Our Mission

Our mission is to create a welcoming space where book lovers can come together and yap away about books. We will embrace the perfectly imperfect ones, the spicy ones and celebrate diversity in our monthly picks.

Each month there will be a book selection and a get together at the end of the month to discuss the read (and any other gems you’ve found along the way!) over a coffee or a spicy marg 😉🙌🏽

Think casual, cute, FUN!!!!! Not stale, dry and serious.

How Does This Whole Thing Work?

  • Each month we pick a book (fantasy, spice, strong women… you get it)

  • You read it. Or don’t. It’s honestly fine.

  • We meet up IRL at a local spot, drink wine, and chat about it.

  • Everyone’s welcome. Come solo, bring a mate, just show up

The Dead Husbands Cookbook by Danielle Valentine

She has the recipe for the perfect murder...

Maria Capello is a celebrity chef like no other. A household name with dozens of cookbooks and a weekly television show, not to mention her line of bestselling supermarket sauces. Once just the timid wife of famous chef Damien Capello, she stepped into the spotlight after his mysterious disappearance, an event she's never spoken about publicly... until now.

Why is Maria willing to break her silence? When editor Thea Woods is invited to Maria's remote farmhouse to work on the manuscript of her tell-all memoir, Thea spots an opportunity. She could be the one to finally learn whether the rumours are true. Did Maria kill Damien for his recipes and the legendary 'secret ingredient'? Or is the truth even darker?
