What's on Your "I Should Read That" Shelf? 📚

Join us Friday for a casual Book Lovers Mix & Mingle!

Do you have a stack of books at home you've been meaning to read?

Or a mental list of classics, histories, memoirs, and novels that you keep saying you'll get to "someday"?

Come share them with us!

Whether you're looking for:
✨ Company while tackling ambitious books
✨ Accountability and motivation to finally start reading them
✨ Thoughtful conversations with fellow book lovers
✨ Or simply an excuse to talk about books over lunch and coffee…
…we'd love to meet you.

📅 Friday August, 2026
🕜 1:30 PM
📍 Busboys and Poets, Takoma Park, DC
No assigned reading. No pressure. Just a welcoming gathering of curious readers sharing the books they're excited to read and helping shape the future of the I Should Read That Book Club.

Bring a favorite title—or ten—to add to the group's reading list.

All curious readers are welcome!
