Budapest Silent Book Club #89 - NEW VENUE: Magnet House


Details
Hello everyone,
Silent Book Club is about reading among like-minded people, quietly. If you love reading and are looking for a welcoming community, join us!
This week, we're trying out a fantastic new venue: the Magnet Community House (Magnet Közösségi Ház). We're testing this spot because it's much more spacious, which means we can finally welcome more of you comfortably. This is our first time here, so let's explore it together!
You can find us in the inner courtyard, to the left after the entrance, near the buffet area. They also have cozy 'reading nooks' (könyvkuckó) perfect for our club.
Here is the agenda:
- 14:00 - 14:30 – Introductions. Settle in, and we'll go around the circle to share what book you brought and why you chose it.
- 14:30 - 15:30 – Quiet Reading Hour. Time to dive into your book.
- 15:30 - 16:30 – Discussion & Reflection on what we read.
In the discussion, we can chat about these questions:
- Did you come across a line or passage that stood out to you?
- Would you recommend the book to someone else based on what you read today? Why or why not?
- How does the book connect to the real world or your own experiences?
- Did the book address any universal or timeless issues?
- Did you learn anything from the book that you can apply to your life?
- Are there any characters, events, or ideas you found relatable?
- Did the book make you question anything about life, society, or yourself?
A few practical notes:
- Please support our wonderful host venue by purchasing a coffee or tea during the meetup. This helps ensure we can continue to use their space.
- There might be some background music, so if you’re sensitive to that during reading, feel free to bring headphones.
We look forward to seeing you at our new, bigger spot!
