Burlington Silent Book Club May Meet-Up

Be a part of our flash mob of readers! With traditional book clubs, there's always the scramble to finish the book and the pressure to have something smart to say. At Silent Book Club, there's no assigned reading. Just bring a book, chat with your neighbors, and enjoy an hour of quiet companionable reading in a room full of people doing the same thing!
Here's how this low-key monthly event goes down:
-2:00-2:30 - Get settled. Get a drink/snack, grab a seat, hang out and chat!
-2:30-3:30 - Quiet reading hour--read the book you brought (this is essentially a flash mob of readers)
-3:30-4:00 - Stick around to chat more. Or, keep reading. Or, feel free to head out. Choose your own adventure, this is whatever you want it to be!
This month, we're excited to read on the Juniper Terrace at Hotel Vermont in Burlington for the first time. Bring your book, delight in a spring cocktail, and make a friend! Food, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages are available for purchase too.
Tips:
-Coming solo or for the first time? We very much encourage this, and you will not be the only one!
-If you're sensitive to background noise/music, bring headphones for the reading hour
-Recommend arriving on time to ensure you get a seat on the terrace
-If you're driving, park for free for 2 hours at the Downtown Garage next door (entrance at 41 Cherry St)
