Bring your own book and join us for a different type of book club. Meet fellow readers and socialize for the first half hour, and then enjoy some quality time reading. The last half hour will be spent socializing and sharing what you've been reading.

Our intention in hosting a Silent Book Club is to have avid readers meet once a month on site at Novel Book Bar and Cafe in Portland, ME so that they can grab a coffee or a cocktail, kick back with their favorite book, and enjoy our space. We have had locals ask if Novel will be offering a book club to our clients, and this will be a fantastic way to bring those people in as well as folks who are new to the area, looking to make friends, or just want a change of scenery.

Check out Novel Book Bar & Cafe for more information about our upcoming meetups.

We are librarians who like to read and have snacks, but you don't have to be a librarian to come and read in the library with us. We meet on the third Tuesday of the month.

Silent Book Club Bangor is a group of book lovers socially reading. Meetings will be once a month hosted at Chimera Coffee (24 Broad St, Bangor, Maine). No club fees, no mandatory reading or discussion. Please be kind to our host (who is letting us use the space for free) and purchase a beverage or baked good prior to reading.

Follow us on Instagram for more information about upcoming meetups.

Nothing is needed to officially join the Silent Book Club! Just come to any of our scheduled meetings that you want to! Silent Book Club meets from 3 - 4:30pm in the library's historic wing on the third Friday of the month, starting in March 2024. The book club is geared towards adult and teen readers, but all family members who can read silently are welcome.

Enjoy a quiet hour of reading in our beautiful historic wing with other patrons. Be part of our Silent Book Club with no commitments, no assigned reading, and no required discussion! Bring a book (or borrow one from us) and read whatever you would like while sitting in one of our cozy chairs in the Eleanor Conant Room. The first hour is for silent reading and the last 30 minutes are open for optional discussion and snacks (or continued reading).

3 - 4pm: Show up and silently read.

4 - 4:30pm: Snack and discussion or continued reading (while others are free to quietly discuss their books).
