Oh I'm so happy to find this post!! I saw your original note but then it fell down the scroll on my phone and when I went to find it again I couldn't resurface it despite many different attempts at searching (I even did my own note asking if anyone else had seen it 😄) I'm over in Kemptown so possibly the Brighton one is closer to me than the one over in Hove (though can't tell for sure if it's still going from their socials). I don't know how easily I'd be able to convince my other half to keep the kids occupied while I swan off out of the house to for an hour and a half of silent book reading (could try to pitch it as an investment in my patience and overall togetherness as a parent?!) But the concept has my 100% approval - what a fantastic idea!
Ha! My detective skills are totally rubbish tbh - just found you via Katy Wheatley’s comments. Thankfully Substack is like a delightful rabbit warren where all the burrows happily converge at different points (or at least the nice corners of Substack I frequent). Hope to make it along at some point - be great to meet more Brighton-based Substackers irl 😊
Thank you for talking about this! I’ve just joined the London one 😊
oh yay!

Vicki! Bless you & your detective skills 🕵🏼♀️
fingers crossed on childcare - it would be magic to have you read with us 🤗

I love this! There is not one in my town, so, hmmm … {wheels are turning}
YES! Consider this your sign ⚡️
Wish there was a Silent Book Club near me *sighs*
There may be! I included a link where you can search by your town on the map :) or maybe start your own ??
I did check and there was none :( I’m too introvert to start one or I can push somebody else to start it 😂
haha! that sounds like a good plan :)
Thanks for the love! So great to have you with us, its a such a lovely thing to do :-)
See you at the next one friend!
Yes please!⚡️
