Is on the Bucketlist to find a really geeky, wine-loving, conversationalist book lover with whom to buddy up ! The idea of it is good at least, so I am interested to hear more stories about it.

hope you find someone soon!
I haven't found someone who likes the same books or genres as me, but one friend of mine will talk about books for ages and she inspired me to start a "Read Anything" book club (read whatever you want and come along to recommend it or rant about it). So I'm sort of getting a book fix :)
I didn't until this summer. I started buddy reading Stephen King with a friend and now we've moved on to other books.

No problem!
I want to start finding people to buddy read with. Closest I have right now is 5 “live” book clubs here in my area that I read along with every month - and manage to make most of the book club meetings.

Both my mum and my best friend love to read, but my mum and I read pretty much the same Genres (I got my love of Biographies from her!) but my best friend loves the super lovey dovey Romance novels, which I'm not really into (I used to though!).
No matter what we are reading, I love talking about books with them and hearing about how much they loved their latest read and hear the emotion in their voice as they talk about them. I've also recently started reserving books for my mum at her local library for her to pick up as a little surprise for her (I don't tell her what they are) and so far, she's loved them all!
