Wolflover (York)

Seeking a book club

I'd love to find a book group in York to read and chat about all things sci-fi and fantasy! Fav authors include Adrian Tchaikovsky, Scott Lynch and Michelle Paver, and the humour of the HTTYD books makes me cackle to this day

The midnight library

by Matt Haig | Learn more and buy

It lives out the fantasy of what if? A world where you can live out all your what if moments and understand that your life is what it is because of the choices you make and that they are made for a reason.

Bleak-House (Sowerby)

Seeking a book club

Not into historical stuff but otherwise open. Repurposed (not retired) and keen to get back into reading now not working. Never been in a reading group before.

Bleak-House recommends:

Keeper of Stories

by Xx | Learn more and buy

Keeps you interested and is a story within a story - references a historical true story which I bought the book of but not read.

This book offers a really varied exploration of different "underland" places, featuring different geographies, geologies and anecdotal reflections from Macfarlane.

Debbie (Pickering)

Seeking a book club

Hi I have recently moved to Pickering and would love to meet some new people. I enjoy reading a mixture of psychological thrillers and easy to read fiction. I would enjoy being part of a book club to introduce me to reading different books, books I wouldn't necessarily choose myself. I look forward to hearing from you

Debbie recommends:

Ragdoll

by Daniel Cole | Learn more and buy

Thrillingnpschological thriller, the Starr if a trilogy. Very well written and despite the nature of the book, Daniel writes with a lot of humour. The trilogy is fantastic and keeps you guessing throughout.

Phil M (Harrogate)

Seeking a book club

Retired teacher with eclectic reading tastes keen on walking, reading and Yorkshire. Last three books I read were Demon Copperhead by B. Kingsolver, How they broke Britain by J.O'Brien and Escape Artist by J. Freedland. Keep adding to my reading Bucket List to guarantee immortality. Always looking for book recommendations.

Phil M recommends:

The Trees

by Percival Everett | Learn more and buy

Like any great satire this book is side splittingly funny and terrifyingly sombre. Set in the Deep South of USA it is essentially a whodunit with the murders occurring with cartoon like regularity. I have told so many about this book and am looking for more Everett - the guy's a genius!

Kristina (Skipton)

Seeking a book club

Hi, I am a mother to 4 sons, two of who are fully grown and left home, and two teenagers who are growing up too fast for my liking, that being said, I have a lot more time on my hands, so I’m starting to revisit all the things I love doing and haven’t always had the time for, and reading is one of them. I have always loved the idea of book groups, so here I am. Looking forward to joining!?!

Sam Swales Snowden (York)

I am a long time reader, my favourite go to hobby and even when I’m not reading a lot it’s always a bit before I go to bed ! I read everything fiction, classics, contemporary, memoirs, politics! Would like to meet others to discuss and get inspiration for the next read.

Angelology

by Danielle Trussoni | Learn more and buy

This book combines everything I love; puzzles, mysteries, adventure through the eyes of scholars known as Angelologists. The characters are well developed individuals, and the plot is engaging. It has been a favourite for many years.

SallyC (Helmsley)

Seeking a book club

I like literary fiction, historical fiction and thrillers.

Sally (Selby)

Seeking a book club

I am interested in discussing a range of fiction with other readers. I often choose prize winning novels or long listed novels when not sure what to choose. It would be good to meet others with the common interest of reading fiction.

BookloverJo (Skipton)

Seeking a book club

Hi, I’ve always loved reading but now find it difficult to find a book that is “unputdownable”. Would welcome recommendations and an opportunity to meet new people/make new friends. No favourite genre although I don’t enjoy fantasy, and count Maggie O’Farrell and Mary Wesley among my favourite authors.
