Hi, would love to be a part of a small group to meet maybe once a month with a glass of wine. I enjoy thought provoking or unsettling books, horrors & thrillers.

I am an avid wargamer, with a lot of experience with Warhammer 40k. I also love more narrative and roleplaying games such as DnD, but I am also willing to try out new systems and just role some dice.

I'm a 24 year-old philosophy PhD student living in Beeston. I've read a lot of philosophy but am somewhat new to fiction. My favourite authors are Kazuo Ishiguro and Ursula K. le Guin. Will probably read anything as long as it's thought-provoking!

Adore a romance of all tropes. Open Door, Closed Door/Fade to Black loved equally. Not afraid of a little spice as long as there is also a story. Love a friends to lovers romance but I am a sucker for Grumpy X Sunshine too. Looking to make friends and discuss some reads as someone who doesn't have hours a day to devote to reading but loves it all the same.
