seeking people for a traditional style book club?
i graduated this year with a BA in English Literature and Creative Writing and since then I’ve really missed having class discussions and seminars on books we read! i’ve tried joining a few book clubs, and without sounding like a book snob, most are just reading spicy romance novels or modern fantasy series which i’m not interested in at alllll. i just don’t find them interesting, nor do i think they offer much depth 😫
at uni we did crime novels, contemporary fiction, romanticism, modernisms, post-modernisms, children’s literature, poetry… to name a few. so i am certainly open to lots of genres! plus recommendations from the group!
and by no means am i an expert, it would just be chill discussions and ideas about the book we read but a bit more than ‘it was good.’ :/ things like a character analysis and themes you’ve picked up on? if you were writing an essay what would you want to write it on and research? has it changed your perspective on anything? was the author reliable? how does it compare to their other works? … anything really
im F21 and live in the uk so in terms of time difference, it'll be most likely for those of us in Europe? in an ideal world i would like it to be in person, but i’m thinking to do a video call style discussion? please only 18+ and comment if interested! 😄
