Romi
Hi! I’m Romi – I teach Spanish and English and love all things language, literature, and philosophy. Big fan of short, powerful stories (Hemingway, Carver, Borges). I moved to Manchester three years ago, but with lots of back and forth, I’m only just settling in — and still don’t know many people here. Would love a literature meet-up or book club!

Yvonne
I want an excuse to read a book and share that experience with someone else. We go for meals and go to the cinema them chat after or during that experience. I want to do that with people about books. I'm curious, chatty and want to develop a social life or friendships starting with a book. Ideally, I'm keen to explore the experiences of black people, black women but I'll grow from there.

Hello! My name is Chloe, I'm 28- I've just spent 6 months living at home after living in London for 4 years and now I'm making the move to Manchester as I just accepted a new job there. This year, I got back into reading and I love it! I've read 32 books so far this year but want to expand the genres I read and would love to connect to like-minded people who also love reading. My current favourite genres would be: thrillers, mythology-based fiction, fantasy and historical fiction but I'm looking to expand this! I would love to join a small, cosy book club in Manchester or in the surrounding areas!

Sign in to contactSam
I've always loved reading since I was a child, namely every genre! I'm 23 now and have become pretty reserved to only reading psychological thrillers now, they're my fave genre. I've given other genres a go but can never seem to get into the story. I'd love to go out and socialise with others via a book club, I really enjoy meeting new people!

I read a broad range of genres but crime and mystery are probably my favourites. I love to talk about books and am hoping to meet new people in Manchester central and south.
