Saj

Seeking a book club

Hi. I’ve been a reader all my life. I don’t have any specific genres that I enjoy more, just always got a book on the go. I mostly read books that are recommended to me. Books take me to different places, meet different people, learn new phrases and words. The joy of getting into a book and liking or disliking the characters can draw you in completely. Me, I’ve just become a grandmother and feel overwhelmed with love for this little girl. My life is full and happy. However, I’ve aways wanted to join a book club to discuss these great books. So if anyone would like an additional member or would like to form a book club with me, get in touch. Saj

Loved the two worlds/ sliding doors aspect to the story. How one choice can change the shape of our life. What ifs! Great narrative of friendship and relationships and how they form our lives.

Beautifully written about humanity, love and pain. Set in India the main characters initially unrelated destinies cross each others paths. Thoughtful, provoking and will make you experience strong emotions.

I love this book so much, it's like if all the fantasies I grew up reading suddenly had female leads and diverse representation and dragons. The world building is phenomenal, I felt like I lived inside this book and I honestly never wanted to leave.

Seeking a book club

I love reading fantasy but am interested in expanding the genres I read. I enjoy annotating books for discussion but not being in a book club means I don’t get a lot of opportunities to talk about books
