What we’re about
Are you trying to find some uninterrupted time to focus on your book? Would you like to meet fellow readers from across the five boroughs? Welcome to Silent Book Club NYC!
We don’t assign reading for our meetups. Just bring a book, whether it’s something you’re currently enjoying or that book you’ve been meaning to get around to forever. Paper, e-book, or audio — they’re all welcome. We’ll share the books we brought (we’re always on the lookout for our next great read) and then settle in to read silently together.
Please read our community guidelines before posting to the group for the first time.
