Seeking a book club
47 and rediscovering the joy of reading after many years away! I'm working my way through a mix of classics and modern fiction and always looking for my next great read. Would love to meet other bookish people, swap recommendations, and hopefully find a good book club or two along the way. 📚

Got into reading beginning of 2026 with the challenge of reading all the Chiltern Publishing classics. Recently branched into modern lit with helpful pointers from AI on what on books I have missed out on over last 30 years!

Matilda
Seeking a book club
Hi, my name is Matilda. I've just moved back to Cornwall after uni. I enjoy walks, crocheting, knitting, running and baking. My favorite authors are Daphne du Maurier, Jane Austen and the Bronte sisters. I love classic literature however I'm not a snob- I will happily read any well written novel with a good plot! I'd also love to join groups to read a more diverse selection of literature- beyond the classica perhaps.

Hi I like to read sci fi, fantasy, horror. But if the story is good i will read anything. I want to meet up with like minded people where we can discuss what we have been reading and hopefully strike up new friendships.

I enjoy reading - latest reads 'when the cranes fly south', 'Orbital', 'Under the Hornbeams'. I would enjoy discussing the books I have read, and would value book recommendations. I was very active until mid-2024' but unhealthy in the following 12 months hence now a little isolated - chatting with others is always a good thing - even if we disagree!

Better read than dead.
Book club
I'm looking to start a monthly meet up in Cornwall, Helston- penzance- Hayle-camborne sort of area. The idea is to read things you may not have have otherwise read ! I'm not a snob so pretty much anything goes within reason, each member gets a go picking the book. Could be fantasy, non fiction, the torah, books on gemstones, graphic novels etc. I will kick things off with 'the five' by Hallie rubenhold. It's about the lives of the five alleged victims of jack the ripper. You should be able to find it fairly easily, and if you want to save some money I think world of books sells them used. if you are interested send me an email!

Seeking a book club
Hi, I'm desperate to join a book club near me, or if there wasn't one , start one! . Terry Pratchett is my favourite author of all time, as well as the seven sisters series. But really I just love reading so I'm always looking for new experiences. I'm currently reading 'unwell women' a non fiction book, and the book I read before that was the 'The nun' by Denis diderot.

I've always loved reading and although I go through phases, I read a lot. I read mostly fiction, and mostly literary fiction, but love trying books I wouldn't otherwise have read- which is why book clubs are so great!
