Calling all book lovers! Join us this June for a cozy, joy-filled Women's Book Reading Retreat at The Leadership Center (2211 Q Street, Aurora, NE) — a weekend designed for readers who love to slow down, sink into a good book, and connect with fellow bookish souls.

Throughout the retreat you'll enjoy:

📖 Cozy reading spaces perfect for getting lost in a great story
🛍️ A Book Fair featuring some of our favorite independent bookstores
🎨 Creative, book-inspired crafting sessions
🍽️ Delicious meals shared with lively conversation and new friends
☕ Quiet reading times to fully immerse yourself in your current read
🏊 Swimming and sauna access for relaxation
🌿 Time to read outdoors on our beautiful grounds
🛒 A little shopping for bookish treasures

Each attendee will also receive an amazing gift bag valued at over $125, filled with some of our favorite bookish items and special treats to make your weekend even more enjoyable.

We’ll offer multiple pricing options, including rates for those who would like to share a room or enjoy a private room. A commuter rate will also be available for those who prefer to travel back and forth. That said, we hope you'll choose to stay with us, make wonderful new friends, and fully enjoy a relaxing weekend immersed in reading.

Meet Your Hosts: Maile Ilac Boeder, Devin Johansen, and Lisa Montoya — lifelong readers who love taking trips together that include good coffee, great food, and all kinds of bookstores. We’re excited to bring that same bookish joy to this special weekend retreat.

✨ Space is limited, so be sure to register early to reserve your spot before the retreat fills up!

Come unwind, read, craft, laugh, and recharge in a lovely book-filled haven. We can't wait to read with you!
