Book Club and Brunch - June
Details
I'm going to give everyone some more time to read this book, it's a longer read.
The book for this month is The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny by Kiran Desai.
I figured if we read all to the best and recommended books of 2025, we should be all caught up by the end of 2026. The book was long listed for the Booker Prize and was on the NYT best books of 2025 list.
I'm really looking forward to reading it, it should be good.

Hopefully there should be enough time to download or order the book online between now and the end of May. I will try posting the events earlier from now on to allow more time for people to either purchase the book or order it from the library.
We read a variety of books, from non-fiction, fiction, memoir, autobiography, historical fiction and more. We prefer something with a broad appeal, this is a mixed gender all ages group, accessibility is also important, current releases are more widely available either through the library or for purchase.
We meet at a cafe in or around the city, I recommend Ekiben, for great coffee and Japanese foods. https://www.error404.com.au/
