Secret Book Society (S.B.S.) members are young adults/teens diving head first into books and the taboos that make “book banning” a recurring theme in every generation. While we may occasionally read a book that has found itself on a nationwide ban listing, we will typically read interesting titles that simply cover issues that often get ignored.

Month after month we simply hope to try to wrap our heads around why people find books to be so “dangerous” even in 2024. Members of the SBS generally subscribe to the belief that the more insidious and dangerous thing is that people are no longer bothering to read, share, or passionately talk about books.

Book club participation comes in two parts:

* First there is the functional KIT that you receive! Each monthly kit includes the months book club selection plus several surprising gifts.

* The second element of the book club is the actual MEETING, which you may attend in-person or online via a discussion board (which can be accessed at your leisure).

- Space within our tiny shop is limited so naturally, so you will want to RSVP fast if being in person for the meeting is important to you.

- You do not have to purchase the book or the book box directly from our store. If you prefer to access the book through a local library or some other method, that's perfectly fine. But you do need to RSVP for the monthly book group meeting and pay our $5 honorarium which is a positive contribution towards the cost of drinks, pizza, and snacks.

People outside of the KC area may choose to participate in book club. In this instance their boxes are mailed to them and they are given access to the online discussion board, Naturally they will incur an additional shipping fee.

We look forward to months of dynamic discussion and developing close bonds with book club members that choose to return, expanding the capacity of their understanding and their hearts. We understand there may be disagreements for different roles we have each walked down, but we’re thrilled to offer a meeting ground for civil discourse.

Please Note: Purchasing the Seven Stories Book Box does not automatically RSVP you for the in-person event! If you purchase the Book Box, we will reach out with a seperate link to RSVP.
