This story is lovely. And from it I found out about silentbook.club so tempted to start a chapter! 📚

A story from Reddit: I accidentally started a 'Silent Book Club' at my local coffee shop&10;So, here's a funny little story about how I unintentionally created a new social group in my town.A few weeks ago, I was at my favorite coffee shop, deeply engrossed in a novel.&10;An older gentleman approached me and asked what I was reading. We had a brief but lovely chat about books. The next week, I was there again with a different book. The same man showed up, this time with his own book. We nodded at each other, smiled, and went back to our reading. Week three: I arrive to find the man already there. He's brought a friend. They're both reading silently. I join them at their table, and we all read in comfortable silence for an hour. Fast forward to yesterday. I walk into the coffee shop, and there are TWELVE people scattered around, all silently reading books.&10;The barista grins at me and says, "Your club is getting pretty popular!" Apparently, word had spread about the "Silent Book Club" that meets every Wednesday at 4 PM. People just show up, read whatever they want, and occasionally chat during coffee refill breaks.I've accidentally created the most introvert-friendly book club ever, and I'm happy about it.Has anyone else ever started something unintentionally that took on a life of its own?
