On October 11th, Sidekick Coffee & Books is serving up It’s Getting Plot in Here, a brand-new festival dedicated to everything we love about love stories. Think swoony slow burns, laugh-out-loud banter, and spicy page-turners, all enjoyed with a latte, cocktail, or maybe even a chocolate croissant in hand. It’s the perfect blend of books, beverages, and butterflies. Meet the Authors This festival brings together a lovely group of romance authors ready to sweep you off your feet. From laugh-out-loud rom-coms to heart-racing contemporary love stories, these writers dive into different corners of the genre and remind us why romance is the ultimate comfort read.
