Booksweet events are a great place to stay connected to your community, meet cool new people, and add a little bright spot to your week. Join us for our upcoming events in October!
Keep an eye on our calendar for additional events as we add them!
Book Clubs
We hope to invite a group of people who have read the book (or don’t mind a spoiler) to discuss their thoughts about the book (the plot, the characters, and anything else you want to discuss!). We will bring prompts but invite anyone to pose a question or share their thoughts!
After a fun discussion, the group votes on the next session’s read. Feel free to pitch an on-theme book you’ve enjoyed recently or want to read with the group.
While we will have water and light refreshments (including nut-free and gluten-free options), Booksweet is located in The Courtyard Shops, filled with AMAZING dining options. Food and drinks are totally welcome at the meet-up; don’t feel shy about sipping boba while we chat!
Your Eventbrite RSVP is so helpful to our planning. Hope to see you there!
