What is Bookup Culture?

Bookup Cultlure is a reading party where you read alone, in the company of other readers.

šŸ“š This is a BYOBook event

We donā€™t choose books for you. Thereā€™s no set number of pages you have to finish. You choose your own reading adventure!

The Rundown

6pm - Settle in & Intros

6:30 - Silent Reading Time (not silent scrolling time šŸ¤³)

7:30 - Share thoughts about what you read

7:45 - Closing & Mingle

Minimal socializing, plenty of reading. šŸ™‚ā€ā†•ļø

Whose invited?

šŸŒˆ Bookup Culture is a sex-positive, queer-led space, so LGBTQIA+ & the folks who love them are welcome to join. Aspiring readers & introverts are especially welcome.

Bookup Culture Guidelines:

  • Respect pronouns of all guests in the space. Get comfortable asking for pronouns rather than assuming them.
  • Communicate with care. Guests should engage in respectful and courteous communication at all times, avoiding insults, harassment, or demeaning language. Homophobia, transphobia, and racism are not tolerated in the space.
  • Keep phone use to a minimum. During ā€œsilent reading timeā€, guests are encouraged to put their phones away and on ā€œDo Not Disturbā€.
