Brisbane Booze & Books

A bookclub for like-minded people who enjoy great food, alcohol and books. It's more "modern" than "classic" reads , because, let's be honest, I certainly had more than my fill of deconstructing Austen in high school. However, I'm talking quality modern; this does not mean Twilight!!! We'll aim to meet once a month, or thereabouts, at a delicious restaurant or quirky bar, and eat, drink and discuss.
