Book Lovers & Deep Conversations for Singles
Tired of dating apps that feel like job interviews? Let’s swap the swipes for storytelling. Join me for book swaps, literary mixers, and real conversations with people who actually read.

About this collection
Instead of awkward small talk, I use conversation prompts and 'blind date with a book' exchanges to break the ice. You’ll walk into a cozy bookstore cafe, grab a coffee, and instantly have a shared topic—the book in your hands—to start a real connection without the pressure of a traditional date.
For many, the standard dating experience is draining. It’s too focused on stats and not enough on substance. That is why I started these literary mixers. Whether you are in Mumbai at Fictionary in Bandra, or exploring a new venue in Bengaluru, the goal remains the same: create a space where you do not have to 'perform'.
We start with a 'Blind Date with a Book'. You bring a wrapped book, we swap them, and suddenly you have a conversation starter that says something about your taste. Then, we use specific conversation menus—not just 'what do you do for work?'—to get into topics that actually matter. It is an introvert-friendly way to meet fellow singles who value intellect and a good story.
My events are strictly for high-intent individuals. I keep the group sizes small—usually around 20 people—so you can actually talk to everyone in the room. No shouting over loud music, no forced networking. Just coffee, books, and the chance to meet someone who gets your reference to a book you love. It is about finding your tribe, one page at a time.

I’m Radhika, and I believe the best connections start with a story, not a swipe. I design these spaces because I’m tired of the dating game and want to help you find people who are just as curious and thoughtful as you are.
