Please join us for the April Romance Book Discussion Club! Location is at my apartment in Dupont. Address and details will be provided to attendees closer to the meeting. Also, please update your RSVP by 6pm the day before, if you're unable to come. That will allow people on the waitlist to have enough time to consider coming, as well. Looking forward to discussing romance books with you all! **Information for New Members:** Each month we will vote on a subgenre and trope to guide our reading choices. There will be a voting link shared in the discussion board with 1 week to vote on your top choices. I'll then post the votes for that month and people can share recommendations. These are just for inspiration and as general themes. There is no set book - you're welcome to read whatever you like, although many members find it fun to explore new subgenres or tropes and see what you may like or hate. This is a book club for mood readers :) You're welcome to read whatever you fancy and come discuss it. Hopefully you'll leave with some new recommendations - or books you know are not your cup of tea. Please feel free to post below or message me with any questions.

Bring a book (or a few) you’re ready to pass along, and settle in for a peaceful time of silent reading. We’ll gather around books we’re currently reading, swap thoughts, favorites, and recommendations in an easy, unstructured way. Whether you want to read quietly, listen, or jump into conversation, the afternoon is meant to feel relaxed and welcoming. 📍 Location details will be shared in the WhatsApp Ladies’ group chat closer to the event, in consideration of women’s safety.
