Lisa

Seeking a book club

Always loved reading. Don’t read as often as I’d like to these days but I still get the “I just want to read all the books” feeling as soon as I walk into a bookshop! :)

Mark

Seeking a book club

I'm a keen reader, who this year is making an effort to read more after a good few years where I barely read anything. I'm a kiwi/aussie who has been married to my English wife for 22 years (hence living in the UK!). I like books of all kinds, historical fiction or fantasy, or crime especially. Would love to meet local people to talk about books, or join a local book group.

Dot

Seeking a book club

I have to Beckenham in 2020 and love the town so much. I'm originally from Poland and spend 16 years in Ireland before I fell in love with an Englishman :) And the rest is the history. I got back to reading last year and wanted to meet more people locally to share the joy of reading.

Dot recommends:

See Jane Die by Erica Spindler

Gripping story that will keep you on the edge of the seat. You might 'See Jane Die' but will not see some of the twist coming.

I’ve always loved reading and my TBR list is very long; however, I’ve been going through a non-reading period for a few months now and I think joining a book club would help me get back into reading.

Beth

Seeking a book club

I am an Australian who moved to the UK 10 years ago with my family. We moved to Beckenham a year ago and I am looking to immerse myself in the community. I enjoy getting lost in books and have been told by work colleagues about the pleasures of being in a book club, so I have decided the timing is right. Kindest Beth Anderson
