About This Event

Five six-minute dates matched by your reading tastes—this is speed dating designed for people who actually want to talk about books. You'll fill out a bookish survey beforehand (favorite genres, beloved titles, hot takes), get paired with compatible readers, and if there's mutual interest, exchange emails afterward. The All Gender Night on September 9th is open to people of all genders dating people of all genders. Ages 24-45, capped at 22 people per night, $15.
