Book Club January

Beach Read by Emily Henry — a sun-drenched, heart-tugging romance that blends sharp wit with genuine emotional depth. When two blocked writers with nothing in common except a shared deadline become summer neighbours, sparks fly along the shoreline. As January and Gus strike a deal to swap genres, they soon discover that love—like the perfect beach day—arrives when you least expect it. Ideal for fans of smart, swoony storytelling and long afternoons with sand between your toes — best discussed over iced coffees and sea-salt breezes at Books N Bricks Cafe, Auckland.
