Welcome to the Silent Book Club Tontitown Chapter!
What better way to spend your evening then nose deep in a book, glass of wine/preferred beverage twirling in your hand while being surrounded by kindred spirits? Enjoy the local community of your fellow book worms without the pressures or exceptions of a regular book club. Stay around after the hour long quiet reading session to gossip about your current read, grow your TBR list, or simple slip away till the next time we meet. The perfect place for introverts, extrovert, and everybody who are somewhere between the lines.
So, why wait? Join our bibliophile society! We can’t wait to meet you!
Here’s the rundown of what the Silent Book Club based off their website!
Silent Book Club is a global community of readers and introverts, with 300 chapters around the world led by local volunteers. SBC members gather in person and online to read together in quiet camaraderie.
Silent Book Club started in 2012 with a couple of friends—Guinevere de la Mare and Laura Gluhanich—reading in companionable silence at our neighborhood bar in San Francisco. We loved books, and reading with friends, but most of our previous attempts at book clubs had fizzled out.
Often with traditional book clubs there's the scramble to finish the assigned book, and the pressure to have something smart to say. Wouldn't it be great to have a book club where you could just enjoy books, friends, and wine—without any homework? At Silent Book Club, there's no assigned reading.
We started Silent Book Club because reading with friends enriches our lives and makes us happy. We love hearing about what people are reading (often in their other book clubs) and we think it's important to put down our phones and be social. Real, live, breathing-the-same-air social, not hearting-you-on-Instagram social.
Silent Book Club is about community. Everyone is welcome, and anyone can join or launch a chapter. We encourage people all over the world to start their own Silent Book Clubs. All you need is a friend, a café, and a book. We have active chapters around the world in cities of all sizes, and new chapters are being launched by volunteers every week
