Reading is my favourite pastime and would love to join a local group to share book recommendations and perhaps make some new friends too. I'm 62 and will be retiring next month so will have some time to pursue my hobbies. I live in Lower Compton so would be happy to give a lift to Penny who lives here too

Seeking a book club

I am in my mid 50’s. I have just given up full time work and I am loving the extra free time. Amongst other things I am getting a chance to read more. I love reading, iI can completely lose myself in a book and cannot imagine not having something to read. I love most genres, fiction is my preference but I do like historical non fiction and a good autobiography. I would love to join a book club where I can meet other book lovers and have a good chat about books.

Beautifully describes the landscape, the heat, the emotions experienced by the protagonists and the tension. Keeps you engaged from the first page to the last

Hi, I'm a 39 year old book lover who is new to the area and looking to meet new people. I enjoy multiple genres both fiction and non-fiction (especially history, politics and sci-fi).

Hilary

Seeking a book club

I read mainly by author when I've enjoyed more than two of their books ie McEwan, Julian Barnes. I would enjoy a book club or reading group as an alternative method of deciding on my next read. Also, a lively discussion about the book / author would be a pleasure too.
