Usually when I read books, I end up not having anyone to share my thoughts on it with. I think it'd be nice to see others' perpectives for once so we can tell eachother what we thought.

We're a couple (F30 & M29) who are really keen to finally experience D&D firsthand. Over the years, we've absorbed a lot of the lore and the general idea of how the game works through podcasts, videos, and just general interest. Now, we're at the point where we're excited to actually sit down and play! Since we're new to playing, we're pretty open to any type of game. We're eager to learn the ropes and experience different styles of play. Whether it's a classic fantasy adventure, something more intrigue-focused, or even something a bit darker, we're up for giving it a go. We're really just looking for a welcoming and patient group to guide us through our first proper D&D experience and help us discover the magic of playing. We're both enthusiastic and ready to immerse ourselves in a new world!

Karen
Seeking a book club
42 years old. Looking to meet new friends and to breakaway from "doom scrolling" and to get back to reading more! Used to read so much more but fallen a bit out of the habit. Love a good thriller, gothic horror, classics, something a bit quirkier, top 100 must reads......all sorts really, apart from chick lit. Live in the Dh1 area. Open to smaller groups, or even 1 to 1 meet up to chat books and life in general, really. Evenings or weekends work for me.

I work full time in a stressful job, reading is the perfect escape and I get engrossed in worlds built between the pages. Recently fallen down a rabbit hole of romantasy.

Seeking a book club
I am totally obsessed with the tudor era, I'm reading : the shardlake series at the moment. But I do read other history non fiction, especially the medieval period. Also non fiction books on these eras and sometimes other periods in all aspects of history. I tend to read several books at a time, it doesn't get confusing, that's just the way I am!

Seeking a book club
I enjoy all types of genres and will read any recommendations given. I’ve read all my life but recently very much got back into reading. I’m looking to read some good books but also the social aspect of a book club, leaving the house, social interaction and potentially making friends (which is very hard to do at the age of 30!) rather than sit with a hot drink, a book and my dog or boyfriend to unload my thoughts and feelings of the book onto.
