Silent Book Club Athens

Silent Book Club Athens Join us for independent reading in a cozy community setting. Adults of all ages are welcome. BYOBook! and internationally.

The concept of Silent Book Club Athens is simply to bring together book lovers in the Athens, Georgia community. There is no assigned reading, no deadline to finish a book, and no required discussion. Bring your book of choice and enjoy reading in the company of others who appreciate and support reading too. Adults of all ages are welcome, and so are books of all genres and formats - e-readers, iP

ads, laptops, and audiobooks too! Silent Book Club began in San Francisco in 2012 and has grown to include hundreds of chapters around the U.S. Visit silentbook.club to learn more about our parent organization and its amazing founders. Athens chapter organizers Kathleen and Stacy set up reading meetups at local businesses each month which you can sign up for through our Linktree or directly through Eventbrite. Advance signup is strongly encouraged as our wonderful readers frequently max out the seating available. We welcome feedback, suggestions, and questions anytime via direct message, email, or in person. We can't wait to meet you and see what you're reading!

🌎 The Globe reading this week! Love this variety of titles y’all brought.

Did you get some silent reading in this month, whether with SBCA or on your own? If you did, give yourself a hug! If you didn’t, give yourself a hug and take a few minutes this weekend to snuggle up with your current read. See you in September!

Globe Wednesday was very special this month. We celebrated the birthdays of co-hosts Hanna and Stacy, and Stacy led her last reading event as a co-host. It is bittersweet as Stacy has been co-hosting and helping organize our events for five years now. She is a huge part of why Silent Book Club Athens is what it is today and we are going to miss her so much! She’ll still be around for a little while before her family moves on to new adventures so make sure you say hi to her if you get a chance!

Hi Silent Book Club Athens followers, quick note here that we share updates primarily through Instagram. We used to be able to sync Instagram and Facebook posts but are experiencing glitches as of late, so Facebook may not always have the most current information or recent event photos.

We’ll do our best to keep up with both platforms, but we also invite you to visit our linktree below for a list of upcoming events! We appreciate each and every reader in our little community and are so glad you’re here with us.

Linktree. Make your link do more.
