If you're the type who can't help pointing out the differences between the book and the adaptation, this one's for you.
This retreat has already written its chapter, but the story doesn’t end here. Discover what’s coming next, or reach out to plan a custom retreat just for you.

You read the book. You watched the show. You had opinions. Maybe you shouted them at your TV. Maybe you quietly muttered, “the book was better.” Either way, you’re one of us.
This weekend is for the biblio-cinephiles, the ones who live for the details, the dialogue, the deviations. The ones who dissect the casting choices and scream internally when the ending gets rewritten for “streaming audiences.”
Spend a weekend with fellow obsessives who understand the sacred art of both page and picture. We're diving into stories that made it from the shelf to the screen — some brilliantly, others... not so much. Think: Mr. & Mrs. American Pie, Big Little Lies, Normal People, Where the Crawdads Sing.
What to expect when you're book[ed].
No assigned reading.
No scheduled discussions.
No group pressure.
Just beautiful places, good books, and a community that gets it.
