About this Event
Welcome to The Chapters & Chai Book Club — a monthly gathering for women and femmes who love diverse stories, cozy conversations, and soulful socials.
This October, we’re diving into Silvia Moreno-Garcia’s modern gothic classic, Mexican Gothic. Set in a crumbling estate in the Mexican countryside, this eerie and atmospheric tale follows Noemí Taboada as she answers her cousin’s desperate plea for help—and uncovers chilling secrets in the process.
What to Expect
📖 A welcoming discussion of Mexican Gothic
☕ Delicious drinks and dinner available for purchase from Aaktun Coffee + Bar
🤎 A warm community of readers celebrating underrepresented authors
Important Details
- Free event — RSVP required (helps us reserve space!)

🎃 Come ready for an evening of sisterhood, story, and just the right amount of spooky season vibes!
