Welcome to the Autistic Book Club & Autistic BIPOC Book Club!

We read one book each month and meet to discuss it, along with our Autistic experiences. Our conversations go beyond the book (we love tangents) and there’s always room to share your thoughts, if you feel comfortable.

Whether you’re self-diagnosed, formally diagnosed, or still exploring, you're welcome here.

✨ A note on sensory styles: If you’re a sensory-seeking Autist, this group may not be the best fit, as most of our members tend to be quieter and prefer low-stimulation environments.

📚 About the books:
There are no trigger warnings for the monthly book. The group leader reads the book at the same time as members and does not pre-screen content.

💬 We love participation!
This is a space for Autistic voices! Come ready to share, listen, or simply reflect. We’re all Autistic, and your perspective matters.

Discussion tips:
What parts of the book stood out to you as an Autist (or just in general) and why?
Did anything in the book raise questions or reflections from an Autistic (or general) POV?
Were there parts you loved, disliked, didn’t understand, or couldn’t relate to?
Did you DNF (Did Not Finish) the book? If so, what made you stop?
Was there a theme or topic in the book that particularly interested you?

✅ RSVP etiquette:
Click ‘RSVP’ to attend a meeting. If you’re unable to attend, please update your RSVP to ‘Not Going.’ Regular no-shows may result in being flagged and potentially removal from the group.

💡 Please remember:
We’re all at different stages of understanding and embracing our Autistic identity. Our members and leaders come from diverse backgrounds—please be kind and respectful. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to DM us :)

Happy Reading and looking forward to seeing you at the zoom!
