Lynne

Seeking a book club

I like a wide range of genres, if I want a quick read I enjoy crime fiction. I would like to join an evening book club, make friends as relatively new to the area.

Frances

Seeking a book club

I live part of the year in Robin Hood's Bay and part of the year in Sheffield. I read a lot, mainly contemporary fiction - I follow women's writing particularly and I like reading novels that challenge me as well as ones that are just entertaining! I'd love to join a book group in Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay or Scarborough.

Frances recommends:

I Have Some Questions for You  by Rebecca Makkai
I Have Some Questions for You
by Rebecca Makkai | Learn more and buy
It's a crime story as well as a high school story - it's funny but it's also a challenging read that has things to say about gender and #metoo. I was really gripped by it. It's long but I liked that about it!

I’ve mainly read fantasy growing up from Rowling, Tolkien and Terry Prattchet but is I’m getting old I read more non fiction to study and for leisure I’m reading some classic writers like Fyodor Dostoevsky . Looking for a group who likes similar books which I can read with and discuss and dissect

Angelology by Danielle Trussoni
Angelology
by Danielle Trussoni | Learn more and buy
This book combines everything I love; puzzles, mysteries, adventure through the eyes of scholars known as Angelologists. The characters are well developed individuals, and the plot is engaging. It has been a favourite for many years.

I greatly enjoy reading in preference to watching TV and would enjoy talking to others about the books we have read.
