What makes us super fun, and unlike other book clubs, is that you can bring your last-read book or simply any book you would like to discuss with the members. The BYOB Club has been featured in publications like The Hindu, The Times of India, Hindustan Times, Europe1, and many more. We have chapters in Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Surat, Hyderabad and Pune, and are looking to start chapters in more cities.

At most of our meets, you can bring ANY book you like, but we sometimes do meets with specific themes, or discuss one book or author. It's all a lot of fun. We meet at cafes, parks and homes. Homes are our favourite places to meet. Age no bar, you just *literally* have to bring a book. No tickets, ever. Promise. Registration is compulsory for most meets though. Spammers, self promoters and trolls will be immediately BLOCKED. Email: nidhi@bringyourownbook.org

[close] "For Indians /non Indians/Earthlings/Aliens, who have a zeal to read and are passionate about books" says the Creator of this group :) To add to it, this group is for just about any gentle, non-argumentative soul who is interested in anything Indian. Make sure you bring along a good sense of humor ;) and a broad mind. This is a democratic group,that wants to discuss books, make friends and basically just have fun. Moderators are here just to do some dirty jobs, so feel free to suggest any ideas you might have to improve this group. We started off as an open group, but then seemed to attract all sorts of rude, abusive disruptive elements. So with great deliberations we decided to make it a private group attempting to screen in those who are genuinely interested, and not those who join for promoting their work by hook or by crook, and those who are bent upon stalking vulnerable individuals. Accepting you here shows our trust in you, and you may reciprocate being an active, friendly member ;-) We are a peace loving group and would like to stay that way! Authors are welcome, but please try to stick to the "promotions" folder if you want to promote your book. If you are interested in answering questions about the creative process of writing and the anxious experience of publishing , there is a separate thread for you :) We have a facebook page too! If you know of Book-a-holic Indians who aren't aware of this group, feel free to spread the word by 'like'-ing the page :)
