Join us for our first ever Book Social Club; a relaxed, wholesome morning for book lovers and making new friends!

Every guest will get to unwrap a blind date with a book, handpicked by book lovers (hopefully finding your new favourite read). All books will be sourced locally, and most will be great-condition, second-hand; perfect for you and the planet. We will get chatting over some bookish conversation starters, while sipping on a Teddy's Matcha made by their friendly team.

We are excited to have Fluffë fairy floss and Mateo soda at the event, as well as some other treats from local baker Cocoa and Crumb.

We are huge readers, so cannot wait to launch this new event, chat about books and meet you all!
