Books & Lighthouse is a small, cozy book club for anyone who believes stories can help us find our way—through tough moments, big questions, or just everyday life.

We meet once a month, in person, on the last Sunday to chat about a book, share thoughts, and enjoy some good company. It’s low-pressure, welcoming, and all about connection—whether you’re a bookworm or just dipping your toe back into reading.

Each book we choose will shine in its own way—some bold, some quiet, some joyful or deep—but all worth talking about.

A few things to know:

• We ask that members be 21 or older—after that, age doesn’t matter, only your curiosity.

• You’re totally welcome even if you don’t finish the book.

• We’re here for honest, kind, and respectful discussion.

• Everyone’s thoughts, feelings, and interpretations are valid. We listen without interrupting, judging, or dominating the conversation.

• We may not always agree—and that’s okay. Curiosity and kindness go a long way.

Whether you love getting lost in a story or just want to connect with thoughtful, fun people in D.C., we’d love to have you with us.
