The Silent Book Club
- Join the introvert revolution!
- Social Activity
The Silent Book Club is a global community of readers and introverts, with more than 500 chapters in 50 countries around the world. Members and guests gather in public places such as bars, cafés, bookstores, libraries, and online to read together in quiet camaraderie.
The Silent Book Club began in San Francisco in 2012 with a few friends reading in friendly silence at a neighborhood bar. The idea behind it: The founders were looking for a book club where people could simply enjoy books, friends, and drinks, without the pressure of “homework.” There’s no assigned reading. It’s “Bring Your Own Book”: e-books, audiobooks, textbooks, comic books—or pick one up at the library.
All interested readers are welcome to drop by for an hour of individual reading, followed by a glass of wine or tea and conversation for those who’d like to chat.
