Chapter 25 Book Club Bewertungen 

I'm a bit disappointed we've got the same author within 4 months. I didn't like their writing so I feel a tad cheated that I've got her again. I'm finding it not particularly varied in books choices so I'm looking at alternatives locally.

Having been a member of Chapter 25 since the start of my location’s club I can honestly say it’s one of the best things I’ve done for myself in a very long time. The hosts have been/are marvellous and to be with like minded people to talk about books is wonderful. I have made some genuinely great friendships that I treasure and have read such a variety of books - some I’ve liked, some I’ve loved and some I chose not to finish! Having the opportunity to test such wide genres and styles is really valuable. What a fantastic opportunity for anyone who is interested in books.
The behind the scenes staff have always been super helpful and accommodating, a real bonus to a busy thriving business.

I was a bit nervous about joining a paid book club as I thought the books and discussions would be a bit highbrow. I was hoping to meet new people as I was a bit isolated and lonely after moving up north. However, I couldn’t have been more wrong. The books are an eclectic mix and have challenged me to read new genres and amused me on occasion too. The meet ups themselves are amazing too, amazing because I have met people with a real shared interest and passion for reading. The WhatsApp group also is inspiring as I felt like giving up on one book but was encouraged by those who had finished it to keep going and it turned out to be one of the best books I have read this year. If you are hesitating about joining DON’T!!!!

Complete waste of £40.

It took two months to actually get into the site at this point leaving less than a week to buy and read the book. I’m now seemingly locked out again support is as useful as a chocolate teapot. The subscription has come out for a fourth time meaning I’ve now spent £40 for nothing.

I really enjoy the book club and the opportunity to come together with people and make new friends and be a part of this community. The company are reviewing how we select books as most of the books we have read as a group we haven't necessarily enjoyed.
I would say that there is not much transparency around what the subscription fee goes on. The questions created by the central team are very basic, and I sometimes don't know if they've read the book. The venue is free and I don't know if the host gets paid a good salary or not for her time and efforts.

From the moment I signed up on the website to being welcomed at my first book club meet up, the whole experience felt incredibly friendly and inviting.
Shortly after signing up, I received welcome emails with all the information I needed to attend my first meet up, it was all so easy and straightforward.
When it came to the first meet-up, I was a little anxious, but as soon as I arrived and was welcomed by the host and I quickly felt relaxed.
The whole atmosphere at Chapter 25 is warm and welcoming. It’s simply a shared love of books among a variety of people, all connected by a genuine passion for reading.

I’m so glad I joined and would absolutely encourage others to do the same - you won’t regret it.

I wish I could rate this higher! This book club has been so amazing, the host is amazing the variety is wonderful and helps me get out of my comfort zone and the community is absolutely fantastic. Even the support team are wonderful! Thank you so much for this amazing community that I have the joy of being in

It was my 1st ever chapter 25 event having just joined the paisley group. The hosts & ladies there were all so welcoming. It's a brilliant idea decorating the books although I did get in a mess with the glue, that's me though. There was a raffle as well for gifts. I've recommended these events to friends as well. So happy I came along thank you so much for having me.

I’ve only been a member of Chapter 25 for a few months, but I absolutely love it. Wish I’d joined earlier. It is such a friendly, kind and encouraging group and lovely to spend time with like minded people.
I attended a “Galantines” Event too which was such a lovely evening. Great value for money, lovely activity (decorating a book), lovely friendly people and an evening well spent.

I was lucky enough to be accepted for chapter 25 in December when I saw an opening for Glasgow group. I find the WhatsApp group very active and helpful and also the events plus the monthly book review gatherings are organised and fun. Have met nice people in these meetings who love reading and sharing their ideas.

Fantastic Galentines last night, another wonderful wholesome event full of laughter!

Misleading email about transferring stamps over to the new digital system.

I got it on 26th January at 11:00, and it says I had 7 days to complete the forms but now it says it's too late. It's misleading and now because you lied in the email, I can't transfer my stamps over. 

I joined the bookclub in June 25, and I'm so glad I did! It is a great bookclub where I have met great book lovers like myself, and can talk all thing books!
I very much look forward to our monthly meet ups and have been able to expand my reading genre so much more.
In addition to monthly meet ups, the bonus chapter events online you can join are fabulous, and I have been able to talk to some great people around the country as well. Love the author Q&As! If you looking for a book club i would highly recommend joining Chapter 25 in an area near you!

This is a very friendly, welcoming book club which has created a real little community around it. The books are an interesting variety and lead to plenty of stimulating discussions. The group organiser is lovely and very efficient, and the members are great. It's also a good way to meet people. Recommended! Barbara

I have been to 3 clubs because of the days I've been available and new clubs opening closer to home and all hosts and attendees have been wonderful. Some of the books have been awful and I have had great fun debating their relative merits with others who have loved them and some have been so good I've gifted them to friends. This has got me out of the house, reading books I'd never have considered picking up and is a lovely pause in the month.
I think you'd miss the point if you join a book club to love every book.

Chapter 25 is an amazing book club where you can explore different genres you may not typically read, as well as make new friends who also share the love of reading. The hosts go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable, from your first meeting, to every other. The people you meet are amazing! You get to share your knowledge and love of books with others who appreciate it!

Joining was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Everyone is so friendly, and the extra online events are excellent fun. You get to be a part of a fantastic community, highly recommend!

I can honestly say that joining C25 was one of the best decisions I made last year. I was incredibly nervous at my first meeting, but I shouldn’t have been. The host instantly made me feel welcomed when I arrived, providing name tags and introducing me to a group of members at a table.

Since then I’ve met some amazing people, and made a great new group of friends that I’ve met outside of C25 meets. Being a busy mum of 3, I’ve finally found something that fits into life. It’s a little slice of wellbeing for me, and has given me some of my spark and confidence back. It’s much more than a bookclub to me.

I’ve read genres and books that I would never have otherwise read. And even on the odd occasion where I’ve found I’ve not enjoyed a book, the decisions have always been interesting and given me a different perspective. The meetings are kept interesting at Chapters with different activities. The host tends to mix our tables part way through, which is great as you meet more people (I was initially hesitant at the thought but it’s been the best thing!). She also takes time to sit at each table for a while to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable,

There is also access to a lot on online content / events, though I have taken the opportunity to do these yet.

Mala the book club host does a great job! The meetings are always well organised, Mala has cultivated a warm and inclusive group, ensuring every member, even the quieter ones have an opportunity to share their views.

Great book club as it challenges your reading. Very friendly atmosphere because of the friendly members and lovely host.
