Literary Libations | May Book Club

Join fellow book lovers for Literary Libations, a free monthly book club hosted in the Parlor Room at The Study at Morrison House. Taking place one Wednesday each month, this gathering offers a relaxed and welcoming space to dive into your next read—whether it’s a timeless classic, a trending release, or the latest must-read from BookTok.

Sip on themed cocktails and mocktails inspired by the book of the month, pair them with small plates from The Study’s bar menu, or linger after the discussion to indulge in a seasonal tasting menu.

Literary Libations isn’t a formal, structured discussion—it’s a cozy salon for mingling, exchanging ideas, and diving into new worlds together. Conversation starters and thoughtful prompts will be scattered around the room, but the conversation is all yours to shape.

*SPECIAL DISCOUNT at when attendees mention Literary Libations at checkout!

This classic love story takes place on the De la Garza ranch, as the tyrannical owner, Mama Elena, chops onions at the kitchen table in her final days of pregnancy. While still in her mother's womb, her daughter to be weeps so violently she causes an early labor, and little Tita slips out amid the spices and fixings for noodle soup. This early encounter with food soon becomes a way of life, and Tita grows up to be a master chef, using cooking to express herself and sharing recipes with readers along the way.

Looking to add more books to your TBR list? Bring one of your previous reads or that one book that's been collecting dust on your shelf to swap with a fellow attendee during the event! Participating in the Literary Libations book swap is required, but guests are welcome to exchange with fellow readers if interested!

Info: The first 15 minutes of the book club will be used for guests to get settled, maybe order a cocktail or small plate from the bar, and allow for wiggle room for anyone running late!

Info: Our local host will welcome you and your fellow book lovers to the space. Following an introduction of the book, our host will pose a question or prompt to ignite discussions amongst the group!

Info: There is no formal ending to our Literary Libations book club. Feel free to sip, mingle and discuss for as short or as long as you'd like!
