Clare

30 Year old Booktok Girlie based near Rochester, Kent. I've been toying with the idea of starting or joining a book club for some time now. I assumed these usually started with a group of friends but my friends aren't big readers so hasn't really worked out. Would love some help in setting up for Women in their 20s, 30s, 40s etc to enjoy a nice glass of wine and chat about some great new reads. My typical genre would be Romance, Thrillers & a little bit of Fantasy but open to all :) https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/148138770-clare-murphy

Kelly

Hi I'm a single mum of 2 beautiful girls. I suffer with anxiety/depression but love to read connecting with people who also love reading would be great. I feel getting out of home will be really good for me especially relating to something I love to do.

Ami Grace

Hey, would love to make some book friends. 34 and based in Rochester. My favourite type of books are ones where the main character is eccentric and a bit of a loner (don't know if that counts as a genre 🤷). Some of my faves are....We are all completely beside ourselves, Convenience Store Woman, Elinor Oliphant is completely fine, Remains of the day and pretty much any thing by Joanna Cannon.

Hi all! I love reading but struggle to find the time ti read lately. One of my fave things about literature is how it can bring people together and prompt discussions, so I think a book club could be a great idea to get back into reading often. Thanks!

A really great start to the series - This book has it all! Strong female lead, an inner circle of found family, an enemies to lovers style romance, a world to fully immerse yourself into and the ultimate betrayal!!! Perfect for fans of A Court of Thorns and Roses and The Serpent and the Wings of Night – Aren will have you weak at the knees. A 5 star read for me!!!

Jo

Hello, I'm looking to get back into doing things I enjoy and reading is one of them. I'd also enjoy meeting people and building friendships. I work 9-5 in healthcare and my kids are adults now. I have lots of free time! Oh and I'm 50 😀 How does this work? Happy to share emails and arrange something as I can't see an active club for Rochester or am I missing something 🤔
