Fall River, Massachusetts (Groundwork)

If you’ve ever wanted to join a book club but don’t have time to finish the assigned reading each month, then Groundwork's Silent Book Club is your new happy place.

With Silent Book Club, there is no pressure because there is no assigned book. Just show up with whatever book you’re currently reading, choose a comfy spot and settle in for an hour of silent reading among like-minded people. Afterward, connect with fellow book lovers and enjoy some casual conversation about books!

Light snacks and refreshments are provided but feel free to bring your own. We are a dog friendly space. Friendly pups are welcome!

Check out Groundwork for information about upcoming meetups.

Have you ever wanted to join a book club without actually having to read a specific book or, you know, talk to people?  Silent Book Club may be for you.  GPL is starting a monthly program, where you can come, socialize (or not) for 45 minutes in our Maker Space, then go anywhere you want in the library and simply read.  You can read in groups, in couples, or gloriously alone.  It is totally up to you.

What kind of books can you read?  Whatever kind you want.  There's no judgment here, just reading. We'll see you here!

Check our Events page for more information and upcoming meetups.

Silent Book Club - Weymouth is a community of introverted readers who gather in person to read together in quiet camaraderie.

Often with traditional book clubs there's the scramble to finish the assigned book, and the pressure to have something smart to say. Wouldn't it be great to have a book club where you could just enjoy books, friends, and drinks—without any homework? At Silent Book Club, there's no assigned reading.
