Have you ever wanted to join a book club but they never pick the books you want to read? Have you thought, man, I just really don't want to talk to people but the camaraderie of being in a book club sounds great? Then look no further! Join us for chill vibes, non-messy snacks, and a whole uninterrupted hour of reading! There will be some light background noise of waves or other soothing sounds, and lower lighting (but not too light, we don't want to hurt our eyes!), and the rest is up to you.
