📚Welcome to the Barrington, IL Chapter for The Silent Book Club📚
📕A Book Club Without the Pressure
📗 No Assigned Reading (Your Book + Your Pace)
📘 Meet at & Support Local Businesses
📙Socializing Not Required

Our goal is to create a community for book lovers and readers who want to pick their own books and read at their own pace while still sharing the experience with like minded friends!

That’s the beauty about SBC! There is no assigned reading or deadlines. Simply bring you and your reading of choice to a scheduled event, grab a drink or treat (location permitting), and get lost in your reading for an hour or so. There will be an opportunity to chat and share with others at the end, but that is never required.
Meeting locations will vary, be sure to check the details for each scheduled meeting. If you have any location suggestions, please let us know.

We look forward to reading with you soon 🤍📚

Join the silent book club movement. There's no assigned reading. Get together to just read in the company of other book lovers and maybe some introverts!

Take some time from your busy day to sit and read with us.

Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life, relax in the serene surroundings, and let the pages transport you to new worlds.

The Green View Silent Book Club chapter is the perfect blend of literature and nature, providing a haven for bibliophiles to nourish their minds and souls. Learn more here! 

We aim to meet twice a month - once in person and once virtually - to read and socialize, socialize and read on the north side of Chicago and nearby Evanston, IL.

All are welcome as long as they want to (1) meet other readers and (2) read books silently with fellow book lovers for a few hours before spending some time chatting about books. Find out more here.

Calling all introverted bookworms! Did you make some reading goals for 2023 and need a little accountability? This is the book group for you!

There's NO assigned reading. Participation is NOT mandatory.

It's a great way to practice self-care during the week, meet new people, and find great book recommendations. The first half hour is optional sharing of what you're reading followed by an hour of quiet reading. Then take a break for light socialization or continue to read. 

We will meet the last Monday of every month, starting in January. Complimentary coffee and tea are in the foyer.
