Western Branch

A monthly gathering to share what you’re reading then settle in for an hour of silent, sustained reading. At the end of the hour, attendees can socialize—or not!

Do you want to join a bookish community but feel intimidated by traditional book clubs? Do you enjoy reading in a quiet space but don’t like doing so alone? Do you want to meet other people who feel the same way? Then join us in the monthly Silent Reading Society! There will be optional mingling time 30 minutes before and after an hour of silent reading. Bring your preferred format of book with you and feel free to bring (quiet) snacks and refreshments too!

AGE GROUP: | Adults |
