Water Moon

by Samantha Sotto Yambao | Learn more and buy

In some parts it felt a lot like a Studio Ghibli film. The characters, with their own motivations and quirks, gripped me immediately.

Anti-Book Club (Finsbury Park)

Where other book clubs all read the same book, we all read different books! We present our books and then try to find connections between the texts we chose to read this month. Hosted in lovely Space4 in Finsbury Park, we have drinks, nibbles and fascinating people. So come on down to Space4 in Finsbury Park, at 6:30pm on the last Thursday of every month, to talk about the most recent book you read and hear about everyone else's recent reads!

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.

Nibir

I am into Murakami. Recently reading Jhumpa Lahiri and Kairos.

Vivien

My name is Vivien, I've lived in London for 12 years and I always wanted to join a book club but somehow never got around to it... I grew up reading a lot and I have recently found myself getting back into it again thankfully. I have quite a stressful job and reading is a way to escape for me. I am pretty much open to any suggestions and I also have my own. 😁

Looking for a book club for my girlfriend. Studied Latin American history at Uni and works in education. Is passionate about film, running and human rights.

First into action

by Duncan Falconer | Learn more and buy

It is an uncompromising look at his life and experiences in the SBS. For me it is the way he writes it, as I read it, I could see it like a pov film in my minds eye.
