Bluemont Book Club

May 30th

6:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.

Calling all readers and wine enthusiasts!

The Bluemont Book Club is back with another month of turning pages in Virginia Wine Country.

For the May 2024 session of Book Club, we will be reading the award-winning ‘Best Novella’ . . . . This Is How You Lose The Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Mx Gladstone.



Here’s the blurb from Simon & Scheuster / publishers weekly . . .

“[An] exquisitely crafted tale...Part epistolary romance, part mind-blowing science fiction adventure, this dazzling story unfolds bit by bit, revealing layers of meaning as it plays with cause and effect, wildly imaginative technologies, and increasingly intricate wordplay...This short novel warrants multiple readings to fully unlock its complexities.”

Our gatherings won’t just be about turning pages – there will also be wine!


Tickets are $25.00 per guest and include one book club discussion per month and a curated tasting of three Virginia wines or a glass of your choice per meeting in the company of fellow reading enthusiasts. But unlike our typical guided tasting options, your ticket also comes with book banter. After all - nothing pairs with wine quite so well as a cozy atmosphere, insightful conversation, and the cracked spine of a good book!

This quarter, we’re highlighting Middleburg Books, an indie bookshop nestled in the gorgeous equine country of Middleburg, VA.

    Middleburg Books - woman-owned and operated - opened its doors for the first time on September 28th, 2023. Help us welcome Middleburg Books to the NoVa neighborhood by paying them a visit!
