Seeking a book club

I'm a fan of contemporary fiction and am looking to find a group to chat books with. I follow The Book Club podcast by Goalhanger, they discuss the kinds of books I am interested in.

FictionFan recommends:

Land by Maggie O'Farrell
Land
by Maggie O'Farrell | Learn more and buy
Beautifully written story about an Irish family at the time of the Great Hunger. A character-driven story that manages to tell the history of that period through the lives of the characters, who are unusual and completely engaging.

drbethhh31

Seeking a book club

I am an avid reader who gravitates toward immersive, character driven fiction, particularly fantasy and romance, with a strong preference for richly built worlds, high emotional stakes, and complex, morally grey characters. Reading is something I make time for consistently, not just for escapism but to explore themes of power, identity, relationships, and resilience through storytelling. I would like to join a book club because I value thoughtful discussion, hearing how the same story resonates differently with other readers, and being introduced to new authors or genres I might not otherwise choose. A book club feels like the ideal way to deepen my enjoyment of reading while connecting with others who share a genuine love for books.

Hi, I'm Kenny (38, based in Newport Wales, UK) and looking to join an online D&D group as a player. I’m fairly new to the game and keen to get some playtime under my belt before DMing my own sessions in person with friends. I’m available most weekdays between 6–11pm UK time and can do occasional weekends if free.

Amber

Seeking a book club

hello! I'm not as much of a reader as I would like to be, but trying to get back into it. I am into psychological fiction and detective stories, but happy to read almost anything. Currently working through the Sherlock Holmes books and really enjoying them. Would love to meet and get to know some new people, and join a book club to get me back into books! 24 y/o, based in Newport

The Secret History
by Donna Tart | Learn more and buy
Love anything with a group of misfits, and weird interpersonal relationships. The characters are intentionally unlikeable but not to the point of annoyance. Its quite dark but not written in a way that feels to edgy or over-dramatic. Really great read!
