A midweek evening on the second Wednesday every month in Old Amersham, a thoughtful book, a glass of prosecco, and easy conversation around the table at UNDICI. So, put 14 October in your diary.
Midweek plans, sorted.
There’s something really lovely happening on the second Wednesday of every month at 7 pm at our Italian wine bar and bookshop in Old Amersham, and if you’re into good books and even better wine, this one’s worth knowing about.
At UNDICI, their monthly Book Club brings together a small group of people for a relaxed evening of conversation, stories, and a glass of something nice in hand.
In October we’ll be discussing People Pleaser by Bryony Gordon — a funny, sharp and highly relatable novel about what happens when you’ve spent so long keeping everyone else happy that you’ve forgotten what you actually want.
Olivia Greenwood has been trying to please people for years — at work, at home, in her marriage and with her family. But after one particularly disastrous day and an even more unexpected night out, something shifts. Suddenly, Olivia finds herself unable to keep saying yes when she really means no.
Warm, witty and painfully recognisable in places, People Pleaser explores burnout, relationships, expectations, identity and the pressure — particularly on women — to be everything to everyone.
It’s a fun read with plenty underneath the surface, and exactly the sort of book that should get us talking around the table.
No pressure, no formalities. Just a table, a book, and a really easy, welcoming atmosphere, whether it’s your first time or you’ve been before.
Tickets: £12.5 per person
Includes a glass of Prosecco on arrival.
Additional wines and books will be available to purchase on the night.
Spaces are limited, and booking is recommended.
If you love books, conversation and a great atmosphere, this could be your new favourite monthly ritual in Old Amersham.
