A book club without the assigned reading. 📚

BookTalk is back—a new chapter of our choose-your-own-book social, with more little activities and the same good company.

We’ll vote next week on a topic, then you choose any book you think fits. Past topics have included “the main character needs therapy” and “a book you would gift.” Interpret it however you like—that’s part of the fun.

Have an idea for a topic? Drop it in the comments! Funny, thoughtful, oddly specific—we want to hear it.

Then join us on Stargazer’s lower patio for bookish conversation cards, little activities, and space to build your reading list from everyone’s recommendations. Talk favorite characters, compare notes, and make a case for the book you keep telling everyone to read.

Come solo, bring a friend, or catch up with familiar faces. You don’t need to finish a book—or consider yourself a big reader—to join us.

Tuesday, November 10 · 7–10 PM
Stargazer · Lower Patio

Hot cocoa + other drink deals are in the works—full details coming soon! Drinks purchased separately.

Pick your own book. We’ll make the plans.
