About us
We’re a community of book lovers who meet regularly to read, discuss, and enjoy great stories together. Through a shared love of reading, we create space for thoughtful conversation, new perspectives, and meaningful connections built around the books that move us.
We choose each our book club pick together, spend time reading on our own, and then gather in welcoming spaces across the city for an open, relaxed discussion. Our conversations range from first impressions to deeper dives into themes, characters, and the author’s craft — sometimes even exploring the cultural and social context behind the story and its relevance to our own lives.
Whether you’re a lifelong reader or just starting your literary journey, you’ll find a warm, welcoming space to share ideas, discover new perspectives, and celebrate the joy of reading.
