Chaotic Book Club is embracing the chaotic nature of the festive season with our second annual book swap! Hopefully everyone will have a read for the plane ride home, to escape from awkward family gatherings, or to read on the beach!
How it will work:
Everyone brings a copy (new or used!) of a book they love and are willing to part with.
The pitch: Each person takes a turn to give an ‘elevator pitch’ for the book the brought; it could be a summary, a ‘why I liked it’, or a story about how you came across it.
The swap: Everyone randomly draws a number, which will define the order of choosing. Choose which book you want to take home (but don’t get too attached!).
The twist: If someone ahead of you nabbed the book you wanted, you can choose to steal it! The victim gets to choose another book. The only law is that you can’t take home the same book you brought.
Let the chaos and conversation lead the way from there!
We plan to return to our regular programming in January, so please remember to send through book recommendations and ideas on the form/spreadsheet in the description!
We will meet for the book swap at our regular spot at Mezze Bar on Sunday 8th December at 11am. See you there!
