Ulysses Bookstore

Looking for a New Book Club to Join?

We run three general book clubs for 2026 which meet in-person at the store and run as a block of three meetings at a time.

Details 

The price of the membership is $150 for the three months and will include a copy of each of the books that we will be reading for the three month block (3 new release titles) and three in-store meet ups with wine, tea or coffee.

Members meet once a month at our Hampton Street store to discuss the book. A Ulysses Bookstore staff member facilitates the meeting. The meetings start at 7pm and run for approximately an hour-and-a-half of conversation. For 2026 our general book clubs meet on the third Thursday of the month, the following Tuesday evening, and the last Thursday of the month.

Please note that book club memberships are not refundable or able to be exchanged. You will still get the books for the three month period even if you are not able to or decide not to attend a meeting.

Existing book club members will get first preference to re-book for the next three months, however if you decide not to re-book we cannot hold your spot for you and it will be offered to our waiting list. If you wish to hold your spot you will need to re-book even if you are going to miss some meetings. 

Does your book club want to buy your books locally

and enjoy a great book club discount?

The store offers a discount to private book clubs who purchase their book club books from us based on the number of copies purchased.

Please contact us via email to register your book club and to let us know the book title, date that you need the book to be available to collect and the number of copies you would like to order.  Payment is required on ordering and there is no exchange on a book club order. We will then let you know when your order has arrived so that one of your members can collect the book order prior to your book club meeting. Two weeks lead time is required for this service.

The Discounts

0-4 copies: No discount

5-9 copies: 10 % discount

10 plus copies: 15% discount

You should email your order to orders@ulyssesbookstore.com.au We will then confirm that the book is available and send a discount code to use when paying for the books if paying online.
