Luke

Seeking a book club

I’m 26 and recently moved from England to Belfast in October. I’ve been wanting to read more books for a long, long while but never really found the motivation. I’m hoping that finding a group or likeminded individual to discuss the books with will help give me the boost I need to delve in. Currently looking to read Play to live or Labyrinth of Reflections. Otherwise any fantasy/sci-fi books anyone can recommend.

Luke recommends:

Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas

Patrick

Seeking a book club

I just moved to Belfast and am looking to meet new people. I am originally from the United States and lived in The Netherlands for the past 4 years. I mostly read Sci-Fi and Fantasy books. Some of my favorites are The Dispossessed by Ursula K Le Guin, Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir, Foundation and Robots series by Isaac Asimov, Realm of the Elderlings by Robin Hobb, The Dragonbone Chair by Tad Williams. I'm sure I'm forgetting some.

Patrick recommends:

Doomsday Book by Connie Willis

It is an interesting time travel book that explores how humans respond to pandemics/disease in different time periods. The sequel, To Say Nothing of the Dog, is more light hearted and equally fun.
