The city&#8217;s best literary spots and series now meet in coffeehouses, gardens, theaters, and even a vintage VW bus. The Los Angeles Times has rounded up <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/articles\/grab-book-drink-l-literary-191506275.html\">LA book clubs<\/a> that turn happy hour into a literary event, and several picks below regularly sell out.

It&#8217;s a good example of how theatrical these nights can get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Where:<\/strong> Venues change by event. Third-party listings include The Ebell of Los Angeles, Moss Theater, and Writers Guild Theater, so confirm on each event page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>When:<\/strong> Several events a month. Check the calendar for dates and start times.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Best For:<\/strong> Date nights with a big-name author, plus fans of nonfiction, politics, and literary fiction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Know Before You Go:<\/strong> Many dates sell out. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/e\/writers-bloc-and-la-material-present-jacob-weisberg-and-julia-turner-tickets-2000540707108\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">One Eventbrite listing<\/a> notes limited parking and recommends rideshare.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>How to Book:<\/strong> Pick a date on the <a href=\"https:\/\/writersblocpresents.com\/main\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Writers Bloc Presents calendar<\/a>, which links to each ticket page.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why We&#8217;d Book It:<\/strong> A live interview lets you hear an author&#8217;s voice, pauses, and asides that never make it onto the page.

Silver Lake Reading Club<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Silver Lake Reading Club is social silent reading: members read quietly together, then talk. Its site describes &#8220;an intentional community built around stories.&#8221; The club has since added memberships, a magazine, writing workshops, reading retreats, and a free Youth Reading Club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The founder frames it as a &#8220;third space,&#8221; and 50 people signed up for the first meeting, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theeastsiderla.com\/neighborhoods\/silver_lake\/quiet-time-reading-the-silver-lake-reading-club\/article_aa67ec58-d1f0-11ee-9f60-2f969047a536.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">according to The Eastsider<\/a>. The Eastsider described a table of books for sale, popcorn, tea, coffee, wine and beer for purchase, and stretch breaks.

Guests read an entire short book together through read-alouds, solo reading, and discussion. Then they share a dinner with a menu inspired by the novel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A married couple founded it after hosting a book club at home, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grainofsalt.la\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">according to grain of salt<\/a>. One brings an event-production background, and the other is a lifelong Angeleno, personal chef, and co-founder of LA Cookbook Club. The Los Angeles Times featured one immersive read-along with cocktails, book signings, and scent pairings at P.F. Candle Co.&#8217;s Echo Park flagship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Where:<\/strong> Partner venues change with each numbered Gathering. Check the ticket page for details.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>When:<\/strong> The Supper Club runs about eight hours, and Sip and Read events last a few hours, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grainofsalt.la\/faq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">per the FAQ<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> Gathering #023 starts at $68. The previous Gathering sold out at $195.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Age:<\/strong> Events are 18+ or 21+.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Best For:<\/strong> Food lovers, groups of friends, and anyone who wants a full-day book experience.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>How to Book:<\/strong> Grab tickets on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grainofsalt.la\/attend\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">grain of salt Attend page<\/a>. Supper Club tickets can&#8217;t be refunded within 14 days, though they can be transferred.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why We&#8217;d Book It:<\/strong> Finishing a whole book in one sitting gives the day its own beginning, middle, and end.

It runs submission parties, workshops, anthologies, and a summer conference. It began as a submission party in a co-founder&#8217;s mom&#8217;s kitchen, with quiche and six women, <a href=\"https:\/\/womenwhosubmitlit.org\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">according to its About page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The founders were responding to the VIDA Count on gender gaps in publishing. The group has since grown to nearly 20 chapters in the US and abroad. Los Angeles Literature <a href=\"https:\/\/losangelesliterature.com\/2021\/04\/29\/a-decade-of-women-who-submit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">profiled its decade of submission parties<\/a>, which moved from family homes into larger community spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Where:<\/strong> Events move across LA County chapters. The most recent confirmed event was at the Democracy Center, 100 N Central Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90012.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>When:<\/strong> Times vary by event. The annual SUBMIT 1 Submission Drive recently marked its 13th year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> The group offers &#8220;free services to women and nonbinary writers.&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Best For:<\/strong> Women and nonbinary writers who want accountability, community, and help getting published.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>How to Book:<\/strong> Check the Events page on the <a href=\"https:\/\/womenwhosubmitlit.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Women Who Submit website<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why We&#8217;d Book It:<\/strong> Past gatherings at Highland Park Brewing, Art Share LA, and the West Hollywood Library make hitting &#8220;submit&#8221; a group moment. A room of writers cheering each send-off keeps the kitchen-table warmth the group started with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Script Shuffle by Fake ID Productions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Script Shuffle, actors cast on the spot cold-read five writers&#8217; 10-page scripts on stage. The casting works like speed dating, with writers and actors shuffling between each other. Some nights have themes, and one February edition was dedicated to amplifying Black writers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fake ID Productions, run by a husband-and-wife team, also hosts Shufflefest, an annual 10-minute play festival that has been held at The Cats Crawl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Where:<\/strong> Skiptown Playhouse, 665 Heliotrope Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90004.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>When:<\/strong> Thursday evenings, roughly monthly. Upcoming dates aren&#8217;t posted yet, so check the event page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Time of Day:<\/strong> 7-9 pm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> $10 plus a $0.25 fee.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Best For:<\/strong> Screenwriters, playwrights, actors, and audiences who love scrappy new work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>How to Book:<\/strong> Get tickets on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fakeidproductions.com\/scriptshuffle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Script Shuffle page<\/a>. Hoping to perform? The page says buying in advance is the only way to be sure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why We&#8217;d Book It:<\/strong> Actors meet these scripts minutes before performing them, so the whole playhouse feels the risk in real time. Every surprise laugh lands twice: once for the writer hearing their words aloud and once for the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bring your own book night to life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">LA&#8217;s literary scene keeps proving that the right setting makes a story stick.
