Book Speed Friending July 2026

Love books? Looking for your next great read? Want to meet fellow readers without having to read the same book first?
Join us for Book Speed Friending, a fun 30mins where books do the talking.
Bring along a favourite book and get ready to share it with others. You'll have 60 seconds to convince someone why they should read it before the bell rings, they then pitch to you and then the bell rings again it's time to meet your next fellow book lover.
Discover new authors, swap recommendations, and hear about books you might never have picked up otherwise.
No assigned reading. No homework. No pressure. Just books, conversation, and a room full of people who love getting lost in a good story.
After Book Speed Friending, you're welcome to stay for Silent Pages: Read, Write & Create. Bring a book, journal, craft project, study materials, or whatever creative pursuit you're currently working on, and enjoy an hour of focused quiet in the company of others. You will need to book this separately: https://events.humanitix.com/silent-pages-a-shared-reading-experience-2026
