I'm Lauren! Despite being a numbers girl (maths teacher), I am completely obsessed with reading. I tend to read fantasy but I'll give anything a try.

This book got me back into reading in 2012. I love the world that's created and the twists and turns in the series.

Danielle (New Mills)

Seeking a book club

Lives in New Mills. Reading has always been a solitary hobby but the books I tend to read would be awesome to discuss with other people to see what they think, as I think 2 people can read the same book and come away with completely different things. Currently reading: A Little Life

Vicki (Ilkeston)

Seeking a book club

I love books and love nothing better than snuggling under a blanket and getting lost in a story but would also love to share the books with like minded people. I work from home a lot so getting out the house to meet up would be something I would benefit from but where are all the local book clubs? Favourite genre is psychological thrillers but love some fantasy and dark romance along with contemporary and historical fiction…..if a book cover talks to me I’ll read it

I'm very new to D&D and would like to find a beginner friendly group to join. I had anxiety but now actively managing it and in a sort of self discovery phase and wanting to get into a new hobby. So a group that is very understanding and patient would be appreciated.

ChrisH72 (Chesterfield)

Seeking a book club

Hi. looking for an informal group where I can talk about my love of reading, share recommendations, make friends and generally meet like minded folk. Fave genres include: Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Horror and some autobiographies and biographies but open to others as well.

ChrisH72 recommends:

Rendezvouz With Rama by Arthur C Clarke

When I first read this as a teenager the sense of wonder and something truly alien blew my mind. Sure, characterisation is poor but the scope, scale and mystery of the story is epic.

Emjay30 (Chesterfield)

Seeking a book club

I would love to join a local book club to meet new people and talk about books. I read a wide variety of books and have no specific genre that I favour, from Sci-fi to romance and crime, thrillers and historic novels. Some of my favourites are Where the Crawdads sing, Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine, Dune and of course Jane Austin. I always like to read the book before watching the film too! I cant wait to hear everyone's book recommendations.
