We had such a great time with our Enchanted Hours event, we've decided to to stay for Spring. All through Spring, every last Wednesday of the month, same time, same place, and hopefully new friends all round.

If you're a Fantasy, Romantasy, or Sci-Fi reader looking for a community of like-minded readers, and an excuse to explore great venues while you're at it, Enchanted Hours is for you.

Enchanted Hours brings SFF readers together mid-week evenings at a local venue.

Your ticket includes a welcome drink and 1.5 hours to catch up on your current read, your next chapter, or that TBR pile that's been staring at you.

You'll have an hour or so to find your little cosy spot, settle into your book and catch up on your current reading.

The last 30-45 minutes will be an optional social session where you can mingle and meet with new friends, share about the book you've brought, or talk about your favourite authors.

No assigned books. No homework. Just you, your book, and good company.
