Samantha Cash

My sister (28) just moved to Oxford, and I (31) will be staying with her for almost two months. We're looking for a fun, like-minded group to gather with and discuss our favorite books. Both of us are passionate readers and have enjoyed being part of several book clubs in the past. Our tastes are eclectic—everything from romance and fantasy to hard science, non-fiction, and horror. We’re always down for casual meetups at the pub, but we especially love the idea of themed events!

Tresa of the Emerald Sea

by Brandon Sanderson | Buy this book

This book is just a delight! If I had to give an elevator pitch it would be: the princess Bride, but Buttercup gets to be the rescuer… and also kinda Dr. Who. Synopsis: Tress leaves her peaceful island home to go on a pirate adventure to rescue the love of her life from an evil witch. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lucy

Hi I'm Lucy - I'm in my 30s, and I love to read. Most recent on my read list are: The count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas, The History of the world in six glasses by Tom Standage The Very Secret Society of irregular witches by Sangu Mandanna. I read anything from non-fiction to Classics, art theory to romantasy - love to apply the things I've read in theory to the texts I'm reading. Currently reading: girl online by Joanna Walsh (a manifesto of sorts about the ways women interact with online spaces) and Vanity Fair by Thackeray. Looking to either join and start a book group with people who want to read together, talk about what we're reading, drink some wine and make pals. (non alcoholic beverages are of course available!)

Guns, Germs and Steel

by Jared Diamond | Buy this book

I think it is so simple that particular plants and animals that happened to be in certain places helped civilisation flourish.
