Totnes Silent Book Club
The Totnes Silent Book Club is a new chapter in the international Silent Book Club movement, hosted by Anna Selby.
Rooted in the ethos of pleasure activism - our gatherings offer a space for readers, introverts, deep thinkers, and anyone seeking a restorative pause in a loud world.
There’s no assigned reading, no pressure to speak – just bring a book, settle in and enjoy reading in companionable silence. Together, we celebrate the radical joy of slowing down, reading for pleasure, and connecting in quietude.
All books, all people, and all ways of reading are welcome.
We meet on the third Thursday of each month (excluding December), at the back of The Bruto Lounge in Totnes, 6 – 8pm
You can just turn up, but it is helpful to know numbers, so if you’d like to, please register on Eventbrite here or email totnessbc@gmail.com so I know to expect you!
Feel free to also bring any books you’ve finished and would like to put on the bookswap shelves.
Silent Book Club is a global community of readers with nearly 2,000 chapters in 60+ countries. There's no assigned reading — it's bring your own book BYOB. More than a million members gather in person, online, and in destinations around the world to read together and swap stories.
