A gathering for people who tend to buy books faster than they actually read them. We are meeting at Café Blattgold for a midweek pulse check on our respective reading lists without the homework-style pressure of a traditional book club. Whether you are deep into a dense biography or just finishing a graphic novel, this is a low-stakes evening for Moabit bibliophiles to talk shop. The goal is to share a few honest recommendations, debate the merits of physical versus digital, and enjoy a coffee or a glass of wine before the Wednesday evening slump sets in.
Event plan
- 7:00 PMThe Bookmark PhaseArrivals and beverage acquisition. We will spend the first bit identifying who is here for the books and who is just a regular, followed by low-pressure introductions.
- 7:25 PMCurrent Reads & Guilty PleasuresA casual round-robin sharing what is currently on our nightstands, including the books we have been 'meaning to finish' for the last six months.
- 8:05 PMThe Moabit Literary DriftA deeper, unstructured dive into specific genres or authors, or perhaps just a collective vent about overly long prologues.
- 8:40 PMShelf Talk & Graceful DeparturesSwapping final recommendations and slowly drifting back out toward Lehrter Straße as the cafe starts to wind down.
