Butter & Being

Book, Cake & Soul

The first book is ANAM CARA by John O'Donohue. There are multiple copies in Auckland Libraries. To participate in the discussion you will need to read the book before attending.

Come for the cake, stay for the conversation! Join us for a cozy, curious gathering where we dive into books that nourish the soul, spark reflection, and inspire meaningful dialogue. Over delicious slices (and maybe a second helping), we’ll share our thoughts, ideas, and the little sparks these books ignite in our hearts and minds.

Our chats go beyond the page: we explore how these books can enrich our ways of being, deepen our connections—with ourselves, each other, and something bigger than ourselves. Whether you’re after lively discussion, gentle reflection, or just a sweet treat with like-minded souls, this is a space to connect, ponder, and be nourished—inside and out.

Find the stairs and you will find the cake. The space is upstairs, just above the bookstore.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
