After the holiday rush is over, join the Champaign County Library on December 27th at 6:30PM as they try out a new idea in book clubs - A Silent Book Club!
At a silent book club, the first few minutes are spent greeting other members and helping yourself to provided refreshments. Then, spread out throughout the library and read a book you've brought or one you've found on the shelves. All kinds of books are welcome - ebooks, physical books, audiobooks or any other reading material.
After forty-five minutes of reading time, Silent Book Club members will come back to the meeting room to chat about books in general and good things they’ve been reading specifically. After thirty minutes or so of discussion, the meeting is adjourned. What a perfect way to wind-down from the hustle and bustle!
