Loen

Seeking a book club

I’m 19 and have just moved to the area so I’m hoping to meet some people my age! I’ve loved reading since I was introduced to jacqueline wilson’s books as a kid and although I havent managed to read as much as I wanted throughout my teens, I’m now rediscovering my love for fantasy and anything with a good strong plot. I’m also a part of the lgbtq+ community so if a book has queer characters thats a big plus for me!

Hi, my name is Abbi and I tend to read sci-fi, or dystopic fiction, but also really love thrillers and historical fiction. I struggle with choosing what to read next and would love to join a book club to read new things and discuss with others!

Yasmin

Seeking a gaming group

I'm new to DND- looking for a patient group to show me the ropes. I've been rolling for under 10s (Amazing Tales, homebrew) and dying to play real DND. I have a basic understanding of character creation, I have dice, I have copies of the player and monster manuals, but I have nobody to play with and dont know any DMs! I'm late to the game (in my 30s) but better late than never.

Sarah

Seeking a book club

I'm an enthusiastic reader, almost 60. I like comic romance, especially historical, most historical fiction with a female perspective, and quirky off-beat books like Lessons in Chemistry. All time favourite author has to be Jane Austen. Also happy to read 20th century and older books. The best bit about reading is sharing thoughts on the book and the insights in it that resonate today.

Sarah recommends:

A Terrible Kindness by Jo Browning Wroe
A Terrible Kindness
by Jo Browning Wroe | Learn more and buy
The story unravels in an unusual way which keeps the reader guessing, but also the dramatic heart of it is a story of a known incident from a different perspective, beautifully told.

A.C

Seeking a book club

Early 20's. Always on the look out for new book recommendations! I love most genres, from crime and horror to cozy romance novels. Already a member of a book club in my old town, however now I've moved I'd like to find another group closer to home.

BethLouiza

Seeking a book club

I'm 18, I adore Romantasy, dark romance, anything that I can really use as an escape from reality. I'm wanting to join a book group just to make new friends that have the same interests as me, and to share my love and opinions for some fan favourite novels. I'm a homebody so I don't really enjoy leaving the comfort of my house, so I wouldn't really be meeting up a lot, though I could for the right people. I am excited to join this wonderful community!

David

Seeking a book club

Have recently moved to Frome, and am missing the book club I belonged to at my previous home. We were a group of about 6 who met in one of a few pubs every month or so and read a varied selection of books…because we met rarely we read 2 books per meet, and tried to make one non-fiction and the other fiction from any era or genre. We tried to avoid ā€airport-typeā€ books though!

Ed

Seeking a book club

I enjoy reading a lot of different genres, and lately I've been getting back into fantasy, including epic and urban fantasy. Stand-outs for me are Nettle and Bone and the Nevernight Chronicle. I also read non-fiction from time-to-time; books about films/making-ofs, for example, "Best. Movie. Year. Ever" , local history, folklore, etc. I don't have lots of time right now, but it would be nice to meet for lunchtime coffee in Frome to discuss books and make new friends.

Gemma

Seeking a book club

I’m pretty varied when it comes to genres but right now I love a good romance, particularly any that include fantasy or dystopian setting. Looking for like minded reader/s who like a good natter too - over a coffee or on a walk would be fab.

Janet (Frome)

Seeking a book club

I have always loved reading but work pressures restricted the time available to get into a good book! Since I recently retired I think joining a book club would give me the motivation to read more varied books and share opinions with a group of people with different persoectives I would also enjoy that social connection I enjoy a variety of genres but particularly enjoy literary & historical fiction and autobiographies

Janet (Frome) recommends:

Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver
Demon Copperhead
by Barbara Kingsolver | Learn more and buy
Very intense and thought provoking book. Barbara Kingsolver cleverly updates Charles Dickens classic David Copperfield and her modern social criticism echos the same issues raised by Dickens. Her hard hitting account of the opioid epidemic in the Appalachia and its impact on the main character Damon Fields, nicknamed Demon Copperhead, is often shocking and heart breaking Once I started reading it I couldn’t put it down.
