Samantha

Seeking a book club

Hi, I’m looking to join a book club to expand my social circles and discover books that I may not consider myself. I’m divorced and retired early, the children are at uni so I have time in my hands to try out new things.

Lottery by Patricia Wood
Lottery
by Patricia Wood | Learn more and buy
A great heartfelt story of someone who has a beautiful, kind nature who is often ridiculed and left out by family and people in general and how people change attitudes when money is involved.

I'm Ellora (25F), recently moved to Ipswich for work (but based primarily in Chelmsford) and would love to join a book club near either place (or just meet up with people/start one!).

Hamnet
by Maggie O'Farrell | Learn more and buy
This book is a beautifully heart wrenching story about family, love and loss which really tugs on the heartstrings and has such wonderfully complex characters

Alice

Seeking a book club

Hi my name's Alice and I'm getting back into books after having just finished college. It'd be great to meet some new people who enjoy reading and yapping about books, like I do! I'm open to any genre, but I'm especially into mystery novels, the classics and queer lit. Currently reading too many books to count but, I'm loving 'Madame Bovary'.

annaleonore

Seeking a book club

I am F26 and just moved to Ipswich. I'd love to meet some new people to hang out with and have a chat. I have always enjoyed reading and especially like historical (non)fiction, romance, and contemporary YA. But I am also open to discover new gems.

annaleonore recommends:

Piranesi by Susanna Clarke
Piranesi
by Susanna Clarke | Learn more and buy
I like this book because It really is one of a kind. Basically this guy called Piranesi lives in a house with infinitive corridors. His mission is to catalogue all the different rooms and the things that happen in them. It starts out quite mysterious and has takes really interesting and unexpected turns along the way. It is beautifully written, leans heavily into philosophy and really makes you think. Unfortunately saying much more about the story would spoil that for you - I would recommend to pick up that book knowing as little as possible.
