Welcome, New Faces!

We’re hosting temporary special book club nights just for NEW MEMBERS. With our usual dinners on pause for a few months, it provides the perfect chance to meet more new members.

Why New Members only? This way, everyone starts on the same page - no insider knowledge, no pressure. It’s also our way of opening the door wider as our regular events are limited to one new member at a time, this gives more of you a chance to join us. And it gives us Hosts the perfect excuse to gather over cocktails and plot next year’s adventures with fresh perspectives.

What to expect: We’ll start with a lighthearted, book-inspired icebreaker (nothing too intense, promise), then let the conversation flow. Bring your thoughts, questions, or just your curiosity - this is your space to connect. And to keep our events enjoyable for everyone, we keep things friendly and free of politics or self-promotion.

A note from your Hosts: We’re a mix of personalities - some of us loud (me), some of us quiet - but all of us here to make sure you feel at home. No pressure, no pretenses, just good books (🤞) and good company. Interested?

*New Year, New… Identity? Happy 2026! We’re ringing in the new year with a story that asks: Why resolve to be better when you could just become someone else? Perfect for those of us who’ve ever daydreamed about a fresh start…though maybe not this extreme, as our protagonist skips the self-help aisle and goes straight for identity theft.*

THIS IS ONE HELL OF A STORY. IT’S JUST NOT HERS TO TELL.

When failed writer June Hayward witnesses her rival Athena Liu die in a freak accident, she sees her opportunity. And takes it.

So what if it means stealing Athena’s final manuscript? So what if it means ‘borrowing’ her identity? And so what if the first lie is only the beginning. Finally, June has the fame she always deserved.

But someone is about to expose her . . .

What happens next is entirely everyone else's fault.
