𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐚 𝐒𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥?
It's the perfect blend of community and quiet – a gathering where book lovers come together to read in peaceful, shared silence. Think of it as the social experience of being around fellow readers without the pressure of book clubs or assigned reading.
𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐈𝐭 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬
𝐀𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞 & 𝐆𝐞𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 (𝟐:𝟎𝟎 - 𝟐:𝟏𝟓𝐏𝐌)
Order your favorite drink from Cambridge Market Café downstairs – coffee, tea, wine, beer, mocktail, soda – and bring it up to The Mustard Seed. Settle into a cozy spot with whatever you're currently reading.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 (𝟐:𝟏𝟓-𝟑:𝟎𝟎 𝐏𝐌)
For 45 minutes, we'll enjoy peaceful reading time together. Bring any book you're enjoying – fiction, non-fiction, poetry, graphic novels – or listen to your audiobook with headphones. No talking, just the shared experience of being immersed in stories alongside fellow book lovers.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐎𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 (𝟑:𝟎𝟎 𝐏𝐌 𝐨𝐧𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝)
When the silent time ends, the social part begins! You can:
◆ Chat about what you're reading with others
◆ Browse the bookstore and make recommendations to each other
◆ Shop our wine and book pairing suggestions for your next great read
◆ Gather your books for a recommended reading list photo op
Or, stay silent and continue reading if you're in the zone, or head on your way.
𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐀𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐚, 𝐍𝐨 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬
No assigned books. No required discussions. No expectations. Just come be silent or social – or both.
Bring whatever you're reading and we'll provide the cozy atmosphere. The perfect way to start your weekend!
