About This Event
Novel Nights: Books & Conversation @NovelPDX
This months theme: Modern Love & Dating
An intentional night of conversation around what dating actually feels like right now— the good, the confusing, and everything in between.
Come solo or with friends. No pressure to read—just come ready to talk.
Suggested Reads (Optional)
- Everything I Know About Love
- Marry Him: The Case for Settling for Mr. Good Enough
- We Do — Stan Tatkin
- Or just your own experiences
We’ll explore:
- What does “good enough” actually look like in real life?
- Why does dating feel harder—even when you know what you want?
- Are we asking for too much… or finally asking for the right things?
- What are you seeing out there right now?
