Today, we had the pleasure of hosting the very first Chit Chatting Books Book Club meeting at the SpeakUpSis Bookshelf, and it was an absolute joy! A huge thank you to Tysheka Nekole Wright for joining us in person and Deborah Jefferson for connecting with us virtually. The discussion was engaging, insightful, and exactly what a book club should be, a space to share, learn, and connect.

It’s never about how many people show up; it’s about who shows up and the meaningful conversations we have together. And today? It was perfect.

We’re excited for what’s ahead! Mark your calendars for our next book club meeting on March 22nd from 1–3 PM. If you love great books and even better conversations, we’d love to have you join us! Sign up speakupsis.com/bookshelf.
