Book Swap No. 18 — Trespass
You're invited to our next book swap!
Theme: Trespass
The book where someone goes somewhere they shouldn't. A place, a class, a secret, a person they had no business getting close to.
Bring a book about trespassing. It could be:
Physically trespassing: breaking into a house, sneaking into a forbidden place, illegal border crossing, colonialising
Socially trespassing: crashing a class/world you don't belong to, imposter syndrome made literal
Emotionally trespassing: reading someone's diary, uncovering a secret you weren't meant to find, an affair
Trespassing on the dead: inheriting something you shouldn't have, going through a deceased person's belongings
Any kind counts. Leave with one you haven't read yet.
FICTION ONLY.
Space TBC (exact venue will be confirmed upon RSVP)
🎟 Free entry
What to bring
1 wrapped fiction book for the main swap, something where someone crosses a line they shouldn't have
You're welcome to bring additional books you'd like to declutter or casually swap
You may also swap with books available at the event, subject to availability
Come for the books, the conversation and leave with something new both on your bookshelf and maybe on your contacts.
Please only book if you're sure you can make it. Heaps of planning goes into these events and we do cap numbers to fit the space so when spots go unused, other readers miss out. If your plans change, just let us know ASAP so we can offer your ticket to someone else!
