Hey! I’m 25 years old and you can usually find me cuddled up reading with my cats. I’m looking to meet some new friends with similar interests. Romance is my genre of choice (particularly dark romance).

Pinky (Ashburton)

Seeking a book club

Would love to meet people locally who adore books and reading. I gravitate to non-fiction but also want to get out of my comfort zone! I'd also love to extend my social circle, which has reduced since working mainly from home.

Finding Sanctuary: Monastic Steps for Everyday Life

by Abbot Christopher Jamison | Learn more and buy

I bought this book after stumbling upon a clip of a TV documentary that was shown a few years ago. The author was in charge of the Catholic monastery that had allowed a small group of people to experience life there and he seemed so calm, reassuring and wise. I wasn't at all sure what to expect with this book but it was such a gentle and also practical little read. Not at all what people might expect! I ended up buying his other books, which were also great. You absolutely don't need to be religious in the conventional sense to benefit from it. It's more about finding sanctuary in this tricky modern world. I'm not at all a fan of 'self help' books, and I wouldn't class this as one of those.

Sarah (Honiton)

Seeking a book club

I like reading what I like reading! If I pick something up and it is interesting, I'll read it. No horror, though. Can't be doing with that. I non-fiction and classic fiction, I suppose.

LittleO (Exeter)

Seeking a book club

I’ve always been a fan of epic fantasy novels—right now, I’m finishing The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson, which has been an incredible adventure. That said, I’m keen to diversify the genres I read and would love to hear everyone’s recommendations and opinions on different books. I’m really looking forward to exploring new stories and having some great discussions!
