CookhamMac (Maidenhead)

Seeking a book club

I'm looking for a varied group of people in my area who like to read books and then share their comments/experiences. I've self-published a novel fairly recently and enjoyed the experience....and learnt SO much. I want to learn more (from other readers and writers) and enjoy generating and discussing ideas with others. I need to get into the habit of reading more than I do and a fun book club would help that.

Cider with Rosie

The varied and beautifully described experiences of a boy growing up in a small Gloucestershire village in the years immediately following WW1.

Very unusual novel with good characters and plot that unravels in a compelling way.

Carley G (Wokingham)

Seeking a book club

I am 46 year old and have lived in Wokingham for 2 years, I still do not know anyone and would like to meet other people and connect with. I completed a Counselling Psychology Degree in 2023 so I am interested in Psychology, but my lack of enthusiasm for reading holds me back. I used to love reading books but struggle to stick to one now. I found out that I have ADHD so my short term memory is not great and I find forgetting information that I have learnt is easy to do. So I would like to get back into reading and train my brain as well as meeting new people and hoping to make new friends. I am currently lacking in confidence and I am quite shy at first but grow more confident the more I socialise. Thank you

The story of murder in a grammar school told by a great storyteller. I love the plot. The characters and the twists and turns as well as the development of the investigation.

I haven't read recently a good sci fi book. Can you recommend any?

Hello. I'm based in Newbury, Berkshire and have recently got back into reading books. I used to read books all the time growing up, before slowing deviating away from them. I am aiming to read one a month this year and looking to meet/chat to new people. I haven't got an interest in a particular genre, but willing to give anything a try. Love a good murder mystery.
