Silent Book Club Montclair

5:00 PM - 6:15 PM

Montclair Library

50 South Fullerton Avenue, Montclair, NJ

At Silent Book Club® there's no assigned reading. SBC members gather in bars, cafés, bookstores, libraries, and online to read together in quiet camaraderie. All readers are welcome—ebooks or audiobooks, poetry or prose, fiction or non-fiction... it's BYOBook. Did you love silent reading time in school? Are you more of an introvert that loves books, but doesn't want to jump into a discussion group? Are you looking to read more, but struggle to sit down and just DO IT? If you answered 'yes' to any of these, you might like Silent Book Club! Each month, we meet around Montclair and enjoy each other's company with a book of our own choosing. Registration is required. Please be advised this book club will be meeting at a public location and therefore cannot guarantee a quiet reading environment. This book club is best for readers who enjoy a coffeeshop ambiance (low chatter, music, outside noise, etc.) or those who prefer to read with headphones.
