Silent Book Club: Coffeehouse Edition
Looking for a low-key way to connect with fellow readers? Join us for Silent Book Club. There’s no assigned reading — bring whatever book you like (ebooks, audiobooks, graphic novels, even textbooks are welcome). Friends and strangers gather, order food or drinks, share what they're reading, and settle in for an hour of silent, sustained reading. At the end of the hour, attendees can socialize — or not! Silent Book Club is about community. Everyone is welcome, and anyone can join. Agenda for Meetings
4:00 - 4:30 pm - Grab a drink or a snack and find a seat. Say "Hello."
4:30 - 5:30 pm - Silent reading hour. Please step away or outside to chat.
5:30 - 6:00 pm - Share book recommendations or just keep reading! Silent Book Club meets on the first Thursday of the month at Eli's Coffee Shop in Metamora unless otherwise noted. Monthly meetings are free to attend, but we ask that you support our host venue by buying a drink or snack when you can. Bring your book recommendations or books to swap* with other members and share them before you leave. Noise-cancelling headphones or earplugs are recommended if you are sensitive to light conversation (we do not have exclusive use of Eli's). * If you have a book you are willing to share with another reader, please bring it and set it on the community table. When you are done reading, feel free to browse the community table for books. If any books you brought have not been claimed by the end of the meeting, please take them with you and bring them again some other time. Do not leave them at Eli's. Please do not trade library books.
About Silent Book Club
Silent Book Club® is a global community of readers, with more than 1500 chapters in 54 countries around the world led by local volunteers. SBC members gather to read together in quiet camaraderie.
