Seeking a book club
I like a variety of books. My favourites are YA, crime and historical, although I like trying new things, which is why I would like to join a book club.

I have just retired from education, and have spent my life in books. I am autistic and hold both a degree and a masters degree in Education, so my experience with books has been steeped in the profession,as well as my role within the subject of English. Being autistic means that retirement brings loss,but the opportu ity to have a personal purpose in book reading for pleasure. I don't think I can make the leap from professional use of books to personal use on my own. I need purpose. A group would give me the purpose to love books again,like I did before I became a teacher and my purpose was to support others to enjoy books and engage with learning this way. Autism makes my book journey an I.portant part of who I am,and now that I am retired I want to be who I am with a group who also love books but have the neurotypical ability to make choices that are not open to me without the support from others. A book club sounds frightening to me because it involves being with people I do not know who may not understand such a fear. It is however my greatest step to loving books for enjoyment. Thank you for allowing me to share who I really am, because it is who I really am that shapes my need to join a book club.

Love books! Have been reading historical fiction for a few years now. First and Second world wars and how the public lived through those and the years in between. Open to trying a new genre and also quite new to Audiobooks.

Pitman Poets book club
Book club
Meets at Pitman Poets Book Club. on Run by Pitman Poets book club Library service Doncaster MBC - Libraries We are a mixed group of eleven people, six men and five women. The Pitman Poets book club is situated in the Concertina Band Club, which us located on Dolcliffe Road, Mexborough. Our group will meet every first Wednesday of the month, starting on January the 6th 2016. 'Yes we are a brand new group.' The meetings will be held in the snug bar of the Concertina band club. 'The Tina' as it is known locally, is a charming little working mens club that is time warped in the 70s. The little club brews it's own beers in house. I also run a spoken word event every third Thursday of the month, entitled 'The Pitman Poets Open Mic. Start time is around 8pm, we are principally a spoken word event, but we do have two or three acoustic guitar payers usually in attendance. We have been running unfunded for two years. Anyway due to the success of our open mic, I decided to create, The Pitman Poet Book Club' And the interest as been such, that it appears we are full. But if you want to pop along to either events, please feel free. At a push we have room for a female, member or maybe two. We meet at: Concertina Band Club, Dolcliffe Road, Mexborough, South Yorkshire, S64 9AZ Accepting new members
