Emma
Seeking a book club
Hey guys, I’m Emma, I’m 31 and I’m a book girly. I’ve tried before to set up a book club with friends but due to conflicting schedules it’s never worked out and I would love to meet some people to chat all things books with over a coffee! I like romance mainly, sometimes fantasy and reading is my favourite thing to do to unwind! :)

Seeking a book club
I’ve fallen in love with reading again! I set myself a challenge for this year to read at least one a month, but none of my friends are avid readers & don’t feel like I can have a conversation with them about it.

Love a variety of genres, particularly a good thriller or horror balanced out by the odd romantic comedy!
