Sunset Book Club
Details
No assigned books. No pressure. Just bring whatever you’re reading, walk to the top of the tower, and watch Berlin turn golden while your pages do the same. Talk about what you are reading, and connect with fellow book lovers!
How it works:
We meet at the top of the Flakturm at 7:15. For the first 45 minutes, we read in silence (or near-silence) as the sun sets. Then we gather and each person shares: a highlight or passage they loved, a thought the book sparked, or just what they’ve been reading and why.
Reading something that’s changing how you see the world? Bring it. Halfway through a novel you can’t put down? Tell us about it. Just started something and not sure yet? Perfect — let’s figure it out together.
Why it works:
Knowing you’ll share what you’ve read is the best motivation to actually read. And there’s something about watching a sunset that makes ideas feel worth talking about.
Bring: a book, something to sit on, and something to drink. The view is already taken care of.
