The Well Read Book Club meets every other month in Chicago.
Every other month, we gather in Chicago for a full event. Themed decor, guided discussion, and our signature fan cast where we vote on who would play the characters. It’s readers coming together after finishing the same story, ready to share what they thought. In the months between, we keep reading together on Fable, so there is always a Well Read Book Pick waiting for you.
Every event is built around the book.
There’s always a fan cast where we vote on who would play the main characters. Discussion questions on the tables help guide casual and fun conversation. If you want to analyze themes, go for it. If you want to spiral about the love interest, also valid.
Printed name tags and thoughtful details. A little structure so you don’t feel awkward walking in alone. Most women come solo. Many leave with plans to see each other again.
Capacity is limited. Tickets are paid in advance. Once you’re in, you’ll receive all the details leading up to the event.
The goal is simple: show up, read the book, be in the room.
“I came home and continued to rave about the book, all the gals, and the care you put into it. Thank you for creating such a magical way to gather!”
