Our meetup at Kawaikui Beach Park this week is rescheduled from Tuesday the 13th to Wednesday the 14th.
5:30 to 7. Look for Gina in a shady spot on the Waimanalo side of the park (the left side as you face the ocean).
Bring snacks and drinks if you want. Bring a chair or beach towel. Bring sunscreen if you like. And bring whatever you’re reading in whatever format! See you there!
See you at Proof Social Club. Wednesday, 6 to 10. Please text Mitchell at 830-255-7423 if you have questions, if you get lost, or if you’d like company to or from your vehicle or bus stop!
5469 Kalanianaole Hwy. on the far edge of Aina Haina going east, practically the last thing before Niu Valley. Free parking, shady trees, a (public park) restroom, and even a covered pavilion.
Look for Gina in a shady spot on the Waimanalo side of the park (left side as you’re facing the ocean)! She has a table sign with a reading hippo on it.
Bring snacks and drinks (if you want), a chair or beach towel, maybe some sunscreen, and physical books, ebooks, audio books, textbooks, comic books, or whatever!
We’ll chat a little, take a voluntary group photo, read for about an hour, and then chat a little more. Socializing is totally optional, of course! Please add your name to our email list (if you’re not on it), and please take a Honolulu Silent Book Club sticker if you haven’t already got one.
Our monthly reading session at Kahala Mall is on for Thursday the 13th, from 6 to 8.
Bring something to read! Bring anything to read! In whatever format!
Look for us at the big round table in front of Whole Foods Market. If you see two hippos perched atop a book, you’ll know you’ve found us.
We’ll say hi (if you want to) at 6, then take an optional group photo, then read for an hour beginning at around 6:30. At 7:30, keep reading, stick around and chat, or call it a night.
We’ll have a book exchange table, so bring a few or take a few. I’d rather you take unclaimed books back with you, but if you don’t, I’ll drop them off at the Little Free Library at Makiki District Park.
Tons of free parking. Lots of food and drink options nearby, but no pressure to spend any money at all. Restrooms in mall and in Whole Foods Market. If it rains, we’ll probably move to tables in the mall because we probably won’t get those tables under the eaves right in front of Whole Foods. But look there first. 🙂
If you don’t already have a Honolulu Silent Book Club sticker, please take one! And we have cards with all our info, in case you’d like to spread the love.
PLEASE NOTE: WE ARE MEETING AT 2:30, NOT 2:00 AS WAS ORIGINALLY ANNOUNCED! See you there!
Saturday, March 8, from 2:30 to 4:30 at Kawaikui Beach Park.
Kawaikui Beach Park (5475 Kalanianaole Hwy) is on the far edge of Aina Haina going east, practically the last thing before Niu Valley. It has free parking, shady trees, a (public park) restroom, and even a covered pavilion.
Look for Gina in the pavilion!
(restroom on the left; pavilion on the right)
Bring snacks and drinks if you want. Bring a chair or beach towel, and maybe some sunscreen. Bring your physical books, ebooks, audio books, textbooks, comic books, or whatever!
We’ll chat a little, take a voluntary group photo, then read for about an hour, and then chat a little more. Socializing is totally optional, of course! Please take a Honolulu Silent Book Club sticker if you haven’t already got one.
We’re meeting Wednesday night at Proof Social Club, in Downtown Honolulu where Chaplain Lane meets Fort Street Mall!
6 to 10. There’s no program; just show up, get something to eat or drink, read, and (if you like!) meet other book-lovers. Pasta Boys will be there. Check out their IG (@pastaboys.proof) to see possible offerings.
We’ll have a book exchange table, so bring a few who might be looking for new homes, or take a few who would look great on your nightstand.
The cute kitty lamps will also be there.
Street parking is free after 6. I always park in the Beretania-Nuuanu underground municipal lot. It’s well-lighted with wide stalls, and it’s reasonably priced. It exits on Pauahi Street, so it’s about two short blocks from the bar.
A lot of people like to park in Kukui Plaza, which is right across Beretania from Fort Street Mall. It’s the same price and a lot closer, but I haven’t parked there since grad school days (we’re talking a long time ago) so I can’t personally vouch for it. Entrance on Kukui St. behind the Safeway.
Please text Mitchell (830-255-7423) if you’d like someone to accompany you to or from your vehicle or your bus stop! I’m serious!
meet us at the big round table outside whole foods market!
