Ulat

Hi! I am in Newcastle upon Tyne and I love reading murder mysteries/crimes, "easy" reads and non-fiction. I am looking for bookclubs that are active in the evenings over the weekend. :)

Living a thousand Lives

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 😊

Heather

Hey everyone! My partner bought me a kindle for Christmas and I’m just getting back into reading. Super excited. I’m quite busy I’m a student nurse and mum of 4 so don’t get to read as often as I’d like so I would love some ideas!! I love a psychological thriller/ crime book I’ve recently read Killing floor by Lee child. However my taste in books is quite vast my fav book of all time is Jane Eyre.

Teddy24

I'm moving to Newcastle with my wife at the end of the month - we're moving all the way from Southampton! I don't know anyone in Newcastle, apart from my grandparents and I'd really like to meet some new people! I love reading, both books and graphic novels. I like a whole variety of genres and am open to trying new things!

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.

Beth

Hi, I’m Beth, an 25 year old reading enthusiast and I read a variety of genres. I’d say my favourites are fantasy, romance and thriller. I’m looking for a monthly book club to join!

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.

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.

Maddie

Hi I’m Maddie! I recently got back into reading a couple of years ago and would love to meet people that I can share recommendations with. My favourite genres are fantasy and thriller but I’m more than happy to give anything a go!

Beautiful imagery and you really root for the characters!

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.

Toyin recommends:

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.
