Seeking a book club

I am 21, my main genre interest currently is fantasy but I do read many genres. I wanna find people around my age who also like reading the same sort of books as me and live in a similar area.

This book is aimed more toward young teens but I personally loved it, it has demons and an academy and some very interesting characters and plots. would definitely recommend!

This book is set at a Mental Health Hospital and the main character is sent there because she has a fear of mirrors/reflection but there is something far more alarming happening in the hospital.

Seeking a book club

I moved to Chartham close to Canterbury around 18 months ago. I love reading and when you find a fantastic book you just want to share your experience with others and so to find a group of people with that same passion would be amazing. I read all kinds of genres and can lose entire days engrossed in a new book, I’d like to meet others who do the same.

Sarah

Seeking a book club

Hi, I'm Sarah and I've recently moved to Canterbury from Germany for my Masters study programme. I found my love of reading quite early as my mum worked in a bookshop. There I also started reading different genres and realised that some books I wouldn't have chosen myself are my favourites, so I'm currently lokling for a book club and of course to meet some nice people.

I am a keen reader, and read quite a variety - some literary fiction and detective fiction. I would love to join the book group as I enjoy discussing books I have read with other people. Look forward to hearing from you. Thanks!

Stompy5x5

Seeking a book club

I'm currently reading Lee Child Killing Floor and definitely plan on reading more of his work. I've also read the Throne of Glass series and am up to Empire if Storms. I do also enjoy non-fiction books especially science related. I'm not a huge bookworm but I do enjoy it in my free time.

Circe by Madeline Miller
Circe

The writing was very enchanting and I just couldn't put it down. It's a story I've never come across in anything else before and it gives a great insight on the Greek Gods.

I am 32 and love to read, I moved to Canterbury a couple of years ago and would love to find some friends in the area. I mainly read Fantasy, Romantasy, Thriller, Monster Romance or Dark Romance but would be open to trying new genres! Outside of reading I love my Cats & Music.

Honestly this was just great.
Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas

This is probably my all time favourite series, I love the small details and how it keeps you on your toes. No matter how many times I reread it, I am always finding new things to love about it!
None Shall Sleep by Ellie Marney

One of my first read of this genre and wow did I pick a good one. This drew me in straight away, and I don't feel like it gets anywhere near enough hype!
