WEDNESDAY, April 30TH - 18:30 ONWARDS
April is here! The first quarter of 2025 is over and we'd love to hear what you've been reading this year.
Join this meetup and tell us about the books that have left an impression on you, and you feel are worth talking about.
This will be a super-casual meet & greet where new (and ongoing) members can feel welcomed.
If you're a new joiner and would like to get to know other members better, show up and join the conversation!
Feel free to bring books in any language, meetups like these usually uncover some fantastic gems that other members would have never come across on their own.

babel by r.f. kuang
WEDNESDAY, may 28TH - 18:30 ONWARDS
This May join us in reading "Babel" by novelist R.F. Kuang.
A dark academic fantasy set in an alternate 19th-century England, where language and translation hold magical power.
The story follows students at Oxford’s prestigious translation institute, where knowledge is both a tool and a weapon.
Through its richly detailed world, the novel explores themes of language, colonialism, identity, and resistance, blending history and fantasy in a thought-provoking way.
