Seeking a book club

I'd really like to meet new people in Fareham/Gosport area to discuss books and make friends. It's really hard in your 30's. Don't have social media so don't know how to find any book clubs? An internet search brought me here! I like a variety of genres: rom com, sci fi, fantasy, thriller, etc. Always have two on the go: audiobook and something on kindle. Love going to a bookshop and then for a coffee!

Social Creature

by Tara Isabella Burton | Learn more and buy

The characters are deeply flawed but enthralling. The whole plot is tightly woven with great dialogue and although the author tells you the outcome in the opening sentence, every aspect of this novel is surprising and brilliantly executed.

As a lifelong avid reader I am looking to join or start an in person book group to meet likeminded people with a passion for reading and even creative writing. My main literary passions are crime, psychological thrillers, character driven novels and social justice. I also do like to dip into the classics and a smattering of Gothic. I love Sabine Durrant, Liz Nugent, Kate Elizabeth Russell -but I could list forever. Please contact me if you have a group or are interested in joining me to start one!
