Andrew (Oxford)

Seeking a book club

I am an artist, in my early 60s, and have been catching up on some of the great literature that I never read when I was younger. From The Odyssey to Ulysses, plus powerful newer writers such as Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and beautiful classics such as The Great Gatsby. Also occasional non-fiction, political or historical. I would like to find a small group to chew over books such as these, to be introduced to some new ideas……and to have a bit of fun in the process.

Theresa (Oxford)

Seeking a book club

I teach English at a local secondary school and would love the chance to talk books with some grown ups and meet some new people!

S (Witney)

Seeking a book club

I'm a girl in my late 20s that has lived in the area for just over 2 years and still do not know that many people. I love reading, mostly romance or romantasy, but will read other genres from time to time. Hoping to meet some like minded people, and make some friends. - S x

Brianne (Faringdon)

Seeking a book club

Hello! I work with kids and read a lot of YA and middle school fiction. I would love to find a group or a person to read books (fantasy, science fiction, self help, non fiction, mystery/thriller, fiction) and just discuss and talk about it. I would love to meet friends and connect!

Devine Rivals

by Rebecca Ross | Learn more and buy

This is a YA but it is so beautifully written, you wouldn’t know that it was YA. It takes the horrors of war and guides the readers on a journey through hope, and truth. Its just so beautifully written. The chapters start off small but they get longer as you keep reading and I think that is part of its charm as you explore the two perspectives as one. Honestly cant rate this book highly enough.

Emma J (Witney)

Seeking a book club

I am a fan of historical fiction and books on social commentary. I'm not keen on crime, fantasy and/or romance novels ("penny dreadfuls"). I'm a middle-aged feminist, supportive of the exploration of EDI issues, particularly relating to mental health, the menopause, maternal separation and the LGBTQAIP+ community. I am a keen reader but I live on my own so would like the opportunity to engage with others on topics that are important to our society. I am currently reading, "Henry VIII, The Heart & The Crown" by Alison Weir and "The Art of Thinking Clearly" by Rolf Dobelli.

confessions of a forty-something f##k up

by Potter, Alexandra | Learn more and buy

Told from a woman's perspective this is light-hearted, funny and deeply serious, all at the same time. As a 40-something f##k up, I found this extremely relatable. It's a fictional novel but it could just as easily be classed as a self-help book and it really helped my understand that I'm not a f##k up, I'm human and there is no text book for life. A very refreshing and uplifting read.

Jojo (Oxford)

Seeking a book club

Used to belong to an amazing independent book club which totally broadened my genres and books that I would have been ignored. Love fiction but not a fan of science fiction or fantasy. I am an avid reader and miss a local gathering to discuss a chosen book.

Jojo recommends:

A Little Life

by Hanna Yangari Hara | Learn more and buy

An emotional rollercoaster that left me totally wrung out to dry

gastella (Oxford)

OneoftheAnas (Bicester)

Seeking a book club

Avid reader and coffee drinker! Some of my favourite book genres are fiction, fantasy, mystery and anything adventure related. I'm always happy to learn about other genres and find more books to read.. especially if coffee is involved.

OneoftheAnas recommends:

Emma (Wallingford)

Abby (Oxford)

Seeking a book club

I (29) have recently moved to Oxford and looking to join a book club to meet new people and chat about books. I’m trying to set good habits in the New Year and would love to join a book club to help with this. I read a mixture of fiction and non-fiction and am not particularly fussy.

Witney young women's book club (working title!!!) (Witney)

Book club

As a young woman in my 20's living in Witney with a love of reading, I am keen to develop a face-to-face group for young women in their 20's to share favourite reads, discover new genres or authors, and to have a semi-regular space to collaborate over a love of reading!
