Welcome to the Gray Fox Book Club Munich!

Est. September 1, 2022 | Munich, Germany

Hey there, fellow page-turners, audiobook-addicts, and Kindle-clutchers!

Are you looking to escape the daily grind, discover your next favorite author, and drink/dine with some of the coolest bookish souls in Munich? You’ve found your pack.

Since we officially launched on September 1st, 2022, the Gray Fox Book Club has grown from a cozy idea into a vibrant community of 71 committed, active members. From exploring the global perspectives of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Dream Count, finding cozy wisdom in What You Are Looking for Is in the Library, to traveling through time in The Ministry of Time, we read 12 incredible books a year from every corner of the globe.

How We Roll (The Rules of Engagement):

First Thursday of Every Month @ 19:00: This is our golden hour. No moving dates, no scheduling nightmares. Write it in ink on your calendar!

Central Munich Restaurants: We meet in person at centrally located, easy-to-reach Munich eateries (from local beer gardens to cozy spots like Hans im Glück). We eat, we drink, and we get lively.

The Golden Rule of 30: While our community is strong, we strictly cap our monthly RSVP lists at 30 people per event. This ensures everyone actually gets to talk, laugh, and fit around the table without needing a megaphone.

Structured but Fun: No awkward silences here! We discuss our monthly read in small groups using curated, structured questions, so everyone’s voice gets heard.

Who can join?

Whether you’re a busy parent sneaking in some audiobook chapters while folding laundry, an expat looking for their tribe, or a lifelong local looking for brilliant conversation, there is no snobbery here. Just great books, global voices, and fantastic company.

Ready to join? Grab your copy of this month’s book, RSVP to our next event (spots fill up fast!), and come say hi to our founder, Lillian Gray (our resident South African artist and mom of five!), to get added to our legendary WhatsApp group.

Let’s read, eat, and get a little funky. See you on the first Thursday of the month! 🍷📖
