About this Event

✨ What is Café & Chapters?


Café & Chapters is a monthly in-person book club for Black readers and people of colour in Montreal. We meet in cozy cafés or casual restaurants to talk about fiction by BIPOC authors—stories that speak to identity, culture, joy, grief, love, and everything in between.



📚 What to Expect:
  • A welcoming space for reflection, conversation, and connection
  • A thoughtfully chosen fiction book each month by a Black author or author of colour
  • Good drinks, cozy vibes, and maybe a pastry or two
  • A small group of 8 to 15 people to keep things warm, intentional, and easy to settle into
  • Suggestions for future books, series, or even films are always welcome — we’re keeping it flexible and fun!



☕ About the Meetups:

We gather monthly at a local café in NDG, Westmount, Mile End, or Verdun (venue and book announced ahead of time by email). Each meetup is built around a shared read and open, affirming conversation.

📖 Please read the selected book before each meetup — we’ll use it as our springboard into thoughtful dialogue.

Whether you're a longtime bookworm or easing back into reading, this space is for you. Come solo or bring a friend — you'll be in good company either way. ❤️
