Welcome to pages & Pajamas book club
Reading is a small pleasure and a great way to practice ever-important self care. It’s even more fun to grab a cozy blanket, light a candle, pour your favorite drink, get into your favorite pajamas, and make it an experience. That’s what
Pages & Pajamas Book Club is all about: giving yourself space for relaxing time to read, however that looks for you.
Pages & Pajamas Book Club is free to join and low-commitment. We read one book per month and have a meeting
(in-person and via Zoom) to casually discuss the book the last week of each month.
This is a no-judgment, no-pressure space for readers to get together, talk, and build connections. You don’t even need to read the book to be a part of the club! Feel free to join the conversation and come to our meetings ready to discuss books and meet some lovely fellow book lovers.
