Roots & Pages is a book club dedicated to amplifying the voices of women authors.
We want to create a space where readers can engage in meaningful discussions and celebrate diverse narratives.

In a world of shortcuts and AI summaries, we choose to slow down, honor deep reading, and protect our attention as a radical, human act.

We’ll meet monthly at One More Chapter, a cozy Bookbar in Frierdrichshain, to discuss, reflect, and connect over a cup of coffee, tea or glass of wine.Real conversations, not book reports
This isn’t school! Expect honest conversations, laughter, reflections, and room to be yourself.More than a book club
We’re here to read, but also to meet each other, hear each other, and build something together.

THE FOUNDER
I’m Solène, host of A SEAT WITH ME podcast and the founder of ROOTS & PAGES bookclub. Always been an avid reader, my goal with this book club is to foster community around literature and centre women and womxn voices.
Through reading, we learn, and through sharing, we grow. While we center our discussions around literature, our true focus is on the people who gather, connect, and share experiences. ROOTS & PAGES is about creating a space where we meet, see, learn from one another and hear each other, fostering genuine relationships and meaningful conversations. Through books, we build bridges, and through community, we create a home.
Glad you are here 💛

Absolutely. Roots & Pages is built to be gentle, inclusive, and supportive. You can share when you feel ready, or just listen in. What matters is that you feel welcomed. (Sidenote, I myself am introverted!)

Not at all. Everyone is welcome. As long as you come with openness, curiosity, and respect for the voices we centre.
