angie.k

In love with reading, not always motivated to do so. I’m trying to get out of my comfort zone this year and mostly the comfort of my couch, too and I’d love to socialise with people while doing that! I’m 29 and around Woodford area :)

The feminine rage it emanates? Immaculate. If the handmaids tale and pacific rim had a child, this book would be it. It touches on politics, sensitive subjects and explores our fmc’s point of view on all of these.

Melancholic, nostalgic but calming, very well written book that investigates loss and relationships. Makes you travel in space and time.

Tristan

I love talking about books. How they make me feel, what I think they're trying to say. I like many genres, historical fiction, non-fiction, magical realism etc. I would love to meet perhaps once a month, make friends, share thoughts, maybe drink a glass of wine or two.

JennyCooper027

Hi there, I am Jenny, a 23 year old looking for a book club to join that is social and relaxed. I am based in Southwark so a local one would be even better. I studied English Literature at undergrad but would not consider myself widely read person. I am looking to change this and also find my reading style and genre that I can lose myself in as well as read and discuss along side a lovely bunch of people.

Paul

Looking to read, discuss and expand. Like modern (late 20th century, 21st century) classics, prize winners, not too deep, not too shallow. Not really a fan of sci-fi, fantasy, or non-fiction, though can be persuaded when they are great. Favourite books: Hot Milk by Deborah Levy, Sometimes a Great Notion by Ken Kesey, and Night by Edna O'Brien (all might change tomorrow though).

Paul recommends:
