About us
There’s a new book club in the town and it’s lit!
You’re very familiar with the dread of impending end of the book you’re immersed in? Know the exhaustion of the day after staying up all night just to get through that next chapter? You’re unabashedly proud of your tsundoku tendencies? And above all - can’t stop thinking about what you just read and absolutely need to talk about it all with the fellow sufferers?
Then join “It’s lit!”, the newest book club in Antwerp, where we’ll choose (the hardest part!), read and discuss all from literary classics, debate stirring books and the hottest picks of the moment, hoping to avoid that horror of readgret!
We’ll try to have some structure to our discussions in order to keep everybody engaged and to make even the newest of newbies feel at ease.
All welcome, but please leave any sort of bigotry between your own four walls.
