Derek (Nailsea)

Seeking a book club

I am 71 years old, retired male, married with 2 grown up children. We have lived in Backwell for 27 years, I have always read widely until recently, (possibly due to my age), and would like to rekindle my interest in literature. Although I enjoy most genres I have a special interest in crime., historical and science fiction.

Derek recommends:

The Sun Also Rises

by Ernest Hemingway | Learn more and buy

Apart from enjoying the authors style, (crisp, sharp and precise), I think he conjures up the atmosphere of the period and location very effectively. It is the kind of book that allows you to lose yourself in the story and characters so that you don't consciously think about what you are reading you just feel immersed in the plot.

Bmatch (Bath)

Nikki (Weston-super-Mare)

Seeking a book club

Hi! I’ve just moved back to the West Country after 25 years away and I’m looking to make some new friends with shared interests. I tend to read non-fiction but I’m happy to read fiction, too - I’ll give most things a go. I’m a young-minded 51 year old who is very sociable but also respects boundaries. Hoping to find a nice book club to join or meet some people who would like to start one. 😊

Nikki recommends:

Persuasion

by Jane Austen | Learn more and buy

My favourite fiction author and not the usual first recommendation but all her books are glorious. Funny, insightful and intelligently written - very engaging reads. I love classics - but also love more modern writers.
