RSVP Readers

A book club for lovers of contemporary + literary fiction, good food, and great convos

RSVP Readers was born from two sisters’ realisation: our best conversations happened around the books we’d been recommending to each other and finally read after throwing them onto our ever growing tbr lists. We wanted to create a consistent, physical space where those saved titles finally get cracked open. This is a space for women in their 20s + 30s to dive into contemporary stories that hold a mirror to our lives. Whether it’s a polarizing debut or a critically acclaimed read, we’re here for the "aha" moments and the heated debates that only a good story (and a great croissant) can spark. Between work deadlines and digital noise, it’s easy to miss out on those slow, offline moments. We swap screens for paperbacks and the group chat for a seat at the table. For us, the "RSVP" is more than just a headcount - it’s a commitment to showing up for yourself, your reading goals, and new friends.

a book obsessed foodie and RSVP Readers co-host · Sydney

I started this club with my sister to bring back the art of the long, offline conversation and to turn "saved" café pins into real-life meetups with fellow readers. When the weekend hits, I’m all about the "slow” - you’ll usually find me at a local café with an iced matcha latte and a paperback in hand (borrowed from the library because I allocate most of my budget to food hehe)
