Samantha
Seeking a book club
I’m a keen reader and writer with a love for literature, poetry, and mythology. I enjoy everything from fantasy and gothic fiction to darker, more thought-provoking novels. I’m hoping to find a friendly, welcoming book group where I can discover new authors, share recommendations, have interesting conversations, and, most importantly, make some new friends. It would be lovely to meet like-minded people who enjoy a good book and a good chat, and to have something to look forward to outside of everyday life. I’m happy to explore different genres and would love to be part of a group where everyone feels comfortable sharing their thoughts, even when we disagree about a book!

Hi- I am already a member of a book group in Bournemouth but am also a local author. I'm an award winning playwright and was awarded the MBE in the New Year's honours list. I'm afraid my book is currently only available on Amazon at present so is not showing up on the link provided here.

Ramis
Seeking a book club
Somewhat new to reading so I’m open to genres. Looking to make new friends and chat with others who enjoy reading. I’m a 21 year old dude and I’m interested in making friends around my age and in book clubs for young adults! While I am interested in hearing recommendations for all genres, I’m particularly keen on reading the literary classics that the video game “Limbus Company” derives its main cast from. So far I have read a handful of these and have enjoyed them a lot! Do contact me if you know any Bournemouth-based book clubs or just want to talk books! My Instagram is @coolramis if you’d rather contact me through non-email means.
