The Crossing Places by Elly Griffiths
The Crossing Places
by Elly Griffiths | Learn more and buy
The first of the Dr Ruth Galloway and Inspector Harry Nelson range of crime fiction books. Full of family drama, forensic archeology, crime solving, romance and more! Set in Norfolk... and so the relatively local connection makes it all the more interesting.

Steve

Seeking a book club

Hello everyone. I began reading fiction again a few years ago, and became hooked on the Inspector Rebus (Ian Rankin) and the Dr Ruth Galloway (Elly Griffiths) series of books. But I really ought to expand my reading, and would love to discuss 'good-reads' with other people. I understand that the Stowmarket Book Club (Stowmarket Library) currently has no vacancies though.

Chloe

Seeking a book club

Hi! I'm Chloe (F25), currently based close to Stowmarket but very able to travel to the likes of Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury, Colchester and Ipswich where needed! I work in a boarding school so my free time can be a little slim (outside of school holidays and half terms that is!), but I would love to expand my social circle and get to know some new people locally! I love quite a few different genres- my hyperfixations at the moment are romantasy, fantasy, historical fiction and anything mythology centred. I also fell down a rabbit hole of feminist and alternative perspective retellings (think the influx of books centred around Lady Macbeth in recent months- very into them). I'm currently making my way through Onyx Storm (third Fourth Wing book) and really enjoying it! I would love to join a book club, or even arrange a meet-up with like minded people every few weeks for a coffee or a bookstore browse. I'm very friendly and more than happy to exchange socials/numbers- reach out if you're interested!

Seeking a book club

I am keen to meet new people who also love reading. I'd love to start maybe a fortnightly/monthly book club where we can have a natter over coffee. I am happy to host at my house or find somewhere local to meet that works for everyone. I'd also love to get various book suggestions and mix up my reading list.

JarGong

Seeking a gaming group

Absolute beginner, looking to primarily play call of cthulhu style games. I like the story telling and group conversation and laughs that come with it, and with dice rolls and checks. Proper D&D looks fun but very full on, call of cthulhu seems simplified in terms of rules which is what i like about that game style. Looking to join and GM for these games. I can host also at my place in Stowmarket. For me the socialising and laughs that come from these games are more important than the strict rules, im laid back in that way. Im 38, male and live in stowmarket. I would be looking to game on friday nights or saturdays.

Looking forward to any recommendations or suggestions you might have! Thank you!

I am a primary school teacher, based in Stowmarket and working in a village near Newmarket. I work in school Wednesday - Friday and would would love to join a book club on either Monday or Tuesday. I adore reading and would love to be able to talk to other readers about our thoughts on what we've read. My husband isn't a big reader, so it would be lovely to have some other readers to chat to!
