Book Lover's Tea Party - October

Welcome to our October Book Lovers' Afternoon Tea event hosted by myself (Laura Maginess) and my book club partner in crime and celebrated author Claire Duffy - aka the Jackie Collins of Shawlands.

Sponsored by Renata Cook, host of the Wealth Magnetism podcast, the Book Lovers' Tea Party is all about friendship, connection, and a shared love of fiction.

You don’t need to have read anything in particular to attend—this isn’t your typical book club event. Instead, it’s a relaxed and welcoming gathering where we’ll be joined by a panel of lovely authors (to be announced soon!) for a fun and inspiring chat.

You'll also have the chance to share your latest favourite reads and discover new ones, all while enjoying a cuppa, cake and some good company. Whether you're an avid reader or just love a good natter about books, this event is for you.

The Plan

Date: 5th October 2025

Time: 12 - 4pm

Location: The Corinthian

The Panel

Hosted by Claire Duffy, this section of the day includes chat from an array of amazing authors and enables you the opportunity to ask them anything too!

What to expect -

⚡️ a glass of fizz or mocktail on arrival to wet the whistles for all the chat.

⚡️ a delicious afternoon tea served on round tables, ideal for conversation. We will have a table plan created in advance so solo bookers and members (who make up the bulk of our bookings) can sit together and connect.

⚡️A Q&A with authors

⚡️Questions shared with each table to encourage discussion on your fave books

⚡️The dusty book exchange- attendees will be invited to bring any books gathering dust on their bookshelves to swap

Who can attend

This event is open to all members and like-minded ladies who have a shared love of reading, chatting and cake!
