Next week marks the release of VIGIL, the latest novel from award-winning author George Saunders. As brilliant a writer as Saunders is, he sadly has not (yet) mastered the art of teleportation so his author tour can only cover so many stops. But never fear, readers, Silent Book Club and Random House are bringing the book launch party to you!

Get new book recommendations every month from Silent Book Club! Starting in January 2026, we'll be shining a spotlight on a new book release each month.

Don’t be alarmed, this is not assigned reading! SBC will always be a BYO Book club. But one of the things we love most about Silent Book Club meetups, and our online community, is the opportunity to get book recommendations from humans, not algorithms.
