Not your average vacation — this is a trip for readers.
Bookish Getaways are designed for women who want to escape the chaos, dive into their favorite stories, and connect with fellow book lovers in real life. Whether it's a cozy cabin weekend, a scenic mountain lodge, or a themed cruise at sea, each getaway is built around the magic of books and the joy of shared connection.
These are not yoga-and-smoothie retreats (unless you're reading while sipping one). Think:
Dedicated quiet time for reading
Bookish trivia nights
Book-themed crafts & DIYs
Group book exchanges
Author-inspired surprises
Time to unwind or nerd out about your favorite fictional worlds
Some getaways will be cozy and quiet, others adventurous or even luxurious — but they’ll always be bookish and designed for women who feel most at home with a good story.
Upcoming retreats and cruises launching soon!

Hi, I’m Samantha — a 34-year-old book lover, introvert at heart, and founder of Bookish Getaways.
Born and raised under the sunny skies of Arizona, I’ve always found comfort in quiet moments, good stories, and deep conversations with kindred spirits. Books have been my passport to other worlds and a constant companion through every season of life.
I’m a little all over the place with my reading — and I love it that way. My favorite series is A Court of Thorns and Roses (yes, I’m fully Team Night Court), but I’ll always have a soft spot for my Twilight era and those Nicholas Sparks stories that leave you crying in the best way. I’m drawn to fantasy, romance, angsty love stories — anything with heart, magic, or emotional chaos.
I also personally love to travel, especially with a good book in hand. There’s something magical about curling up to read in a cozy cabin, on a quiet beach, or in a charming café in a new city. As an introvert, I know how special it is to have space to unwind and still feel connected — which is exactly why I started Bookish Getaways.
This is a cozy, uplifting escape where women can come together over their shared love of books, travel, and meaningful connection. Whether it’s quiet reading time or laughing over book boyfriends by the fire, it’s all about community, comfort, and stories we’ll never forget.
Come as you are. And bring your current read.
