FAQs
- Are payment plans available?
Yes, more than happy to arrange a payment plan for your ticket. To discuss, contact the host Jess through the booking site or message @cosyreadswith.jess on Instagram.
- What do I bring on the day?
We recommend bringing book money, a tote bag/s for the books you purchase on the day and a water bottle. Water will be provided on the bus but it never hurts to have extra.
- Where are the toliets?
Unfortunately Merinda Park Station does not have a public toliet available. We recommend stopping just before you arrive at the station at any of the service stations or fast food places that are just down the road.
During our book crawl, you will be directed to where a toliet is available on each of our individual stops.
