STEVE

Read about a book a week

Liz

Bookworm whose reading is rudely interrupted by a busy job. Would love to meet local people to chat about books and hopefully meet some new friends.

Bay Bookclub

For people who like reading and want to meet up from time to time using the book we have all read as a starter to a conversation over a coffee. We don’t take ourselves too seriously and there is no judgement if you start a book and don’t finish it or don’t start it at all!

I’ve always loved reading and would like to meet other people who do! Mum of 3 grown ups and nana to almost 2. Lover of the outdoors too

Mike

I love reading (ok, that’s a touch superfluous…). All genres really. Favourite books - The English Patient, Michael Ondaatje - A Burnt Out Case, Graham Greene - Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, John Le Carre Currently reading Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch I’m looking for a group of people to have some easy, light-hearted fun with.

Katie

I read around one book a week and I'm trying to write my first novel, too. Would love to connect with others in the Torquay area over a mutual love of reading.

Maureen

I am looking to meet people through my love of reading

Dean

I love exploring different worlds whether that is historical fiction, future fantasy or a contemporary novel. Recent titles have included "Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow", "The skeleton key" and "Before your memory fades". Authors that I go back to are Ken Follet, Robert Harris and Ian McEwan. But I love to find new authors, such as my recommendation below.

Dean recommends:

In Ascension

by Martin MacInnes | Buy this book

Quality writing that reminds me of Ian McEwan and Ian Banks. A great story that makes me think and reconsider my perspective.

Linda

To meet new people

Deborah

I love reading and would like to meet other likeminded people

NickyC

I am retired and recently lost my husband so am in quite a lonely place at the moment. I love reading so think that joining a book club would be good for me to meet new people and discuss books we have all read

NickyC recommends:

River God

by Wilbur Smith | Buy this book

I love Wilbur Smith’s series set in Africa and can picture myself there having been to the locations where some of them are set.
