Hi, I am a female in my late 20s, looking to join a book club with another soul. We are both social creatures and would love to meet new people. Our interests are varied & we would love the social side of a book club as much as the reading and discussion itself :)

Shannon

Hi! I’m 30 and live just 15 minutes away from Manchester town centre. I’m looking to make some new friends discussing my number one passion: books! I mainly read fantasy, but have recently been expanding out into horrors, thrillers, and sci-fi. Have a wonderful day! :)

The Final Empire

by Brandon Sanderson | Learn more and buy

Every single moment is actin-packed, and every single book in this series has a fantastic twist and heart wrenching moments, the conclusion of this trilogy has really yet to be topped in my eyes! This introduced me to Brandon Sanderson‘s writing and just cemented him as forever fave and immediate auto-buy author for me.

The Forgetting Moon

by Brian Lee Durfee | Learn more and buy

The characters (especially the dog, Beer Mug) are such a wonderful mix of likeable and easily despise-able, the world is vast and well crafted, and the stakes are so high, you have absolutely no clue. What will happen next!

Assassin’s Apprentice

by Robin Hobb | Learn more and buy

Do you want your heart absolutely shattered into a million teeny tiny pieces? If yes, may I introduce you to the amazing Robin Hobb and her poor fictional child; Fitzchivalry Farseer. I love this book so much I submitted my own beaten, loved and annotated copy as part of my Masters dissertation.

Anita

Recently back in the area, and I'd love to find a monthly book club for other bookish folks! Especially 30s/40s, feminist and queer literature and non fiction, ideally somewhere that meets in a pub with readers who want to meet new people!

Deena

Hi I'm Deena, Im 23 and live near Bolton and would love to make some bookish friends or join a book club. I mostly read rom-coms and sometimes fantasy but can be open to other recommendations, there just needs to be banter. I am a worshiper of all academic rivals to lovers books... something about them is just MMMMMH iykyk! I feel it's important to mention that i do boycott certain authors due to their links to zionism or the zionist 'state'. You can read what you want but I won't want to chat about certain books (ACOTAR, Fourth Wing etc.) due to this.

Looking for romance book clubs to join so I've got people to discuss them with

The main character book club

Hello! I am looking to start a Manchester-based book club centered around dark romance, spicy fiction, and all our favorite morally grey characters. I'm looking to connect with fellow readers in the area who love fast-paced plots, high stakes, and good banter, both on the page and over a drink!

Bookscape Books Monton

We have two book clubs in Monton who meet monthly at The Maltdog. It's a lovely group of readers who are always happy to meet like-minded people. The groups are mixed genre clubs. :)

Samantha recommends:

The Burning Truth

by S.T Author | Learn more and buy

It is unusual and not your usual crime thriller. Based in Lancashire and features a female lead aged over 40 with a tragic background story which follows her through the book with an insidiously nail biting thread.

The Burning Truth

by S.T Author | Learn more and buy

This crime thriller is unusual at only about 40,000 words. It's a great Sunday read or holiday read. The main character, Lizzie Holland is in her 40's when she joins the police after a tragedy. This book not only has murder and mystery but also an insidiously nail biting background thread. Highly recommend.

Serial Killer Games

by Kate Posey | Learn more and buy

Funny, lots of plot twists and not as stereotypical as I was expecting. Light-hearted!

Kelly confessed bookaholic

well as my profile name suggests Im a bookaholic and proud! I read everyday I generally use my kindle or an audiobook for convenience but I do love the smell of a new book! If really love a book I have it in all formats (hardback or paperback, Kindle book and Audiobook) I read a variety of genres but mainly Romance in all forms (Dark/Historical/Romcom/Romantasy/Contemporary/RH) None of my friends/family understand my obsession with books I would love to have someone to talk about books with.
