Seeking a book club
I'm 38 and love reading most things; I mainly enjoy history, but also general non-fiction, travel (Bill Bryson, Michael Palin) and also classic fiction like Jane Austen and Charles Dickens.

I'm an avid reader who loves getting lost in the worlds of fantasy, romance, romantasy, and thrillers—but I'm always open to giving most books a try! I'm looking to connect with like-minded people who enjoy a relaxed book club setting, where we can share our thoughts over a cuppa or a glass of wine without the pressure of intense discussions. For me, reading is all about enjoyment, great stories, and good company!

Looking for a book club locally, ideally in Winchester, to get me back into reading again now that my daughters have left home and gone to uni so I have more time :-)

Seeking a book club
Charity worker, mother of 2, ex-teacher, loves travelling but doesn't get enough opportunity to do so any more! Busy trying to stay on top of taking care of myself and family. Reading is a great pleasure and I enjoy sharing ideas on books read with like-minded people. I moved to Hampshire from Bristol where I was a member of a lively book group and I'd like to find something similar locally. I enjoy historical and dystopian fiction, character-led novels, biographies and a range of nonfiction.

Seeking a book club
I look for books that give the words to experiences that I fail to. I used to almost exclusively read nonfiction on mathematics and computing, but now I almost exclusively read fiction. I would like to make friends to read and talk with :)

Seeking a book club
Hello, I’m thinking about joining a book group as would like to discover new authors and read books I would not usually consider reading. I would enjoy connecting with people who share my interest in reading. I believe a reading group has many benefits as discussing books will help to keep my brain engaged, which may have cognitive benefits! I would enjoy contributing and listening to the viewpoints of others.

Seeking a book club
I like modern literary fiction and the classics. I have recently moved to Winchester from Manchester where I enjoyed being a member of the book group at the Central Library for many years. The discussions were great and I made many friends. I'd like to be a member of a group here, meeting perhaps once a month.
