A practical book for people who are new to hosting parties, events, meet-ups.

The tips given in this book are mostly useful for informal gatherings than business gatherings.

However, you can still read it either way.

I really love how the author was concise with his instructions and inputs throughout the book.

Can't wait to implement all the tips and tricks I've learned to host my next party/meet-up! 🙌
