Silent Reading Club @ Padeffke
Silent Reading Club is a gathering for people who enjoy reading together in public. All books and all readers are welcome.
Bring whatever you’re currently reading: a novel, poetry collection, essay, comic, academic text, e-reader, or anything else you’d like to spend a quiet hour with.
There’s no entrance fee, but since we’re meeting at a café, please order at least one item and don’t bring outside food or drinks 🙂
Please RSVP “yes” only if you’re planning to come, so we have a realistic idea of the group size.

🐧 How to find us
If this is your first time joining, look for the group with the plush penguin on the table. Feel free to come over and say hi!
If you check in through Luma, you’ll also have access to the latest event information in case anything changes.
No quizzes, no pressure, no assigned books; just a group of book-loving people sharing a quiet hour of reading.
