mayfair. I have a love of literature, but being from a stem background I lack a network that shares this passion and cultivates it further. I’d like to join a club to expand my horizon, particularly around the Greats, which are an interest of mine.
