The Book Club

How the club works, plainly.

No reading quotas, no performance. One book, a shared calendar, and a room full of people who want to talk about it.

  1. 01

    One book a month

    A single selection, chosen with care and announced in advance.

  2. 02

    Read at your pace

    Reading guides, questions and prompts to read alongside.

  3. 03

    Meet to talk

    Live and written discussions, plus author conversations.

Community

Come for the books. Stay for the conversations.

Twelve discussion categories, from poetry to publishing. Threads stay open, so a conversation can keep going long after the meeting ends.
