The raprture

by Liz Jenson | Learn more and buy

Captive and draws you into the story line, keeps you on the edge of your seat, easily loose track of time reading this book, fantastic in every way.

Robert (Burnley)

Seeking a gaming group

Late 50's. RPG geek and all round fantasy and sci Fi nerd. Looking to put together a regular game in person and at table, after the disruption of COVID and life trauma killed off my previous group. My family play every week, but I dislike remote or online playing, which they thrive on. Or 5e if I'm honest. I run fantasy, mainly d20, cyberpunk, traveller games. We used to play lots of board games too. I can accommodate 5 plus me, with plenty of room.

Hayley (Leyland)

Hi everyone, I'm excited to join this book club! I recently moved to Chorley, so I'm looking forward to meeting new people and making friends here. I'm a huge fan of romantic erotic suspense thrillers, with "Haunting Adeline" and "The Ritual" being some of my favorites. I'm always on the lookout for new recommendations in this genre and would love to hear your suggestions. Looking forward to our discussions and getting to know all of you!

Safia (Accrington)

Seeking a book club

I enjoy reading classics, magical fantasy, sci-fi books, and modern literature. I would like to join a book club to engage with other book enthusiasts and explore different perspectives on the themes and topics. For me, joining a book club is a great way to connect with people who share my interest for reading, and to discover new books that I might not have encountered on my own. I look forward to the having discussions and the sense of community that a book club has.

Safia recommends:

Alice Adventures In Wonderland

by Lewis Carroll | Learn more and buy

I like how it is a nonsensical book that invites the reader to engage in the imaginative world of Wonderland through wordplay and unconventional characters. The timeless appeal of the story lies in its ability to transport readers into a fantastical realm where anything is possible.

AnonCarnforth (Carnforth)

I like chick lit and biographies particularly but open to all genres. Looking to meet monthly.

Rose (Rossendale)

Lover of Victorian and African literature.

Ruth (Ormskirk)

Gatz895 (Blackburn)

Seeking a book club

Keen reader but time starved. Open to exploring new and different literature from a variety of genres. Favourites include: classics, historical fiction, short stories and art books. It would be great to find a group to discuss books with (my last group transitioned to becoming entirely online). Please share if you’ve managed to find a good book group - evenings work best for me :)

Gatz895 recommends:

The Master and Margarita

by Bulgakov | Learn more and buy

Dark magical fiction set in the Soviet Union (but with light overtones) - Satan appears as a professor, enters Moscow and wreaks havoc on the sensibilities of the public. There are allegorical references opposing Soviet ideology. The book has scenes which flash back to Pontius Pilate’s involvement with the death of Christ which links the soviet mayhem into the collective conscience of good and evil, and these sections really add to the drama!

Tamzin :) (Blackburn)

Seeking a book club

Hi! I’m looking for a book club to meet new people who also love reading, and also to step out of my comfort zone and discover new books! I love magical realism, YA and historical fiction.
