Cambridge International Friends

Let's meet up and have a pleasant afternoon with other bookfriendly humans. No common book, just bring whatever you've been reading and join us for some communal reading time. If instead you prefer to do artwork, painting, crocheting, crafts etc then that's totally welcome too!

Remember to pack headphones with you in case surrounding noise becomes an issue.

From the website (https://silentbook.club/pages/about-us)

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.

This is our weekly meetup.

If you are interested in having some drinks/food and a chat please join us.

Please sign up only if you are sure you are coming and respect the RSPV list, as its a small group event.

If you sign up and do not turn up without changing your RSVP, I will move you to waiting list in future events.

Hope to see you there :)

It's that time time of the year, all dark and spooky! (And not just talking about the attendees :P)

We have been doing this for the past 2 years and it was a really good event so we are planning another big Halloween Party!

Costumes heavily encouraged! As most people do come in a form of costume you will feel out of place without one :)

Expect chaos!

Please keep your RSVPs updated and hope to see you there!

Location is not yet confirmed!
