Why Book Lovers Need a Weekend Away (and What I’m Planning 👀)

There’s something sacred about curling up with a good book, the kind that steals your attention and won’t let go until you’ve read every last word. But if we’re being honest… life doesn’t always make space for that kind of reading magic, does it?

We’ve got kids. Jobs. Overflowing laundry baskets. Half-finished to-do lists. And suddenly, your reading time gets pushed to the end of the day, when your eyes are too tired to stay open past page two.

That’s why I started dreaming about something different.
Not just more time to read, but intentional time. Space to relax. Connect. Get lost in a story. And maybe even meet a few fellow bookworms who totally get why you always have a book in your bag (just in case).



So… I started planning something. Something for us.

A weekend designed for book lovers.

Not a stuffy conference. Not a loud event center with packed schedules. But an immersive, peaceful retreat built for cozy moments and magical memories. I wanted cottages that felt like fairytales. Food that felt nourishing. Activities that felt optional. And people who felt like friends.

This isn’t just about reading. It’s about resetting.

We’re talking:
– Slow mornings and strong coffee
– Cozy corners made for deep reading
– Bookish workshops and author chats
– A dreamy setting straight out of a fantasy novel
– Quiet connection, creative play, and time to just be

And yes, you’ll leave with a heavier suitcase (hello, goodie bags and book fair finds), but a much lighter soul.

I’m announcing all the dreamy details on August 29 at 8:00 a.m.
Make sure you’re on the list, because I have a feeling this magical weekend is going to fill up fast.

Until then, keep your books close and your slippers closer.
Because the coziest weekend of 2025 is coming, and it might just have your name on it.
