I like to read, but I find myself only reading during the holidays. I would like to change that. I tend to read rom coms as they are easy and I don’t need to think too much. I would love to chat through some books and receive as well as give some recommendations xx

The Unhoneymooners

by Christina Lauren | Buy this book

This book I could not put down and read it in one night! I just love the whole "enemies" to lovers scenario and just feel in love with the characters. It has sparked a love for the authors as well as I have read a couple of their books since The Unhoneymooners since and have loved them also.

I love romance, thrillers, mystery and young adult books! Meet up wise once a month would be nice to just discuss whatever book were reading or even read one together and meet once fortnightly.

Neilson

I am a product specialist for a tech company and a film director for a passion. I love to read fiction as I can escape into a creative world. This also helps my screenwriting because I write all the time for my films. New to the area of Southend-on-Sea. I don't know anyone so I'd love to join this community and meet like minded people.

Selina77

I live a busy life - 2 children and I’m a deputy head. I love to read and need to make more time for myself so I thought I’d combine the two! I don’t often read non-fiction but would be open to it. I like paranormal, crime on occasion, some horror. In fact, as an avid reader, there isn’t much I won’t try! Looking to meet fortnightly, monthly. Whatever suits really. Would prefer local :)

Toby

I mostly read poetry in various formats and genres, but would love to expand in to other types of reading! My most read non-poet authors are William Burroughs and Jack Kerouac. Would love to join a book club or discussion type group, to expand my taste and simply to just find new friends and recommendations!

Ruth

I’m 20 and have just moved back to southend. Looking to make friends! I enjoy reading literary fiction and translated fiction. I also enjoy writing.

Louis

I am a 22 year old who loves reading and would like to make some friends. I love exploring places to read a good book or relaxing at a café having a chat & my current genre I'm into is translated fiction.

Tanita

I’m a 26 year old who’s new to the area, moving away from her hometown. I love solo dates with a book in coffee shops but looking to make some friends who can join me! I’m a sucker for a romance with a little bit of spice😁
