Leiz

Seeking a book club

I'm in my 50s, with a heart full of curiosity and a deep love for reading. Books have been my lifelong companions, and I truly enjoy connecting with others who share the same passion for stories, ideas, and thoughtful conversation. Whether it's fiction, memoirs, or a good mystery, I believe there's always something new to discover between the pages. Outside of books, I’m also a big food lover, whether it's trying new recipes, exploring local eats, or sharing a good meal with friends. I cherish warm, genuine connections and believe that some of the best conversations happen over a great book… or a delicious plate of food!

Looking to join a new book club! Had a fab one in London (we read food themed fiction and memoir and then cooked each other dishes from the book, 10/10) but living in Oxford now and keen to get involved. I read all sorts, particularly enjoy literary fiction, thoughtful sci-fi and some historical stuff, but have been known to read any and all genres

Set in an orphanage island for magical children, this is mix of fantasy and social justice, with a queer love story in the background. This is both funny and tender, in a lovely prose.

Kezia

Seeking a book club

My name is Kezia, I’m 31 and recently moved to Oxford from London. I am a secondary school English teacher, so I’m lucky enough to be able to share my passion for reading with the younger generation. I am really keen to meet likeminded people in Oxford, and a book club is a great way to do this, as I’m an avid reader but also very sociable.

Matan

Seeking a gaming group

Hello, looking to join a TTRPG group. I have been playing TTRPG's for about 5 years, and I am happy to play any system. I love character-driven stories, with strong roleplay, intrigue, and investigation elements. That said, I think fitting in with the group dynamic is the most important part of having a great time. I live in the Kidlington/Woodstock area but am happy to travel to the city centre.
