Hot Book of the Month Club @ Solid State Books on 14 St.

Led by Solid State superfan and bookish newsletter writer Tara B (of Mood Reader by Tara B), this book club takes on the zeitgeist—the buzzy debuts, the books on every shortlist, the long-awaited follow-ups, the novels your group chat won't shut up about. We mostly read fiction but are open to memoirs and non-fiction, if they really penetrate the conversation.

Join us if you want to actually read the book before you have to pretend you have.

Monthly meetings on the fourth Thursday at 7:30pm at Solid State 14th Street.
