Alikewise
After Romeo and Juliet last weekend, love is floating around the air in The Reader Organisation office (and, I am led to believe, at Croxteth Fire Station). So it seems rather timely that I came across Alikewise this morning.
Alikewise is a dating website that is based on your book tastes: anything from cooking to climbing to Shakespeare to poetry. In their words, "we think we can find others who would like to talk to you". I haven't tried to find love on it (not sure that my boyfriend would be too happy about that), so I can't vouch for its claim but it may be a bit of fun for any lonely readers out there and if nothing else, you may pick up a good reading recommendation.
