Beyond the Bookshelves: A Connection Quest

Join The Critical Match and Secret Lantern Books & Games for Beyond the Bookshelves: A Connection Quest—an evening designed for readers, gamers, TTRPG adventurers, and anyone looking to turn shared interests into real-world connection.

Through a series of guided conversations and thoughtfully crafted prompts, you'll meet fellow adventurers in a way that feels natural, welcoming, and genuinely fun. Talk favorite books, compare fictional worlds, discover your next board game obsession, find potential campaign members, or simply see where the conversation takes you.

Between rounds, grab a coffee or glass of wine from Secret Lantern's drink bar, browse the shelves, check out the games, and keep getting to know the people you've met.

Whether you're searching for a new book-club buddy, your next gaming group, future campaign members, or simply more people who geek out about the same things you do, your table awaits!
Adventures are Better Together
