Viv S

Seeking a book club

I'm semi-retired 63 yo lady, living in a rural setting near Selby. I love reading crime, mystery and psychological thrillers (both classic and modern), but I'm open to any genre. I'd be interested in joining a book club in the Selby area, to discuss books of course, but also to meet people.

Blood Orange

Twist after twist, and a genuine OMG moment. This is a real page turner, one you'll find very difficult to put down.

Nova

Seeking a gaming group

Hi! I've wanted to play tabletop D&D for years and finally decided to give it a go. I've played a session of D&D 5e before and have experience with games like Baldur's Gate and the Pathfinder video games, so I know the basics but I'm still learning. I'm looking for a friendly, welcoming group for a long-term campaign with a good mix of roleplay, combat, and fun. I'm LGBTQ+ and LGBTQ+ friendly, and I'm hoping to meet some great people while enjoying some memorable adventures.

Benny

Seeking a book club

My name is Ben, i have just started becoming a lover of books. I enjoy reading crime, thriller, true crime, mystery and phycological type books. Anything really that keeps you in suspense or keeps your mind thinking about things.

Benny recommends:

The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell

I love the way the book keeps you in suspense and has you trying to figure out what is going on as you are reading. It has some good twist along the way, things you do not see coming.

Ryan (M25)

Seeking a gaming group

Hi! I’m based in Selby (UK) and I’m looking to join a D&D group, either online or local. I’m a seafarer and currently ashore for at least the next three months, so I’m very flexible and available when it comes to scheduling. I’ve played a couple of one-shots, but I wouldn’t consider myself a new player. I’ve been interested in D&D for a long time and know the rules well, having spent a lot of time reading the rulesets for fun — especially while at sea when other entertainment options are limited. In terms of playstyle, I enjoy games with a moderate pace where each session feels meaningful and the adventure is clearly moving forward. I especially like thinking through scenarios, problem-solving, and tackling challenges or puzzles, with combat second and roleplay third. That said, I’m very easygoing and happy to adapt to a group’s preferences. I’m mainly looking for a friendly, inclusive group and a good sense of bonding at the table. I’m a passionate player who enjoys putting effort into their character and the game, but I don’t expect or pressure others to play the same way — having fun together is the priority.

Caro

Seeking a book club

Hi, I am Caroline and I own the little coffee house in Selby, I am hoping to set up a book club meeting during the day. I was wondering if anyone would be interested? I have a function room upstairs which holds around 18 people but there isn't a lift I can read but haven't read a book in a long time.

Ellen

Seeking a book club

I’ve just started my masters in English and would love to be able to talk about books with other people. I like a range of books, but especially lighter fantasy and sci-fi (currently obsessed with The Murderbot Diaries), but I love learning new things through non-fiction too. Not a huge fan of romance specific novels but I can appreciate the genre from the outside, especially if it’s queer.
