First Meetup! July: Problematic Summer Romance

### Once Upon Abi Book Club: First Meetup!

July Read: Problematic Summer Romance by Ali Hazelwood

Join us for the very first gathering of Once Upon Abi: Novels & Poetry for the Hopeless Romantic as we dive into the sun-soaked, tension-filled pages of Ali Hazelwood’s newest bestseller, Problematic Summer Romance.

Set in the lush, romantic backdrop of Italy, this story follows Maya Killgore, a 23-year-old still finding her footing in the world, as she becomes increasingly drawn to Conor Harkness, a reserved and magnetic 38-year-old who makes her question everything she thought she knew about age, timing, and love.

💬 Is it love, lust, or just a beautiful mistake?
💬 What happens when something wrong feels so right?

We'll sip drinks, discuss messy feelings, share favorite quotes, and explore what makes an age-gap romance resonate, or raise eyebrows. As always at Abi’s, expect laughter, warmth, maybe a few sighs, and no judgment.
Come for the romance. Stay for the poetry. Leave with a heart full of something sweet.

No need to finish the book to join—just bring your curiosity (and maybe a pen if you’re feeling poetic).
