Our Mission
At Chapter 25 we believe books are better when shared. Our club isn’t just about reading - it’s about the joy, connection and magic that happen when book lovers come together.
We welcome every kind of reader because we know that the best discussions come from different perspectives. The more diverse our community, the richer the conversations, the deeper the friendships and the more meaningful the reading experience.
Our mission is simple: to create the friendliest, most welcoming book club in the UK. A place where stories spark new friendships, laughter fills the room, and everyone feels at home.
Join us today and let’s turn the page on a brand-new chapter together.
Meet Our Founder
Hey! I'm Sian, Founder of Chapter 25 👋
As a lifelong book lover, I’ve always dreamed of creating a space where people can come together share their love of reading and feel truly at home. I wanted to build a book club that wasn’t just about books - but about kindness, connection, and community.
When I launched Chapter 25 in May 2023 in Bedfordshire, I had no idea how quickly it would grow! Now, with over 3,000 wonderful members (and many more on the way!), it’s been incredible to see friendships form, books bringing people together and stories spark the most amazing conversations.
Every month I get to meet the most brilliant, kind-hearted people, all brought together by a shared love of reading. Seeing this community flourish has been a dream come true, and I couldn’t be more grateful for all the support along the way.
I can’t wait for what’s next - thank you so much for being part of this journey!
Lots of love,
Sian x
