Spill the Tea (Wine) Book Club

Welcome to Spill the Tea (Wine) Book Club at The Marlin Hotel! Join us on June 27, 2025 at 6:00 PM for a cozy evening of book discussions and wine & tea sipping 📚 🍵 🥂

Grab yourself our June book, pour yourself a glass of wine or comforting tea and dive with us into our latest page-turner "Blue Sisters" by Coco Mellors - I'm sure a lot of us recognise the beautiful cover and may have seen it everywhere! Here is the jist✨:

The three Blue sisters are exceptional—and exceptionally different. Avery, the eldest and a recovering heroin addict turned strait-laced lawyer, lives with her wife in London; Bonnie, a former boxer, works as a bouncer in Los Angeles following a devastating defeat; and Lucky, the youngest, models in Paris while trying to outrun her hard-partying ways. They also had a fourth sister, Nicky, whose unexpected death left Avery, Bonnie, and Lucky reeling. A year later, as they each navigate grief, addiction, and ambition, they find they must return to New York to stop the sale of the apartment they were raised in.

But coming home is never as easy as it seems. As the sisters reckon with the disappointments of their childhood and the loss of the only person who held them together, they realize the greatest secrets they’ve been keeping might not have been from each other, but from themselves.

Whether you're a literature enthusiast or just looking for an excuse to join a relaxing and fun friday evening, this club is for you! 📖✨

To give you an idea of what we typically read, since December we have picked and (mostly!) enjoyed: the much hyped and anticipated Sally Rooney's "Intermezzo", followed by "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow" by Gabrielle Zevin in January & "Sorrow and Bliss" by Meg Mason in Februrary And "Orbital" by Samantha Harvey, "The Rachel Incident" by Caroline O'Donoghue (this was brilliant!!) and "Evenings and Weekends" by Oisin McKenna.
