How it works
Hemingways Silent Reading

Come as you are.
Bring a book.

A little time set aside to read together, quietly. No assigned book, no homework, no pressure to finish a chapter.

The simple idea

Reading together, at your own pace.

01

Bring your own book

Whatever you’re reading is welcome. A novel, memoir, poetry, or a book you have been meaning to start.

02

Settle in

Meet other book lovers, find a comfortable spot and enjoy a quiet stretch of reading.

03

Stay for a chat

Conversation is welcome around the reading time, but sharing or discussing your book is always optional.
