From the organizer

Join us for some reading and companioning on what is low-key the area’s best patio and high-key has the best pub grub since Stubby’s. (The strawberry habanero boneless wings will change your life. 👩‍🍳💋) See you on the 19th! 📚🍻 New to Companionably Quiet Reading? Here’re the deets: 📖 You’re of course free to read the book we’ve selected for June’s book club (TBD), but you’re also welcome to bring any book you’d like. 🗣️ While we hope those who want to get a few chapters in will be able to do so, there’s no expectation that we are totally silent. This is still a social event! Feel free to chat any time—just remain respectful to those who wish to read. 🧶 “Reading” is in the title, but knitters, stitchers, crossword puzzlers, journalers, sketchers, whittlers, and all manner of other hobbyists are encouraged to do their thing as well.
