North Shore (Greater Boston) Massachusetts, USA
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. We'll meet on the first Tuesday of each month at 6PM (location will rotate) throughout the North Shore.

Please check out our Facebook page or Instagram @silentbookclubns for next month's location. We are excited to welcome you into our ever-growing, inclusive community!

Woburn, Massachusetts, USA
Join your like-minded neighbors and community members for a non-traditional reading experience! Grab your favorite book, find a comfy spot, and settle in for an evening of pure reading bliss.

Silent Book Club is a fun way to meet like-minded people (if you want) and find great book recommendations (or not!) There's no assigned book, so no pressure to discuss or analyze anything. Just bring your reading glasses, and whatever great book you're reading at the moment, and immerse yourself in the joy of reading.

Typically the first half hour is time to mingle and share what you're reading, maybe order some drinks, or maybe just jump right in to your book. Then we will commence silent reading for an hour, with the last half hour slated for discussing your books or just to continue your reading. No pressure.
