Jessica

Seeking a book club

Hey, I'm 30 - mum of 2 kids near Cambridge. I enjoy most genres which include thriller, romance or fantasy and have a subscription to fairyloot, illumicrate and Locked Library (as well as some of their sub-genres) which I really need to work through! So if someone wants to team up with me .. that would be great:)

Emma

Seeking a book club

Super fell in love with reading again a couple of years ago after a deep dive into TJR, Colleen Hoover and other books like that. Love a bit of romance, with the odd mystery or mystical (currently reading Court Of Claws) to switch it up

Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency by Douglas Adams
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency

This book and the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy are what I turn to when I need a book to make me smile. It is effortlessly funny and tells a compelling mystery that only gains value on a reread.

Miranda

Seeking a book club

I'm a fantasy romance lover mostly, but I also enjoy the odd mystery, comedy, dystopia and sci-fi. Looking for people to yap with about cool stories and hopefully make some friends along the way!

Miranda recommends:

Animal: The Autobiography of a Female Body by Sara Pascoe
Animal: The Autobiography of a Female Body
by Sara Pascoe | Learn more and buy
This book is nothing like my usual genres, it's non-fiction and talks about evolution. BUT it is the only book I will recommend to 100% of the people I meet. Comedian Sara Pascoe talks through her experiences as a woman wanting to understand the evolution of our relationships, both with others and ourselves. It's hilarious and I actually learned so much without even realising it. Everyone should read this book as it gives such a raw and unfiltered look into sex, relationships, our bodies and how and why these have evolved over time. Everyone should read this book.

Noah

Seeking a gaming group

I've been watching TTRPG shows for a number of years and always thought to try out a game one-day but never took the leap. I understand watching and playing d&d are two different things but I'm willing to learn and adapt and just have fun. I take inspiration from Dimensions 20s style of campaign and favour story based aspects of the game over combat. I have run a very poor excuse of a d&d game with my mum her partner and my ex. It wasn't the best but they all seemed to enjoy the chaos.

If we were villians
by M. L. Rio | Learn more and buy
It's a incredibly intricate dark academia thriller, each time you read it you notice more hints to the the big question. Why is Oliver in prison? So, gripping
