You don&#8217;t necessarily meet other bookish people because you just sit there. You don&#8217;t really interact a huge amount with the authors. You might get a book signed, but that&#8217;s it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Whereas this event is really about the book community.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our slogan is book people are the best people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It is a philosophy Johns and co-host Anthea Hodgson have embraced since launching the book club, which now has more than 6,500 members.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2017, the club has featured almost 100 novels, with many readers now regular retreat attendees.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For the readers, it&#8217;s a great experience because they feel they&#8217;re friends with their favourite authors and often it does become that way,&#8221; Johns said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_188979\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-188979\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-188979\" src=\"https:\/\/static.timesnewsgroup.com.au\/prod\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/Rachael2025websize_94063_tn1781093412.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"899\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-188979\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rachael Johns will host her annual Book Club Retreat in Geelong this month.

We&#8217;re trying to keep a mix of genres and a mix of debut, emerging, and established authors because we really want to support the Australian book industry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Supporting regional communities is also a key part of the retreat&#8217;s philosophy.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_30038\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30038\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-30038\" src=\"https:\/\/static.timesnewsgroup.com.au\/prod\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/ba16b3a5-502a-4943-b_94056.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-30038\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rachael Johns and her event co-host Anthea Hodgson during the retreat author &#8216;speed dating&#8217; event.
