'The Testaments' Early Bird Coffee and Pastry Giveaway

Overview

The wait is over. Ten months after it was first announced, Margaret Atwood's highly anticipated sequel to The Handmaid's Tale is being released to the world on Tuesday, September 10. Knowing how badly you want to get your hands on The Testaments (and not be the only one at the office that doesn't have a clue what everyone is talking about), Readings Carlton is opening the store bright and early at 7.30am, so you can be one of the first to delve into the story.

Obviously, if you're going to be up at that time — and consuming bleak, dystopian fiction, too — you need sustenance. So Readings' neighbours Heartattack and Vine will be providing free coffee and pastries to the keen literary minds picking their books up between 7.30am and 9am, or until all the goodies run out.

Can't wait? In the meantime, you can have a gander at an extract of The Testaments online.

'The Testaments' will be released on Tuesday, September 10. Readings Carlton will be open from 7.30am, with free coffee and pastries available until 9am.
