Mark Twain Library

Take time to escape into the pages of a great book while enjoying the peaceful surroundings of the Mark Twain Library! Join us for the Quiet Chapter Book Club, where book lovers gather to read in quiet companionship. Come for an hour, settle into a cozy spot with a book of your choice, soak in the tranquility, and let the world fade away.
During the final 10 minutes, you’re welcome to mingle, share thoughts on your latest reads, and enjoy light refreshments. No assigned books, no pressure—just a relaxing hour of literary escape and community.
Come for the quiet, stay for the stories. We can’t wait to see you there!
