Black In Denver Book Club

Black In Denver Book Club is a community of Black readers and writers in Denver, CO. We come together to connect and discuss books across a variety of genres—with a special love for stories by BIPOC authors. This book club is also a subgroup under the "Black In Denver" network on Facebook. Like other subgroups in that network, this book club is committed to building enriching community in the Denver area based on our shared interest.

How It Works

Book Club Meetings:

• Meetings are the last Wednesday of the month from 6:30–8:30 PM at Lighthouse Writers Workshop. RSVP under the Meeting tab or our Facebook event page.
• Community Snacks are welcome and encouraged—if you’re bringing something, please list it under the Club Messages tab.
• For an engaging discussion, and so we won't spoil it for you, please read as much of the book as you can.
• Want to know what we’re reading? Check the Currently Reading tab.
• Want to rate/ comment on a book we previously read? Check the Books We've Read tab.

Book Selection:

• Have a book suggestion? Add it to the Books We Want to Read tab.
• On the last Monday of the month, we’ll randomly choose 5 books from that list & create a voting Poll.
• The winning book will be announced at the end of our Book Club meeting.

Community Guidelines

We’re building a safe, welcoming, and fun space for Black readers and writers in Denver. Help us keep it that way by following these simple guidelines:
