Booker Prize Short List Social at Palate 2026

Join us for our third annual Booker Prize Short List Social at Palate.

Every year we get together at Palate to talk about the shortlisted books we’ve read. Some people read them all, some people read one, there’s no pressure, this is a social event where we tell each other why we loved, or indeed hated the books we’ve read. We try and convince each other to read our favorites and almost every time we host this event we have chosen the wrong winner. It’s all a bit of cosy, candlelit bookish fun.
