Blonde Roots

by Bernardine Evaristo | Buy this book

Everything ! It’s a cross of so many novels ! It’s about the transatlantic slave trade but reversed .. The Africans are the masters , and The Europeans are their slaves .It’s an ingenious , thought provoking read .

Jallal

I binge read books I like, especially page turners. My favourite genres are historical fiction, fantasy, romance and politics. The sweet spot is all of the above mixed in one. Strangely I dislike Non-fiction like I'm allergic to them. I'm in mid 20s and teaching. Would love to meet other readers locally and looking to find a good club!

Natasha

Hello! I am looking to rediscover my love of books again, expand my reading horizons and hopefully make some friends along the way. I'm 38 and based in Teddington.

Bookreader13!

Hi, I am 22 years old and I have loved reading my whole life. I love historical fiction especially from a feminist perspective. Would love to meet up with other readers to talk and expand my reading list

Pip

I used to have a book club with friends years ago which was fun and we’d meet once a month at a restaurant and chat about the book and then drink wine, have some food and some laughs. Sadly, they’ve all moved away so I’m looking for another group of book lovers (aged 25-50) to have fun with. I’m in Twickenham

Womens fiction, literary fiction, thrillers, some YA, mystery, cosy mysteries. Really enjoying netgalley - have lots of books to read.

Blood Over Bright Haven

by ML Wang | Buy this book

Very clever, dark academia, magic, friendship, bravery, betrayal. A very dark, dark night of the soul.

The Master Jeweller

by Weina Dai Randel | Buy this book

Its about ambition to find oneself. Kindness, loyalty, revenge. The dark night is absolutely brutal. Very engaging and lots of detail about the world of luxury jewellery making. Very engaging story and characters.

Hell House

by Richard Matheson | Buy this book

Extremely dark and fast paced. Interesting array of characters. 1970s vibe. Raises some very interesting questions about spirits, ghosts, energy, spirituality.

The Wedding People

by Alison Espach | Buy this book

This one is different for me. The dialogue is on point. The setting is interesting, random wedding crasher (sort of). Smart, sympathetic. CW - so please do check out details before buying.
