David

Hello, my name is David and I'm 23 years old. I am trying to get back into reading, and I'm hoping that joining a book club will give me the motivation to finish more books. I'm open to reading any genre, so I'd love to hear any recommendations. The most recent novel I read was 'The Road' by Cormac McCarthy, which I loved. I also like short stories. One that I read and enjoyed recently was 'Sweat' by Zora Neale Hurston.

I love this book so much, it's like if all the fantasies I grew up reading suddenly had female leads and diverse representation and dragons. The world building is phenomenal, I felt like I lived inside this book and I honestly never wanted to leave.

Saj

Hi. I’ve been a reader all my life. I don’t have any specific genres that I enjoy more, just always got a book on the go. I mostly read books that are recommended to me. Books take me to different places, meet different people, learn new phrases and words. The joy of getting into a book and liking or disliking the characters can draw you in completely. Me, I’ve just become a grandmother and feel overwhelmed with love for this little girl. My life is full and happy. However, I’ve aways wanted to join a book club to discuss these great books. So if anyone would like an additional member or would like to form a book club with me, get in touch. Saj

Loved the two worlds/ sliding doors aspect to the story. How one choice can change the shape of our life. What ifs! Great narrative of friendship and relationships and how they form our lives.

Dave G

I used to be a keen reader but in recent years I have lapsed and spend time scrolling on my IPad. I would love to read more frequently and feel being part of a book club would help to ensure I read at least a book a month!

Demi

Hi, I'm Demi, I'm 31 and always loved reading but haven't had as much time to indulge. I like a lot of different genres but tend to read more fantasy, romantasy, and the occasional spicy romance novels. I only have a small group of friends that don't really read as much or don't read the same books I do. I'm hoping to find some like minded people to chat with about books, perhaps even expand my social circle a little as well!

Demi recommends:

Ever since I read this it has stuck with me. I love the unique spin on the narrator and the story following a little girl displaced to a little town in Germany during the world war. This is one of the few books that made me cry, it was so well written. I actually lost my first paperback and recently spotted it in store again and had to rebuy it for my bookshelf.
