Happening This Month

Team Elinor or Team Marianne? Join us for our weekly meeting as we dig into the first half of this month’s pick. Coffee, pastries, and plenty of opinions on Willoughby guaranteed.

This year's party theme is "Gothic Reads by Candlelight." Celebrate spooky season with an evening of eerie short stories read aloud by candlelight. We’ll be sharing excerpts from The Yellow Wallpaper and Carmilla, with a seasonal cocktail menu to match. Costumes encouraged but not required.

The votes are in! Find out which book won the ballot, pick up a reading schedule for the month, and help us kick things off with a first-chapter chat.

No book required for this one! Join us for a relaxed happy hour where members old and new can mingle, swap reading recommendations, and get to know the faces behind the book talk. First round of appetizers is on us.

Our monthly discussion group. TBA

Ring in the season with our favorite night of the year! Enjoy cocoa, mulled wine, and festive treats, then join our book-themed white elephant exchange (wrap up a favorite read and see what you go home with). Ugly holiday sweaters are strongly encouraged, and we’ll toast to another year of great books and even better friends.

No pressure, no homework, just great books and even better company. Find an event that fits your schedule and come see what Story Book is all about!

Frequently Asked Questions

Nope, Story Club is completely free to join. You’ll just need to get your own copy of the book, whether that’s from the library, a used bookstore, or your favorite e-reader.

Absolutely, the more the merrier. Friends, sisters, coworkers, neighbors: if they love a good story, they’re welcome here.

We meet at The Reading Nook Café on Maple Street, tucked into the back room with the comfy armchairs. Check our events calendar for the latest times, since we occasionally switch things up for special gatherings.
