Silent Book Club Chichester (Chichester)

Book club

Silent Book Club Chichester is a relaxed and pressure-free environment for readers to enjoy their books together without the need for assigned readings or discussions. For the first half hour chat and share what you're reading, grab a drink, then commit to an hour of uninterrupted reading. Socialize for the last half hour if you choose. There's no obligation to engage in conversation, just enjoy the quiet camaraderie if you prefer. Meeting on the first Wednesday of the month from 2 to 4 pm and starting September 2026 on the third Wednesday of the month from 6-8 pm at Robin's Nest Coffee Shop, 5 Baffin Court, PO19 1UA.

Rob (Worthing)

Seeking a book club

We ga=have recently started a book group in Worthing that meets about once every four weeks. Our next book in The Calculation of Volume by Solvej Balle. It's not a maths text book but a thoughtful novel about a woman who gets stuck in the 18th November. A sort of Groundhog Day, but more thoughtful. We are nest meeting on Monday 13th April at 7 pm.

This is a fascinating account of a woman who is stuck in time. Tara wakes up one morning to find that she is reliving the same day, the 18th Novelber to be exact. A gripping account about how we iive our lives and what we take for granted. It's a bit scifi, a bit philosophy and beautifully written.

Matt (Haywards Heath)

Seeking a gaming group

Good morrow, adventurers. I’m Matt, 44M in Haywards Heath. I’ve set up two groups to play my first campaign, both have fallen apart due to general flakiness, so now I’m seeking a table in HH to join. I won’t need TOO much handholding but I will be learning. I’ll be prepared, reliable and as silly/serious as the table requires. Let’s chat and see what we can set up. WhatsApp if it’s easier: 07787246789

Annette (Chichester)

Seeking a book club

I’m a retired teacher and a lifelong book lover — a self-confessed bookaholic who usually has at least one fiction and one non-fiction book on the go. I’m an introvert and neurodivergent, and I really value quiet, low-pressure spaces where people can just enjoy being themselves. I have started a Silent Book Club group in Chichester. The idea is simple: bring your own book, read quietly together for a while, and chat afterwards only if you feel like it. There’s no set reading, no pressure to talk, and no “book club homework”. It’s very much aimed at people who love reading but don’t always enjoy traditional book groups — especially introverts, neurodivergent readers, and anyone who likes calm, companionable silence.

Hildy (Chichester)

Seeking a book club

I mostly read romance and love stories with strong chemistry and emotional depth. I’m also into dark romance sometimes, especially books with complex characters. I’d be happy to meet up about once a month. I’m open to making friends through the group and having easy, fun conversations about books. I’d love to get recommendations, share favourites, and also try books I might not usually pick for myself.

Elliot (Haywards Heath)

Seeking a gaming group

Hey folks — I’m Elliot, a decent DM who’s here for big laughs, big moments, and games that actually move. I run a welcoming table with clear boundaries, strong player agency, and combats that feel like scenes from a film. I’m looking for local players to start something. If you’re kind, communicative, and show up — we’ll get on. Also more than happy to play, I rarely get the chance! Familiar with 5e rules, not played much with the 24 rework yet
