Saz

Looking for a book club where I can make new friends and be introduced to great reads. I’m into thriller, romance and fantasy

Toyin

I live in Newcastle. I love reading, but haven't done so much reading outside academic and work related books. I am an author myself. But I want to get back into reading and think having a group will be helpful. Genres of interest are, christian faith, relationship building, wealth/money, and autobiography. I will like to connect with you if any of your genre aligns with mine.

The Benediction

by Toyin Adesope | Learn more and buy

It provides understanding on the person of Trinity in simple and non-confusing terms. It would be great for anyone who have questions about who the Trinity is, what it means, how it works, etc.

Tânia

I read mostly romances and want to expand my reading to thrillers, horror and anything that will capture my attention. I also like to read biographies and historical books and have chats about it. I would love to find a book club and be able to express my feeling while reading a specific book and hear other perspectives as well.

Rob

My reading is eclectic depending on mood. I like personal life stories (fictional ones); stories about relationships and historic novels. Would like to meet with like minded people to discuss recent reads… I’m 52.

A recent read that’s written in a matter of fact manner but keeps you interested throughout

Divergent

by Veronica Roth | Learn more and buy

This book was a lifeline for me as a youngster and it's still one of my favourite reads. It challenges stereotypes and explores identity in a dystopian setting.

Hilary

I want my group to meet on zoom. I am at present in a book group via zoom but the group is shared zoom and actual meeting and l fi d that the hybrid set up does not work well. My interests are wide and varied but perhaps Scottish history and Latin. I am very elderly and fairly immobile, but fortunately with my wits. I live in Jesmond, Newcastle upon Tyne. I have three adult children none of whom lives in the north east.

by Alice Feeney | Learn more and buy

I could not put it down, read it in under 24h. She's a modern Agatha Cristie if you're a fan, you will absolutely love this book

It's a romance book that I read 38 books ago and I still think of it on a daily basis. it broke me but it was worth it.

Catherine

I’m a total bookworm and book collector (I’m Learning these are two completely different things). I’ve been an avid reader since I was a child and I enjoy a wide range of genre, though crime fiction is my go-to. I’m a bit of an introvert but I’m trying to push myself to meet new people, so I’d love to join a book group or two and meet some like minded people.

Abbey

Looking to expand my book knowledge and new genres. Love reading but find it hard to chose a book

Hi. I am a 33 year old female book addict. I love a range of genres and want to share my passion for books with like minded people. My partner has never read a book in their life so just doesn’t get it 😝 it would be great to meet people who are similarly minded and give any suggestions etc 😊
