the book(ish) club
A social reading club for book people📚
Come join likeminded individuals and chat about what you’re currently reading! Perfect for a quick stop on your way home, we'll meet once a month at Bamboo Royal Oak from 6-7pm. Everybody (& genre) is welcome. Build your reading list and your connections at the same time!
...
The book club that's not a book club.
This idea was born out of loving the idea of a book club but not really liking being stuck with one book and a timeline. The book(ish) club will operate similar to a book club with meetups and social time and talking about our reads, but you get to read whatever you want and at whatever speed is working for you busy schedule. You'll get to hear about what books others are reading, maybe get some recommendations or learn about new genres, and also have the option to read the same book with other members (only if you wish), but the overall concept is to come have a fun social book related time!
