Sophie (Barnsley)

Seeking a book club

Hi! Iโ€™m Sophie. I moved back from abroad to Barnsley and Iโ€™m looking to join or help start a book club (in person and online) to share all the fun books that I donโ€™t have many people to talk about to in person anymore. Iโ€™m currently finishing Ruthless vows, but love fantasy, romance, thriller, action, and various other genres. I even bought a non-fiction one recently which is a bit out of character for me.

KevinMatthew (Barnsley)

Seeking a book club

41 and just moved to near Barnsley. Used to be an English teacher, now working in an unrelated field, and would like to get to know new people in the area by sharing love of reading. I feel I should be really arcane with what Iโ€™m reading, but I generally like a good middle of the road thriller. Recently Iโ€™ve been working through all the Lee Child and Jo Nesbo books and now on to Tom Clancy, currently reading Rainbow 6. I like a bit of dystopian too and would say 1984 is my favourite/ best book of all time.

Incendiarykg (Doncaster)

Seeking a gaming group

Have a ton of games on my shelf feeling sorry for themselves as they never get any table time. Looking for individuals to address this and have fun learning/playing these games. My current favourites are Obsession, Lost Ruins Of Arnak, Castles Of Burgundy, Merchants Of The Dark Road, Thunder Road. Looking forward to getting into the likes of Wonderlands War, Unconscious Mind, My Father's Work, Stationfall, John Company, Grand Austria Hotel, La Granja to name but a few. It's sad to see them gather dust on my gaming shelves without being enjoyed!
