Beautifully decorated for the holidays, the home will feel especially festive and cozy, setting the perfect scene for slow mornings, uninterrupted reading, and evenings spent connecting with fellow book lovers!
Throughout the property, there is plenty of room for group activities, cozy conversations, and spaces to curl up with your book.

We are thrilled to announce that our December retreat book pick is Christmas Staycation by the hilarious, brilliant, and bestselling romance author Meghan Quinn! The book releases on October 20, 2026.
Nothing says Merry Christmas like fake fiancés, family pressure, and falling for your ex’s brother. When people-pleasing Taran agrees to a fake engagement to keep the holiday peace, her ex’s cocky, charming baseball-player brother, Nolan, sees straight through the act. As Christmas chaos and family secrets pile up, their undeniable chemistry threatens to land them both on the naughty list.
All activities are optional, but participation is encouraged!
We are excited to collaborate once again with our friends at In Bloom Bookery for an exclusive “Christmas Morning at In Bloom”! Before the bookstore opens to the public, we will enjoy festive games, bookish gifts, delicious treats, and a few extra surprises.
Structured discussion for our Retreat Book Pick where we dive into it together! Come prepared with all your thoughts, opinions, and hot takes. We will provide the good vibes and freshly baked cinnamon rolls. We will even schedule a Zoom call (or in-person chat, details TBD) with a romance author!
Bring a $25 bookish themed gift to participate in a gift exchange game.
We’ll have an assortment of festive crafts for you to enjoy at any time. This may include book cover bedazzling, cozy coloring books, vision board crafting, etc.
There will be plenty of time to sit back, relax, and dive into your latest read. This is, after all, a reading retreat and you’ll have open-ended time to cozy up in your favorite corner of this beautiful house.
For an added fee, we can organize additional activities such as morning yoga, a winery visit, guided crafting classes, etc. More details to come!
