Dawncarla
Seeking a book club
I used be part of a book club in Malta and miss the social aspects of it and the encouragement it gave me to read more. I'm new to Croydon so it would be nice to meet people and be part of a local book club.

Hi! I'm 26, living in Feltham so can do London or Middlesex and would love to make friends that love to read. Currently really into Gothic Horror, but in general I love horror, thriller, fantasy, romance/romantacy and crime books. Happy to branch out into other genres and love a good recommendation!

One-poetry
Seeking a gaming group
Hey! 23 here and I am looking to be a player but also open to being a DM. I played D&D 5e, Pathfinder 1e, Avatar Legends, and Vampire: The Masquerade V20 and V5. Happy to play any of the systems mentioned or try any new system. I have been getting into acting recently, so I am hoping I would be able to explore different characters and perspectives through those games. I am in central London but happy to travel around the city.

Gallagher03
Seeking a book club
I am a 22-year-old journalist who has moved to London from Glasgow for work and to pursue my masters. I've been here for about six months now and would love to find a good book club to join. I'm a huge fan of Orwell (particularly his lesser-known novels like Coming Up For Air), Irish literature, and Scottish poetry. Please let me know if you have any recommendations!

Seeking a book club
My favourite book is Donna tart - a secret history. I would like to join a book club because I struggle to find and focus on one book so it would be good to have some direction and fun to discuss with people afterwards.

Seeking a book club
In love with reading, not always motivated to do so. I’m trying to get out of my comfort zone this year and mostly the comfort of my couch, too and I’d love to socialise with people while doing that! I’m 29 and around Woodford area :)

Hi, Have played a lot of different systems over the years, from D&D 4th/5th edition to Eclipse Phase. I've decided I'm storytelling over system, whatever dice are being rolled. Looking for: A regular group (happy to share DM duties, or just play), on a weeknight (once a month or more). Ideally in or near Hackney, and I'm able to host as well.
