I'm 18 and studying English literature a level. I like reading and find researching literature fascinating. I'm social anxious and don't have many friends.

Seeking a book club
I'm in my early 20's and not into the usual scene for my age group, so wanted to try and branch out in other ways. I like both fiction and non-fiction reading, with a special love of dystopian and history books.

Seeking a gaming group
I'm 23 and Autistic, I'm hoping for an in person DnD group relatively local to Colchester or Tendring area. I used to play with a bunch of people at uni but since finishing and coming back home I've struggled to find people to play with. I just really miss the whole experience and I'm hoping to make some new friends along the way.

Seeking a book club
Hello, my name is Matt, in my early 40s, I have recently moved to near Manningtree where I dont know many people and I am trying to experience new things in this all too short life. Looking to reinvigorate my old love of reading which has sadly taken a back seat in recent years to looking at my phone/the Internet. I like to read anything really from non fiction books about historical events such as wars etc to good fiction to autobiographies or anything really. Be great to meet a like minded person who would like to connect (whether in person or online) and discuss books/reading recommendations etc.

Seeking a book club
I do read a lot of books, listen to audiobooks when I can’t physically sit and read.As I do not have anyone to discuss the books feel i thought a group would be a very helpful.It will keep some of my time occupied with things I am passionate about.
