WELCOME TO LIT AFTER DARK

Join us on April 30th from 6pm - 8pm for San Diego’s Spiciest Bookish Night Out

Welcome to Lit After Dark, Where romance books meet real talk, real connection, and a little reckless bookish behavior. This isn’t just a book club; it’s a premium girls’ night out hosted by Constance Jones, creator of Cocktails & Cliterature, where we talk about love, sex, book boyfriends, and all the tropes that keep us up at night.

If You’ve Ever:

📚 Hid your spicy book covers in public (because some people just don’t get it)
💬 Wished for a judgment-free space to talk about smutty reads (without someone looking scandalized)
👀 Dropped everything to discuss a jaw-dropping plot twist (because book boyfriends are life)
💃 Wanted a girl gang who just gets your romance obsession (and won’t shame your unhinged TBR choices)

Then, babe, you’ve found your people.

At Lit After Dark, you’re not just attending an event you’re stepping into a sisterhood.
