About us
Welcome to Bangkok Book Club!
🐛📚 We are a friendly group of bookworms who gather once a month to chat about what we've been reading lately.
Come are you are and share your thoughts on whatever read you're currently enjoying. We welcome all genres, both fiction and non-fiction alike.
This is the perfect place to connect with fellow book lovers, discover new titles and even swap books.
What events can you expect?
- ☕️💬 Monthly Meetups: Every month, we meet on the long tables at IKEA Sukumvit café on a Saturday at 10:30 AM for coffee and bookish chats.
- 📚 Coffee to Cover: Each month we have a specific read, where we diver deeper into a discussion about a pre-selected book. These are hosted at Treehouse Café and have a limited number of sign ups.
- 🥞🖼️ Beyond the Books: We also host smaller, more intimate events throughout the month, like gallery visits, group brunches, book sale trips and more!
Ready to join the fun?
🏳️🌈🌍 We welcome readers of all genres and reading levels. We are proud to celebrate diversity and welcome all readers.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: I have recently been notified of authors/speakers receiving emails from me inviting them to collaborate. Please beware that this is NOT from myself and is someone impersonating me. If you want to reach out to me, please message on here, the official line group or on our instagram :).

Treehouse Cafe and Bar, 20 Soi Sukhumvit 31, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110, Bangkok, THWelcome to another "Coffee to Cover", a series of events by Bangkok Book Club. Join us at Treehouse Café on Saturday 2nd May at 12:00 for coffee whilst we discuss Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk.
This is a safe space to express your thoughts and interpretations, all while making connections with fellow bookworms. Whether you're a seasoned literary critic or a casual reader, everyone's voice matters.
Discussions will be led by John and Harriet and will take place in smaller, intimate groups, which will create a welcoming environment for all of our guests. Due to this, we will be limiting the sign-ups to 18 people. If you're NOT on the list because it's too full please just message us to say you're coming - it'll likely be fine, but we do need to know!
If you cannot make the event, please make sure you mark yourself as "Not Attending" a few days before the event, so that other members have the chance to read + join.
If you have a copy of the book that you have finished and would like to sell on/give to other readers, please share on the discussion below :)
See you there!
Here's the description from Goodreads:
In a remote Polish village, Janina devotes the dark winter days to studying astrology, translating the poetry of William Blake, and taking care of the summer homes of wealthy Warsaw residents. Her reputation as a crank and a recluse is amplified by her not-so-secret preference for the company of animals over humans. Then a neighbor, Big Foot, turns up dead. Soon other bodies are discovered, in increasingly strange circumstances. As suspicions mount, Janina inserts herself into the investigation, certain that she knows whodunit. If only anyone would pay her mind . . .
A deeply satisfying thriller cum fairy tale, Drive Your Plow over the Bones of the Dead is a provocative exploration of the murky borderland between sanity and madness, justice and tradition, autonomy and fate. Whom do we deem sane? it asks. Who is worthy of a voice?
