What we’re about
Hello person who likes reading and eating!
I've recently moved back to Auckland after 10 years overseas, and am keen to meet some new people, while combining a few of my favourite hobbies (books and brunch).
I started a group just like this one in London when I moved there, and it was such a lovely group that I'm hoping to start something similar here. The group is aimed at women in their 20s/30s who like reading popular fiction/things on the bestseller lists/interesting reads, and who like getting out and trying new restaurants across Auckland.
Essentially, we meet once a month on a Sunday morning for brunch at a different cafe in central(ish) Auckland each time, and discuss the book we've all read (or started to read but haven't finished in time). Each meetup we agree the location and book for a future month.
I try to rotate book genres, but I tend to keep the books short enough that we can get through them in a month, and try to find books that aren't too heavy. I also want to get out and explore more of Auckland and find some new places to eat. I'm always keen to get recommendations for both good books and new brunch spots too!
I keep the spots available capped at about 10-12 people for two reasons. Firstly, finding a table at a restaurant becomes much more difficult if you're a bigger group, and secondly, I hope people can get to know each other more easily in a smaller group.
If this group sounds like something you'd be interested in, we'd love to see you at the next meetup.
Cheers,
Zoe
