Carol
Seeking a book club
I have just moved to Kendal after many years down south. I love reading and was a member of a book group for nearly 20 years where I made lifelong friends and explored different genres. I would like to meet up with other keen readers.

Karen
Seeking a book club
I enjoy most genres but when Im tired I prefer non fiction. I love Jane Austen, and historical novels. Just returned to UK after 20+ years in Australia so trying make connections. At the moment in an Air Bnb until we find our home - not necessarily in this area. Grew up on a farm and love all animals. Brought our 2 cats with us and they love to sit with me while I read.
