Headphones & Handicraft Audiobook Club

* *Note: $5 registration fee can be used as a credit toward a purchase in-store. The credit expires the night of book club.**

Sidetrack Bookshop is a mission-driven bookstore, which means (in part) that we are committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive space for people of all identities. In order to maintain our welcoming and inclusive space in the context of what we hope will be a lively and productive book club discussion, we have developed the following house rules.

By attending a book club meeting, you agree to the following:

1. Share the floor: Be sure to let everyone talk and express their thoughts on the book. If you feel like you're talking a lot, you probably are! Invite others to speak.
2. Be respectful: We'll no doubt have differing opinions. Seek to understand first, then to be understood. Check your privilege, and take special care with others who have lived experience differing from your own.
3. Comments or behavior that demean a specific person, identity, or culture will not be tolerated.

Book club hosts will keep these house rules in mind and will redirect you or the conversation as a whole if we feel they aren't being honored. We also reserve the right to ask an attendee to leave if we feel they're contributing to an unwelcome space.

This one is for all of us introverts! Join us for our monthly Headphones & Handicraft Audio Book Club. Bring headphones, your current audiobook, and something to keep your hands busy (knitting! coloring books! embroidery)! Enjoy a little social interaction and browsing before settling in with your book and some "me" time.

We will have some chairs, but participants are free to bring their own small portable chairs. Registration is capped due to space constraints at the store. Once sold out, feel free to join the waitlist and we will let you know if space opens up!
