Billie (Rochester)

Seeking a book club

I am a 34 year old woman who loves to read. I like a good mix of genres that include romance, fantasy and thriller—especially if it comes with a really good twist. Give me magic, spooky vibes, chaotic characters, or a surprise ending, and I’m happy. I would love to join a book club, to chat about shocking moments, debate favorite characters, and discover new stories that keep us all flipping pages way too late at night! If there are any book clubs in the Medway town area, then please let me know. Thanks x

ReadingPerson (Canterbury)

Seeking a book club

Hi. I'm 17f and I'm looking for people around my age and I like mystery/fantasy/action/romance books. Nothing super sad and whilst I do like a Romantasy, I'm not a fan of ticktock/smutty books and I love action books with great friendships. I loved 'The night circus' and 'Good Omens' and 'The Witcher' and 'Anne of Green Gables' (my childhood!) to give an overview of my general style.

Cat (Sevenoaks)

Seeking a book club

I really enjoy reading and would love to find a book club around Borough Green that fits around my working schedule.

Cat recommends:

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

by V. E. Schwab | Learn more and buy

It's a great fantasy book, not my usual style but has become my favorite book. I enjoyed the writing itself that makes you feel like you're part of the story. The story itself is very interesting and explores a lot of interesting themes.

Petrus (Canterbury)

Seeking a book club

Interested in English, Dutch, French writing in translation and original language. Originally from the Netherlands and keeping up with its writers, but long enough in the UK to describe myself as bilingual. And having some time in French, let’s add that to the list of interests!

Petrus recommends:

Grand Hotel Europe

by Ilja Pfeijffer | Learn more and buy

Fascinating insight into the decline of the West as it becomes of historic interest to the rest of the world. A great novel about art, Venice, love and crime. It’s all there!

Hope (Sidcup)

Seeking a book club

Love reading romance / fantasy booktok vibes

BookishBonacci (Maidstone)

Seeking a book club

Hi there, I am Victoria, 34 years old living in Aylesford Kent. Married, no children yet, full time job. Reading is my passion, its my escape and its my favourite thing to do. As a 90s kid, it started with Harry Potter, lord of the rings and has turned into a love for pretty much anything. My first love would be Fantasy/ Romanacy (Throne of glass will always be my ride or die) but i do like thrillers and i do want to dive into crime and horror. Nothing is off the table. I enjoy reaching out to indie authors also. I would like to connect and make some friends, its hard to make friends when your older and they say to get friends you need a hobby and outside of the gym and work, reading is all i do. So here i am!
