AimeeB-52

Seeking a book club

I LOVE reading but sometimes I need a push. Having studied literature avidly at school and then at universities I love discussing books and finding hidden themes or new perspectives of classics and well-loved reads that help me fall in love with it all over again. My favourite authors are Wilbur Smith and Garth Nix with Dracula being my go-to favourite book of all time. I would love to find a local book club in Ashford, or if anyone is interested, I used to run one at university so happy to start one up!

The Burning Shore by Wilbur Smith
The Burning Shore
by Wilbur Smith | Learn more and buy
This is a great entry point for the Courtney Series by Wilbur Smith and was the first book I read that made me fall in love with Wilbur Smith's detailed and imaginative writing. Set mainly in Africa you follow the journey of Centaine - a young woman left to survive in the wilderness of Africa after a freak shipping accident during the first world war.

The Things We Leave Unfinished by Rebecca Yarros
The Things We Leave Unfinished
by Rebecca Yarros | Learn more and buy
I never thought that Rebecca Yarros could write anything instead of amazing novels about dragons. However, when I read this historical Romance Novel I was transported into another world, full of young love, possibilities and heartbreak. The book takes place across two time frames, one, is a love story between Scarlett and Jamieson, a WW2 pilot experienced through letters left by the two lovers to be later on discovered by Scarlette's grand-daughter Georgia who strikes an unexpected friendship and romance with Noah, a writer hired to finish a book started by Scarlett. This book had me sobbing for hours as it portrays longing, loss and love so perfectly. Picking up this book will not be regretted.

We’re open to anything from cyberpunk stories to zombie apocalypses to campaigns with long-term drama and mystery, all without the same old dungeons and dragons. We can help you find others who share your interest and want to join you at a game table. Additionally, if you’d like to host a one-time session or an ongoing campaign, get in touch with one of our organizers and we’ll show you how you can get set up. We have lots of upcoming events for all these types of RPGs and can even provide you with all the equipment you need. We provide a positive, diverse environment and we look forward to welcoming you to our community!
