Rita

Seeking a book club

Hello! I'm back in Reading after 5 years and ready to build my roots here. I love reading all sorts of genres but my favourites are non fiction. I'd like to find a group to keep up on the reading, meet new people and have a space to discuss interesting topics.

Fred

Gaming group

I've never played a TTRPG in person before and would like to give it a try, while I'm probably most familiar with D&D and Blades in the dark, I'd be interested to try something else to expand my horizons. i wouldn't mind being a gm for blades specifically or D&D at a push, so long as people understand that it would be my first time and try to be patient.

TimLaz

Seeking a book club

I’m 28m looking to join a book club in Reading to meet new people and practice reading more critically. I mostly reading speculative fiction but I’m looking to broaden the kinds of things I read while being able to learn why I enjoy some books more than others and understand what makes good writing

TimLaz recommends:

A Little Hatred by Joe Abercrombie
A Little Hatred
by Joe Abercrombie | Learn more and buy
For anyone who like grimdark fantasy, this is a must read! Joe is a master of character and he’s on top form here! It feels very familiar to readers of the First Law while also expanding the world and exploring new themes in an age of industrialisation

Hi, I've been in a bit of a reading rut recently but have been getting back into it over the last year. I love fantasy and science fiction and would really enjoy meeting up with people to discuss. Am working my way through Terry Pratchett's Discworld series atm!

Kai

Seeking a book club

Hiya, I'm very new to reading as a hobby so would love to get to know some people with the same interest and be able to talk about current reads together! My favourite genres so far are horror, crime thrillers and anything a bit dystopian but I'm looking to expand those horizons a little and hopefully make some friends too :)

Seeking a book club

I used to read a lot of books when I was young. But I want to get back into reading! I love crime thrillers, horrors and other fiction. Some of my favourite authors are C.S. Lewis, Jo Nesbo, John Boyne, Markus Zusak and Sydney Sheldon. I also like to read Christian non-fiction books as well. I would love to connect with like minded people and chat about books! Ideally join a book club, make friends and hang out for coffees, walks etc.

Seeking a gaming group

Complete beginner here never played D&D, but I've wanted to give it a go for ages. Based in Emmer Green I'm after a friendly, relaxed group to learn the ropes with, meeting weekly or fortnightly. I'm a parent looking to get out of the house, meet new people and have a bit of fun with the storytelling and roleplay side of things. Around family life, Mon, Tues or Fri evenings (from 7pm) work best for me. Happy to start from scratch alongside other newcomers, or join a patient existing group. 5e or whatever you're playing Drop me a message if there's room at your table.

Off-campus, briar U and campus diaries series
by Elle kennedy | Learn more and buy
It’s fun, flirty and spicy. You can get lost reading and create an emotional connection with each character. There is now an off campus series on prime which really brings the book to life ;)
