Maidstone Book Club

Book club

6 of us so far! We meet up over coffee or a glass of wine (once a month) swap book recommendations, decide next months book, and discuss this months book. Mostly chatting about our lives, families and what's been going on. Really nice group of people with different age ranges, life situations and hobbies. We all get on really well and laugh a lot. We read crime, thriller, fantasy, and romance, however all are welcome! We don't just sit in our categories, we branch out and give other stuff a go. Feel free to message us!

Jess

Seeking a book club

33 (almost 34 😬) and a book lover since forever. After a lull I’ve been getting back into reading in the last couple of years and I really love anything with romance in it (sorry, simple reader here!) but I also love a good fantasy and sometimes sci-fi novel anything to get me out of the boring mundane world I’ll take it!

Jess recommends:

The crown of oaths and curses  by J.Bree
The crown of oaths and curses
by J.Bree | Learn more and buy
Not a perfect novel by any stretch but I’ve really loved its slow burn nature and how the worlds been built. It’s also a monster in word count so kept me busy for a good couple of weeks which was a nice switch of pace!
