Spilt Crime Book Club

Welcome to Spilt Crime Book Club, the sister club of Spilt Wine, for readers who like their fiction a little darker.

AboutJoin us once a month for a Sunday afternoon of wine, conversation and crime reads. We’re a small, relaxed book club for people who love books that give you something to talk about afterwards. Whether you read crime all the time or you’re just curious to try something different, everyone’s welcome. Each session is kept small so everyone has space to chat and share their thoughts. Your ticket secures your spot. Grab a drink from the bar, settle in, and get ready to dig in. We focus on crime, thriller and mystery reads, including psychological thrillers, detective fiction, true crime, cosy mysteries and literary crime. Most of our picks are contemporary reads under 400 pages, and we welcome all genders, ages and reading abilities (audiobooks absolutely count). Book club meetings run monthly on a Sunday afternoon at 3pm.

Tickets$10 per person Please only book in if you're sure you'll be able to read the book and attend! We hate seeing empty seats at the table. If you can no longer attend, please let us know as soon as possible. Even if you're outside the refund window, it helps us plan for the event and means we know not to set a place for you at the table. Refunds are available up to 14 days before the event. After this time, tickets are non-refundable, as attendees need time to read the book. If you missed out on tickets to your preferred date, you can join our mailing list + receive early access to future events.
