Read with friends
At Silent Book Club® there's no assigned reading. SBC members gather in bars, cafés, bookstores, libraries, and online to read together in quiet camaraderie.
All readers are welcome—ebooks or audiobooks, poetry or prose, fiction or non-fiction... it's BYOBook.
Welcome to introvert happy hour!

Susan Cain, author of Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking
