Lani (Bridport)

Seeking a gaming group

Hii, I'm Lani, I moved to Bridport roughly a year ago, I'm in my mid to late 20s and I've got a bit of experience playing D&D and I would love to play again. Ideally I would like to play with people near my age but I'm open to a mixed age group, as a good, fun vibe is the most important thing after all ๐Ÿ‘ Doesn't have to be D&D as I am interested in a range of TTRPGs, like Call Of Cthulhu for example. Other games I'd like to play with people are Magic: The Gathering, preferably commander format. I also love social deduction, games like Werewolf or Blood On The Clocktower. Please contact me if interested! โœจ๏ธ

J Anna (Dorchester)

Seeking a book club

I live just outside of Dorchester. I enjoy all sorts of books, but really love quite dark and beautifully written books, and stories with complex characters. My favourite book of all time is The Secret History by Donna Tartt, which I've read over 10 times. I am hoping joining a book club could introduce me to something different. Mostly, though, I'd like to find a like-minded group to share my passion for reading.

I love the series so much, the way the writer makes you think you know what will happen but then it changes last minute to something very unexpected, it keeps you hooked up.

Elenareads (Poole)

Seeking a book club

Would love to meet new people that I can share my reading experience with. In person meet-ups would be great to chat about our recent buddy read, it's a great way of meeting new people and socialising based on our interests. Always wanted to be part of a bookclub. I read almost any genre, mostly horror, sci-fi, fantasy, fiction but anything with a clever concept. 25 y old based in Poole โœจ๐Ÿงš

Butter
by Asako Yuzuki | Learn more and buy
It's 450 pages of slow slice of life, manipulation, feminism and misogyny, romance and the transgressive pleasures of food in a vivid and , sometimes, unsettling way. It is very character driven and It's not focused around figuring out the killings, it's a slow paced character development sequence. The author questions some deep seated Japanese stereotypes, more around women and cooking.
