What we’re about

Welcome to BookTalk Club – Calgary’s nonfiction-focused reading circle for curious minds!

At BookTalk Club, we believe that talking about what you read makes the knowledge stick deeper, and listening to others makes your world even bigger.

Here’s how it works:
Everyone reads a nonfiction, business, self-help, philosophy or biography book of their choice. At our in-person monthly or biweekly events, each member gets 5–7 minutes to share what they’ve read, focusing on key ideas, personal notes, or their thoughts. You don’t even have to finish the book—just come ready to share the insights that moved you.

Why it works:
• You retain more when you explain what you’ve read.
• You absorb more by listening to 7 other members share what they’ve learned.
• You discover more books and ideas in a single evening than you could on your own.

By reading just one book, you leave each meeting with insights from seven more. It’s like multiplying your knowledge without multiplying your time.

This isn’t just a book club—it’s a social learning experience built for people who love to read, connect, and think out loud.

Let’s read, talk, and grow together.
