Losing yourself in a good book brings a certain type of peace. Imagine being away from the bustle of everyday life and enjoying that tranquility with your closest girlfriends.
No busy schedules, no social pressure—just you, your favourite books, comfortable settings, and companionship.
A reading retreat offers something new in a world where “girls’ trips” are frequently associated with jam-packed schedules and Instagram-worthy outfits.
A reading retreat is the kind that allows you to relax, refocus, and reestablish connections with your inner circle and world.
According to Involve pages, “A reading retreat represents a unique concept that combines the tranquility of a getaway with the immersive experience of delving deep into books. For many, this type of retreat offers a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, providing a serene environment where the mind can wander freely through the pages of a novel or the ideas of a non-fiction work.”
Having complete control over the reading selection is one of the best things about a reading retreat. In contrast to book clubs, there is no predefined reading list that restricts what can be read. From classic literature and engrossing mysteries to spiritual writings and developmental psychology, the participant has complete control over the selection. This liberation is energising and makes it possible to have a very satisfying and intimate literary trip, the above source further explains.
Curated Shelves states that group retreats with cosy chairs and stimulating chat are perfect for companions who enjoy reading. They resemble book clubs but concentrate on fiction or personal development. A theme can help you pick the best books and make the most of your reading time, which will make it more fun.
