The Hobart Silent Book Club meets on the first Friday of each month in the Afterword Cafe.
The first ever Silent Book Club started in a local bar in San Francisco in 2012 by a couple of friends, Guinevere de la Mare and Laura Gluhanich. There are now Silent Book Club chapters all over the world. There are no ‘reading books’ prescribed: you simply bring a book you are reading, or want to read, and then have an hour of uninterrupted reading time.
Created for introverts, there is no reason to speak, converse, or cringe through awkward small talk. Silent Book Club is about community: everyone is welcome, and anyone can join.
Silent reading begins at 5.30pm and finishes at 6.30pm.
The Afterword Cafe will be open for cakes and drinks, including wine, until 6.00pm.
*This is a free event.
