About Rise & Shine Book Club
Rise & Shine Book Club is a gentle, inclusive reading community created for people seeking connection, calm, and meaningful moments with books. We believe reading can be a way to slow down, take a breath, and reconnect with yourself and others in a steady, supportive way.
Our book selections are chosen with care. We read stories and novels that are sensitive to abuse survivors while still being engaging, comforting, and enjoyable. The focus is on books that feel approachable and immersive, offering a sense of ease rather than pressure.
We meet bimonthly to give everyone plenty of time to read at their own pace. There is no expectation to finish the book, no pressure to participate in discussion, and no requirement to attend every meeting. We understand that life can be unpredictable and that some days are harder than others. Listening quietly, sharing a small thought, or simply being present are all welcome.
Rise & Shine Book Club is not therapy or a support group. It is a low-pressure space to relax, detach, and redefine what connection can look like. This is a place where reading becomes an invitation to rest, reflect, and enjoy gentle community, exactly as you are.
