Join us for a series of three Bronte Sisters Tea Parties, tackling one novel while nibbling on tea & cookies.
About this Event

We had Hot Austen Summer, are you ready for Goth Girl Fall with the Bronte sisters? We’ve got the pop-up reading group for you! A reading group is a little more structured than a book club, but way more relaxed than a class.

As we ease our way into the fall, we’re hosting three Bronte Sister Tea Parties, tackling one novel each month while nibbling on tea & cookies, and maybe even breaking out our favorite fancy hats and possibly-haunted lockets. Whether you’re a long-time Bronte fan or you missed these classics in school, our co-leaders Leah and Nicole are excited to lead you in discussion!

We’ll be discussing:

  • Jane Eyre on Sunday, September 21
  • Wuthering Heights on Sunday, October 26
  • The Tenant of Wildfell Hall on Sunday, December 7

All sessions start at tea time, aka 4pm! You can attend just one or two sessions, but you’ll get the most out of attending all three so we can explore the themes common across all three books.

Each session is $10 to cover our tea & nibbles. While buying the book at OTB is not required, we have Penguin Classics editions available in store or online with a 10% discount if you mention “reading group”!
