"I don't read as much as I'd like to!" -Everyone

Are you tired of the algorithm dictating every moment of your life? Do you miss the days when you'd chance upon a dusty paperback in your aunt's house and lose yourself for hours in a story you never planned to read? 

We want you to invite serendipity back into your life and choose a book that might not necessarily be on that Summer bestseller list this year by perusing our shelves and stumbling upon something great, weird, or both. OR you can go to a local bookstore like Porter Square Books or Narrative and ask a bookseller for a recommendation! Or just bring that library book that's due soon.

Then we'll all sit and read silently together. No checking emails or texts. Just distraction-free reading with a little time built in at the end for anyone who wants to talk about what they found!
