Come hang out with fellow book lovers at a cozy cafe! Each month, we’ll feature a new book, but there’s no pressure to read it. We’ll sip, snack, and chat about everything we’ve been reading lately.

The Bookish Club is a relaxed, no-pressure book club for anyone who loves books, warm drinks, and great conversation.
We meet on the third Saturday of each month at Blackberry Market in Argenta from 1–2 PM.

Each month, we feature a new and popular book (think BookTok favorites!) for discussion, but reading it is totally optional. Members are encouraged to share other books they've been reading and their thoughts—whether they loved or hated them.

With bookish games, fun activities, and plenty of good food, The Bookish Club is all about connecting with fellow book lovers and finding your next favorite read. Whether you're here for the books, the coffee, or to meet your new bookish besties, everyone is welcome!

May's highlighted book is Come and Get It by Kiley Reid.
