About Event

Come join the August Cozy Book Club as we host another book club and wrap up summer at Willard Beach for a sunset book club on the beach.

​​​​Ticket Cost: $5 - but this is a "pot-luck" style event. Each guest is kindly asked to bring one item to contribute to a big ole BYO sandwich board that we'll share together! We'll have drinks to share.


​​​This Month's Book Club Pick

​​​For August 2025 we will be reading These Summer Storms by Sarah McLean

Set on a storm-soaked private island, it’s a juicy, emotional ride full of family secrets, sharp banter, and slow-burn tension. If you liked Succession and are enjoying the summer essence of The Summer I Turned Pretty, you'll love These Summer Storms.

​How the Sandwich Board Building Will Work

​Each guest is kindly requested to bring an item to add to our BYO sandwich board. You just need to bring one item! We will have a google sheet so people can share what they're bringing.

​​​What To Bring

  • ​​​An item to share with

  • ​A blanket/chair

  • ​​​A water bottle

  • ​​​A warm layer in case it gets cool

​​​What to Expect:

​​​After grabbing some snacks and catching up with friends, we'll dive into a discussion on the book, with guided questions from our host, Karis. Our approach to book club is relaxed - the conversation may flow into pop-culture/current events and we let that happen naturally!

​​​​​​Didn't finish the book? Don't worry!

​​​​​​As long as you're ok with some potential spoilers, we encourage you to still come and join the community. We design our questions in such a way that you can still participate even if you didn't finish the book.

Didn't read the book? While we leave plenty of room for other conversations to flourish, we highly recommend attendance only if you have read at least some of the book. If you didn't read it, we recommend other C&C Events!

​​​Weather

​​​​​​Rain/Back-Up Date will be Thursday, August 28th.

​If we determine the weather will not allow for us to host the event outdoors, we will either cancel or reschedule the event. If the event is canceled guests will receive a refund.

​​​​​Need to cancel?

​​​​​​Please change your status on Luma or notify us on Instagram (@culturedandcozy) or email us at sipandsavorco@gmail.com. There is usually a waitlist to join our book club, so no-shows are just not cool :)!
