Tor

Seeking a book club

I find myself in Devon for a month or two and looking to join a book club of sorts, mainly as a way to meet other people and chat about books, life, etc. I'm not very familiar with the area and not yet found any groups or regular meet ups for strangers like me! Get in touch if you can point me in the right direction : )

Mandy

Seeking a book club

I am a local single lady who still works part-time. I have enjoyed two book groups over many years but unfortunately they no longer meet. I like both fact and fiction books so I'm frequently at the library or visiting charity shops or trying to understand some of the articles in The New Scientist magazines. I love interesting facts and discussing these. I'd also really like to hear and learn from other readers' experiences.
