Hi! I'm in my mid twenties and moved to Stroud about a year ago. Looking to make some friends over books. I love fantasy and I've read every Sarah J Maas book, working my way through Brandon Sanderson. Would love any recs!

Will
Gaming group
I'm looking for a DM or new players who'd be interested in playing a DnD campaign over discord, we're all new to the game but eager to get a routine going with it, probably once a week on a weekday evening. There's 3 of us currently all in our mid 20's, one of whom is willing to DM if needed (no prior experience). We're considering Lost Mine of Phandelver as people say it's beginner friendly, but open to suggestions. My discord is rookie.tv

I am in my early twenties and want to get back in to reading and make it a consistent habit while meeting new people. I like mainly fantasy and sci fi but have dabbled in other genres and am willing to try anything.

I’m in my late twenties and have always been a reader but have recently had a very long reading slump. Hoping to get back into a pastime I used to enjoy so well!

Hey hey 👋 I’m Tom, 42M based near Stroud. I’m interested in DnD and Warhammer, and whilst I’m up to speed on lore and am interested in all the world building, I’m a noob at actually playing, so keen to learn the ropes with some games/campaigns! Also a big video game player, so always up for some online play.

Hi, am 26 recently moved to Stonehouse with my girlfriend. Would be cool to make a group chat / discord for people around Stonehouse / Stroud to get some game nights going, let me know if interested in joining something like that. I'm a beginner at D&D, played a few one-shots but haven't been able to get a routine going with it. Enjoy strategy TTG's and love some Poker. Also would be cool to find some peeps to jam with as well, rock n roll / punk sort of thing

Seeking a gaming group
Hey guys, 27 y old Dnd 5e player here. Me and my husband are looking for people to play with hopefully local but we are open to Discord & DndBeyond as well. We’ve played for a little over 3 years now (on and off) our group has separated due to break ups and job changes so it’d be lovely to play. I dont mind being the DM if you don’t have one. I have ran my own homebrew before. But also open to playing any characters we just want people who will commit and be consistent. We can host sometimes too! Live 10 mins away from Stroud. Give me a message if you’d like to meet up!

I run a French book club in Stroud. I mostly read fiction and recently started Leila Slimani's The Country of Others, which I cannot put down. Other books/authors I've enjoyed in the past few months: Feral by George Monbiot; Françoise Sagan, Anita Brookner, Bernardine Evaristo, and anything by Claire Keegan.

Stroud French Book Club/ Le Club de Lecture
Book club
We are a friendly and welcoming group based in Stroud. We meet once a month at the Amberley Inn, and it is free to attend. We read -and discuss- books in French, discovering together francophone authors and novels from around the world (mostly modern literature though we will read classics too and maybe even non-fiction!). Every month we read a different book and meet over coffee for an hour and a half. Details of the meets are listed here: www.frenchcentral.co.uk and you can also contact me at [email protected]. If you are interested in joining us, we'd love to hear from you! :) Steph
