Debs

I enjoy crime/ detective fiction, historical stories. Irish women writers and many others. I'm looking for a local group to make friends and expand my reading genres.

Looking for a local book club. Is it correct that the Prudhoe Book Club is for ladies only?

I enjoy reading but go through phases of reading a lot for a while then nothing for a while. So I would like to read more consistently rather than binge reading. I just really enjoy a good story that can maybe inspire me to research on the theme. I am not keen on detective, fantasy or over girlie books. I am not really up on current popular fiction. I have recently revisited books, 'Riddley Walker' by Russell Hoban, which I read again as soon as I finished so that I could analyse it. 'Daughter of Fortune' by Isabel Allende, I enjoy a good picaresque saga. 'The Wasp Factory' by Iain Banks, probably my favourite author, although I can't get into his sci-fi. I would like to discover more current authors who have something to say and then have people to discuss it with, especially if I really enjoyed it and found it unusual. I am 53 and recently moved to Prudhoe and would like to meet new people.

Riddley Walker

Non sci-fi future setting. Culture and language is based on a destroyed, confused and jumbled up distant past. The new language and ideas of the characters soon become almost normal and very plausible. It's interesting to see what Hoban thinks will be remembered and important to a small community.
