Fiona

I enjoy reading but only know a couple of people who read in earnest. I enjoy discussing books and have recently started reading more books outside of my norm which is fantasy. 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.

Hi, I have been pondering for some time to join a book club but I am not sure what is on offer in the local area. Looking at Wanstead, Gants Hills Woodford areas. I read a variety of books, especially those that make me giggle a bit. Ruby Wax is one of my favourite authors, but I also like crime novels, mystery and travel stories. I am 46 years old. Many thanks for reading this profile and your suggestions.
