Rabi
Seeking a book club
I’ve recently gotten back into reading after a long break. Lately, I’ve been reading a lot of fantasy books, but I’m open to exploring other genres as well. The only downside is that none of my friends are really into reading, so I don’t have anyone to discuss books with. I’m looking to meet like-minded people who enjoy talking about books and sharing recommendations.

Betsy
Seeking a book club
I’m 22 and live in Poole. My absolute favourite book genres are fantasy and romance but I also love classics and mysteries. I also love special edition books and spend way too much in order to have a pretty bookshelf. I would love some book friends to meet and swap recommendations with!

Dave G
Seeking a book club
I used to be a keen reader but in recent years I have lapsed and spend time scrolling on my IPad. I would love to read more frequently and feel being part of a book club would help to ensure I read at least a book a month!

Tim
Seeking a book club
Tim here. I read quite a bit but often feel I don’t get the most out of the books I read, so am looking to join a group to share ideas and to have a bit of a social. With children left or about to leave home I have more time on my hands! I live in Poole.

Demi
Seeking a book club
Hi, I'm Demi, I'm 31 and always loved reading but haven't had as much time to indulge. I like a lot of different genres but tend to read more fantasy, romantasy, and the occasional spicy romance novels. I only have a small group of friends that don't really read as much or don't read the same books I do. I'm hoping to find some like minded people to chat with about books, perhaps even expand my social circle a little as well!

Joey
Seeking a gaming group
To play in Poole area only! 30yr old family man. I am a veteran DM for D&D (2e, 5e) for many different groups and campaigns for well over 10 years. I have never done one shots before so I'm always in it for the long haul. I have been out of the loop for a few years due to responsibilities at home but have never stopped writing material. I have no venue access so I'm looking to join a table (preferably new) AS A PLAYER to begin with and one day get into DMing homebrew player centered campaigns again. Open to co-DMing and seasonal stuff. I like RP, Dark fantasy/Light grimdark, Deep lore and a Compelling storyline littered with action and drama. I am very newbie friendly and enjoy walking people through everything and creating custom systems and niches for my players. I have done it many, many times! If you have a group of people that want to play but have no DM, I could be convinced to run for you. Please reach out, I don't bite! :D (18+ only please)

Hi there - I'm Anna, I'm 28 years old and I am keen to meet some other readers who love a good mystery novel, a cheeky holiday romance or a little spicy number! I am someone who doesn't have a huge community who likes to read, so looking to meet some people and create a little book club!

Seeking a book club
Hi, I'm Jess! I'm 27. Looking to join a book club (and meet some lovely people along the way!), as I love to read and want to be able to enjoy reading more in-between my shift work. I work as a Nurse, so reading is a great escape for me. My typical go to books are fantasy, dark romance and comedy. Though I often try any type of book! Feel free to reach out and send me a message!

Lydia
Seeking a book club
I'm a 29 year old doctor working in Poole - I'm very keen to be involved in a book club because I love reading (stating the obvious!) and my Mum has been in one for donkeys years, bringing her huge amounts of fun! I read a lot of thrillers, a bit of romance, a fair amount of non-fiction, but I am open to everything really - sometimes it's the books you stumble across by accident that are the best!
