The Kindle Buddies Year-End Meet last December 13, 2025 was nothing short of heartwarming and beautiful gathering that brought us book lovers together to celebrate friendship, stories, and the joy of reading as the year came to a close. Filled with meaningful conversations and everyone dressed in red, white, and pink, the event truly captured the spirit of the season.
This special day was lovingly organized by me, together with Marix, our amazing Creative Head, and seeing everything come together so beautifully at Tayo Spaces made it even more memorable.
Our Agenda for the day
- Socialization
- Picture-Perfect Memories at the Photo Booth
- Book of the Month Wrap-Up: The Christmas Fix by Lucy Score

Catching Up & Cozy Conversations ( Socialization )
The day began with cheerful socialization. I loved how conversations flowed so naturally as we bonded over our favorite reads, shared recommendations, and explored the thoughtfully curated merchant booths filled with bookish treasures and accessories. Tayo Spaces provided the perfect cozy and welcoming atmosphere for all of us to connect.

Book Exchange
The book exchange was definitely a crowd favorite. Wrapped books were passed around with so much excitement and curiosity. I gifted my monita a Jane Austen collection—and in return, I received The Little Prince!
