Our cofounder met @mychal3ts.bsky.social yesterday! 🤩

book exchange at thursday's kahala mall meetup! it'd be nice if you'd take your unclaimed books. if you leave them, i'll take them to the little free library in makiki district park. it was empty after proof last month. hopefully these books are finding loving homes! see you at 6 thurs evening!

To library workers: Your care, your open doors, your quiet guidance create more than collections. You create safe spaces, dreams, and futures. You defend the right to read freely. You remind the world that knowledge should be for everyone. Thank you for making libraries not just places, but homes.

“I have ebooks with more spine than Congress!” “So bad even the introverts are here.” These are our people. #wewillnotbesilent

In April, we’ll be celebrating our one year @silentbookclub.bsky.social anniversary (and yes there will be some sweet treats at our two sessions this month to mark the occasion!) 🎉 Join us tonight from 6pm at @topshambrewery.bsky.social or from 6pm on Tuesday 15th April at The Hour Glass Inn 🤫

Trump says libraries are unnecessary. We disagree. This latest executive order fires 75 federal employees and ends funding for 125,000 libraries that serve more than 1.2 billion patrons in person and even more online. Here are 7 things you can do right now 🧵 #wewillnotbesilent #showupforlibraries

"If you've got an audiobook just bring your earphones, but you make great friends, all like-minded people, and it's absolutely brilliant. I wish we met more often." Glorious @silentbookclub.bsky.social love! bbc.com/news/article... (via @bbcworldservice.bsky.social)

I went to @silentbookclub.bsky.social aka Introvert Happy Hour. Read whatever book you want to for an hour. Socialize before/after if you like. Often held in cool places. Highly recommend. Find a chapter: silentbook.club #reading #booksky #silentbookclub #bookclub #libraries #read #books

Continuing my #challenge to identify one #positive thing each day Today my local Silent Book Club held our monthly meeting. Everyone is so kind and we get to know people from many walks of life. I love building a community of readers 📚💙 #resist #reading #booksky #silentbookclub #findjoy #books

Just a bunch of nice bookish people, including new faces, at Sunday's meetup at Zippy's in Kahala. Thanks for hosting, Gina! #silentbookclub

Shop small. Support local. Boycott Bezos and the billionaires.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

I've just learned that there's a Silent Book Club at a brewery in my town and I'm kinda into it. You get a drink, read silently for an hour, then the next hour you can chat with people if you want. Sounds kinda awesome TBH.
