What Silent Book Club is Reading: February 2021

What Silent Book Club is Reading: February 2021

One of the things I look forward to every month is the Columbus, Ohio chapter of Silent Book Club meeting. Everyone brings their own book and reads together quietly for an hour, then we all nerd out about books afterward. If you're in the area, you should come hang out with us!

And, for the foreseeable future, you can hang out with us even if you’re not in the area since we’re meeting virtually! We meet on the second Tuesday of every month at 6:30pm via Zoom.

Here's what folks are reading this month:

  • Rage: Narcissism, Patriarchy, and the Culture of Terrorism by Abigail R. Esman

  • The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab

  • Don't Sleep, There Are Snakes: Life and Language in the Amazonian Jungle by Daniel L. Everett

  • The Underground Railroad by Colson Whitehead

  • Homer’s Odyssey

  • All the Crooked Saints by Maggie Stiefvater

  • Everything is Illuminated by Jonathan Safran For

  • Maps and Legends: Reading and Writing Along the Borderlands by Michael Chabon

  • Ethics by Baruch Spinoza

  • The Great Depression and the New Deal: A Very Short Introduction by Eric Rauchway

  • Working on a Song: The Lyrics of HADESTOWN by Anaïs Mitchell

  • American Gods by Neil Gaiman

  • Ring Shout by P. Djèlí Clark

  • We Free the Stars by Hafsah Faizal

  • The Floating Admiral by The Detection Club

There are Silent Book Club chapters throughout the US and several around the world, so if you're not in Columbus, OH, check the events on the SBC website to find one near you. And regardless of where you are, we’d love for you to join us virtually. Event info will be posted in the Silent Book Club - Columbus Facebook group.

In the meantime, I hope you’ll connect meaningfully with book nerd communities online, including the Silent Book Club Facebook group. (Note: the general Silent Book Club Facebook group and the Silent Book Club - Columbus Facebook group are two different groups.)
