When to arrive

Our book club starts at 6:15pm.

Is there a cost to attend?

We do things a little differently here. We wanted something intimate and private for attendees to be their true selves. This means hiring a space to facilitate this. The cost to cover room hire, basic essentials such as tea and coffee and virtually accessible platforms, is covered in the fee. Any funds leftover at the end of the year will be put together to put on a spread for attendees. Running book club like this also means you don't need to purchase a pricey meal out or feel obliged to purchase drinks at a venue, you can keep your purchases to your liking, as low cost and accessible as you like.

We want this to be affordable for all and feel we have something really special and unique to offer.

There are two payment options for attendance.

The annual pay in advance option

Pay in advance and just rock up without the hassle for a whole year

- Attend as many book clubs as you can over 12 months and only pay for 10

- Introductory price that guarantees the same low cost for 12 months

- Motivation to have some 'you time' booked in once a month

- Annual payments also receive a free Under the Covers mug

This is also able to be purchased as a gift. Just reach out to thereadroomau@gmail.com and we will help you make it special.

The casual pay as you go option

Pay as you go, no upfront cost

- Only pay for sessions you are able to attend.

Our book club is a cash free event and will need to be paid for prior to attending. An attendance list will be marked off at the door upon entry.

These options are non-refundable. If you are unable to attend, we are not able to reimburse your attendance fee.

Attendance can be in person or virtual.

For in person attendance, the location is 147 Byng Street. Located at the West Room in Orange, NSW between the library and art gallery.

If you usually attend in person but are unwell and still wish to come, we can dial you in virtually.

Attendees must be over the age of 18.

Book recommendations can be submitted upon paying for your fee by completing the form at checkout.

Additional suggestions may be taken and voted upon over the course of book club sessions.

We will choose books 2 in advance so you have time to organise how you wish to read.

This could be purchasing through the Read Room, listening to an audio book, borrowing your book at the library or on Libby or downloading your book on your Kindle. Read your own way.

The Read Room can bulk order physical copies of the chosen book each month for any attendees if required.

What to bring:

Come in your comfiest, cosiest clothes. No need to dress up, in fact it’s strongly encouraged to wear your trackies or pjs.

Bring a plate of food to share and any drinks you wish to have. Coffee and tea will be provided. Any dietary requirements are the responsibility of the individual attending. Although food will be available, we may not be able to fulfill all dietary needs. Alcohol is permitted but may only be consumed on the premises.

Bring your book/Kindle and notes if taken
Note taking heavily encouraged but not necessary.

Feel free to bring a blanket if desired to keep cosy, although we will have some on hand.
