If you’re a frustrated reader, the Silent Book Club might be for you.
SBC is a global phenomenon with nearly 2,000 chapters in 55 countries. Unlike conventional book clubs, where prescribed readings and discussion occurs, the silent book club encourages some socialising, followed by quiet time dedicated to reading whatever the reader chooses, finishing with talking about what has been read. The main aim is for all attendees to incorporate some more reading time in their lives.
The Glen Innes chapter of SBC is starting this coming week. The plan is to meet on the first and third Thursday of the month at a designated venue. On the 7th August, the meeting place will be the New England Motor Lodge at 6.30pm and on the 21st August at the Great Central Hotel at 6.30pm.
If your interest is piqued, more information about the Glen Innes Silent Book Club can be found on their Facebook page.
