Seeking a book club

I'm a 37 year old housewife who enjoys reading fantasy such as dark academia, YA and dark romance. I enjoy Brandon Sanderson's various books including his adult series' and his YA ones, James Pattersons YA books as well as well known books such as Forth Wing. I also enjoy what some would class as children's books with authors such as Darren Shan, Garth Nix and Derek Landy. I enjoy dystopian books. I love exploring new concepts and new characters. I also watch alot of Anime as I feel like they're able to explore for concepts than regular TV does. Dislike biographies, mystery books and adult horror.

Hi, looking to get together with real people face to face to discuss and recommend books to each other. I'm quite open to genre but generally a fan of thriller, espionage, horror, classic and certain fantasy books. I live in north shields and am available during weekdays while my kids are at school.

Seeking a book club

I’m in my 50s and am looking for people who would be interested in getting together once a month or so in a sociable setting for an evening book club. The aim would be to cover thoughtful and well-written classic or modern fiction. (I don’t generally enjoy romance, fantasy, science fiction or crime myself, so I’d want the focus to generally lean away from genre fiction). Ideally the venue would be in North Shields or Tynemouth, but I would consider alternating venues to suit everyone in the North Tyneside area. Any takers?

His Dark Materials: North Light

by Philip Pullman | Learn more and buy

A great first book in a brilliant trilogy, it's amazing to read no matter what age you are. The world building in this series is really well done and the characters are really well developed.

Fourth Wing

It's a great fantasy with interesting characters. There are plans to turn it into a TV series so good to discuss fan casts

Vicki

Seeking a book club

I'm an avid book reader - and like pretty much everything (once an English Lit girly, always an English Lit girly) huge Joan Didion fan and love a great memoir by someone odd, and fiction of almost all genres. I do have a hard time with badly written smut, but devour it all the same. Looking to meet new people, have a chatter box and giggle about books with new pals.

Charlie

Quintessence

This is the first RH I read and it wasn’t only a brilliant introduction to the subject within this genre but also lead me to this amazing author.

How to kill your family

by Bella Mackie | Learn more and buy

It has an addictive plot with a really unlikable main character but you can't help rooting for her as the story draws you in . Can't wait for her next book
