Silent Book Club Event for Grown-Ups - FREE EXPERIENCE!

About This Event

THURSDAY, MAY 28TH / 6-7:30 PM / SILENT BOOK CLUB @ NEW BOOK JOY'S NEW BOOKTIQUE IN BROOKFIELD
Local Readers (GROWN-UPS) - Join us for our VERY 1ST FREE SILENT BOOK CLUB Experience at our NEW New Book Joy Booktique in Brookfield! We'll enjoy an hour of quiet reading time together from 6-7 PM, then there will be an optional 30 minute soirée after the event from 7-7:30 PM so that readers can have the opportunity mix and mingle with other local Brookfield / Chicagoland book lovers to talk about what they're reading & GET AN EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT if they choose to shop our curated selection of books and reading pairings afterwards (talk about some good self-care)!

P.S. Our in-store events are ALWAYS BRING YOUR OWN BEVERAGE, so feel free to bring some sips to enjoy while you read as well (we'll have a few mocktails / NA options available for sale, but encourage attendees to bring their favorites too)... SWEET 'N SALTY SNACKS WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE before or during the event as well!
