I'm in my 20's and would love to find like minded people to discuss books with. In the past year I have gotten back my love for reading. I particularly love romance, dark romance, thriller, horror, crime, history specifically war fiction, medical and some niche books written by podcast hosts. It would be nice to have people to talk to after reading something to review it together and gossip about favourite parts and most disliked characters or plots.

Hello! I'm a girl in my 20s who has recently moved from Australia to Southampton. I'm looking to join a book club and meet like minded people who are up for a chat about books, films, music and more. I mostly read romance, thrillers and contemporary fiction but I'm open to anything :)

31yr (F) currently living between Southampton and Portsmouth (Whiteley). Over the past few months I have got back into reading. I enjoy romance, romantasy, fantasy, thriller and literary fiction and willing to try new recommendations and expand my horizons! I have a never ending TBR which I probably never get through so would like to meet new people who also have a love for reading!

Hi! I am 27 & have just moved to the Southampton area and am looking for like-minded people who love a good book! I love fiction and will read almost any subgenre - fantasy, historical, sci-fi you name it! Ultimately I just love a book that will move me - the best books make me laugh, cry & all the emotions in between. Would love to meet new friends who also share my passion for reading.

Sign in to contactShirley
I'd like to meet up with other readers reasonably locally. My passion is social justice so I appreciate any novel tackling these issues e.g. The Women by Kristin Hannah. But also love reading crime and psychological thrillers. More commercial than literary. Favourite authors Lianne Moriarty, Clare Macintosh, Robert Galbraith Strike series, Elly Griffiths Ruth Galloway series. I'm also a writer and run a writing group in Dibden Purlieu.

I’m Lauren, in my 30s. I’m a mum of two and ex primary school teacher. I love reading and love having more time for it now that I’m not teaching and my kids are getting older. I don’t have a favourite genre - but I’m reading a lot of self-help/therapeutic literature at the moment. Would be great to join/start a book club…
