## Caption

Have you heard of a silent book club? They’re popping up all over the country and there are several here in Portland.

It’s like any other book club where a group of people comes together to talk about books, sort of. In a silent book club, you BYOB — bring your own book, of course.

Whatever book you want, or you can buy one if your book club takes place in a bookstore ( spokeandwordbooks ), like mine did. Then you sit in companionable silence with others and read for an hour.

It’s not as terrifying or awkward as it might sound.

Read more about this cozy experience at the link in our bio.
