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:

The Book Thief

by Markus Zusak | Learn more and buy

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.

Rabi

I’ve recently gotten back into reading after a long break. Lately, I’ve been reading a lot of fantasy books, but I’m open to exploring other genres as well. The only downside is that none of my friends are really into reading, so I don’t have anyone to discuss books with. I’m looking to meet like-minded people who enjoy talking about books and sharing recommendations.

A Court of Thorns and Roses

by Sarah J Mass | Learn more and buy

Everything is great about this book series. Like many other people, it got me back into reading. It’s got romance, action, plot twists galore. Couldn’t recommend this book enough!

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!

Logan

Hi I'm 23 and love fantasy mainly but interested in most genres. My favourites are The Hunger Games, Legendborn and Project Hail Mary. Would love to meet more people who are interested in reading books from diverse authors and books with compelling characters or world-building.

DollyDaydream

I'm holly, 20 years old with a young daughter. I've always enjoyed reading and want to find more book recommendations and share my thoughts about them with others

Betsy

I’m 22 and live in Poole. My absolute favourite book genres are fantasy and romance but I also love classics and mysteries. I also love special edition books and spend way too much in order to have a pretty bookshelf. I would love some book friends to meet and swap recommendations with!

Anna24

Hi there - I'm Anna, I'm 28 years old and I am keen to meet some other readers who love a good mystery novel, a cheeky holiday romance or a little spicy number! I am someone who doesn't have a huge community who likes to read, so looking to meet some people and create a little book club!

Hi, I'm Jess! I'm 27. Looking to join a book club (and meet some lovely people along the way!), as I love to read and want to be able to enjoy reading more in-between my shift work. I work as a Nurse, so reading is a great escape for me. My typical go to books are fantasy, dark romance and comedy. Though I often try any type of book! Feel free to reach out and send me a message!
