About the event

Join us as we walk the trails of RTP while listening to audiobooks! After, feel free to join us at Drift Coffee Shop & Kitchen RTP for an optional discussion about the book and a chance to meet new people.

This month’s suggested audiobook is Gay the Pray Away by Natalie Naudus (available on Hoopla). If you have already read it, or would prefer another title, we suggest: Queer as Folklore by Sacha Coward (available on Hoopla) or My Darling Dreadful Thing by Johanna Van Veen (available on Hoopla).

This event is for book lovers, the book-curious, people who haven’t been able to make time to read (or listen) for fun, introverts, extroverts, exercisers, caregivers pushing strollers, (leashed) dog owners, groups, singles, nature lovers, and multi-taskers!

All paces welcome, please take breaks when you need them. We know it is easy to get transported to another world when listening to your book. Be sure to stay alert as we will be crossing roads and may encounter uneven pavement.

While attendance is free, please register here to receive reminders and stay in the know for any updates. Free public parking is located on the deck just across the street at 3150 Elion Drive. We will meet at 3151 Elion Drive Durham, NC 27713.

Genre of the Month Book Club

12 months, 12 genres, 12 chances to broaden your reading horizons! Welcome to the Genre of the Month Book Club! Each month, we explore a different (sub)genre, and you choose to read any book that fits that theme--no assigned reading here! Then, join us on the second Wednesday of every month at Boxyard RTP. Grab yourself a drink or snack as we discuss what we read and the genre as a whole. The book club meets outside, so dress for the weather! Our table is located next to RTP Uncorked and the elevator, near the dog park. If you've found a table reserved for book club, you're in the right place! Click on one of the months below to see what our members chose to read! January: Self Help February: Romantasy March: Satire April: Poetry May: Cozy Mystery June: Epistolary July: Cyberpunk August: Coming of Age/Bildungsroman September: Banned Classic October: Gothic Horror November: History December: Short Story Collection/Anthology Questions?
