Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine

by Gail Honeyman | Buy this book

Such a well written book, I loved it so much. Was sad, ocassionaly funny and blunt. Had a bit of a twist I had no way of predicting. Loved it

Malibu Rising

by Taylor Jenkins Reid | Buy this book

I loved this book for many many reasons. One of the main being the very complex yet relatable characters. The novel explores the intricacies of family relationships.

Hi:) I’m a casual reader, early twenties, who enjoys mostly fantasy and romance novels but I’m open to reading anything!

Alice recommends:

A court of Silver Flames

The character development and story arch is written so perfectly! Such a page turner. Well worth a read.

Jessica Williams

I’m currently looking for a monthly book club, I love reading, I believe a book club would push me to read more. I would like to meet with people with a passion for reading. I enjoy any genre.

Newport Bookclub

Absolutely up for a better name but maybe we'd pick it as a group?? Chilled book club where we read a bit of everything (nothing too literary and nothing too trashy) I would love to meet up maybe once a month? As well as being online. I'm 29 but open to anyone of any age joining (I think different perspectives would be amazing!)

Han

I read a little bit of everything, almost always fiction though! I would love to meet people through a book club in my area 💙

Han recommends:

Invention of Wings

by Sue Monk Kidd | Buy this book

It was such an impactful book and it being based on a true story blew my mind!!

Danica

Hi, I'm Danica and I'm looking for a book club to maintain my reading habit. Generally, I enjoy non-fiction, but I'm open to trying other genres as I am a new reader.

Page Turner

I am a prolific reader of fiction. Horror, historical, psychological, crime and suspense rock my boat. The odd comedy and biography make their way into my reading list. I'm not a sci-fi, fantasy or romance kinda gal. I read every day and my favourite inanimate object is my Kindle. When I find a book or an author that I like, I want to talk about it! I'd love to be part of a book club with similar minded people.

Page Turner recommends:

The Housemaid

by Frieda McFadden | Buy this book

There's nothing I like better than finding a great book, unless it's finding an author who has written a series of great books. Frieda McFadden's "The Housemaid" kept me reading into the small hours. She builds suspense with the skill of an architect. She weaves small clues throughout so that the twist, when it comes, is credible and the reader is left open mouthed in a state of total belief. I can't wait to read The Housemaid's Secret. Who needs to sleep, anyway?....
