A great community for continuous learning and development! I’ve been a member of RBC for nearly 3 years and always recommend it to friends and colleagues. The theme each month is always something different, often suggested by members themselves. It’s pushed me out of my comfort zone and helped me stay curious by giving me an opportunity to explore topics I might not initially be drawn to. The team are incredible and passionate, I always enjoy the variety in the virtual and in-person events. It’s also an incredible community, friendly, open-minded and committed to learning/self-improvement.

I’ve absolutely loved being part of Rebel Book Club. What makes it stand out from any other book club is the balance between thought-provoking, relevant non-fiction and the community that comes with it. Every month I get pushed outside my usual comfort zone with books I probably wouldn’t have chosen myself – and that’s exactly the point. The events (both online and in-person) are warm, inclusive, and full of interesting people who want to discuss big ideas without judgment. It’s so much more than just “reading a book”; it’s about connecting, sharing perspectives, and finding practical ways to apply the insights to real life. The team behind Rebel Book Club are genuinely passionate and put a huge amount of effort into creating a welcoming and engaging space. If you want to read more, learn more, and feel part of a thoughtful, inspiring community, this is the perfect place.

Rebel Book Club is great for expanding your reading horizons. What makes RBC truly special is how it encourages me to pick up non-fiction books I otherwise wouldn't read: the theme each month brings something fresh, surprising and thought-provoking. The community is one of the most friendly and inclusive I’ve come across. One of my main reasons for joiing (other than reading!) was to meet new, interesting people. The in person events are fun and engaging, often sparking wide-ranging discussions that linger long after the evening ends. Online chats are lively and insightful, covering everything from personal reflections to global perspectives. It’s a space where ideas flow freely and conversations challenge you to think differently.

I joined Rebel Book Club using their Flex membership back in 2024, and this year it was a no-brainer to renew. There are so many five-star aspects to RBC – from the thoughtful onboarding and community building, through to the expertly curated in-person events – that prove that the team behind the book club want to deliver an incredibly high quality experience. In a world of AI slop, RBC is the perfect antidote. The theme for each month is chosen with care, and having the option to vote for one of three books means that I always feel as if I've been taken on an engaging journey towards being part of each month's topic. I go to the London events and they're always so warm and welcoming, with a team of people ready to greet newbies – or welcome back oldies like me. 100% recommend becoming a member – I hope I'll get to see you at an event soon!

I was hesitant about joining Rebel Book Club as I didn’t know anyone and wondered if I would feel awkward or uncomfortable. I only wish I had joined sooner. Every single book has been a fantastic read - books I would never normally pick up but ones which have introduced me to new ideas and encouraged me to make changes for the better in so many aspects of my life. The discussions are always so interesting, and most of all, the ‘warm community’ spoken of is really real! I have met many like minded people and been made to feel welcome every single time. I look forward to the events, I read more, I know more, I’m on my phone less. RBC is one of London’s best kept secrets, run by people who just want to create a beautiful community with great vibes. Amazing work!

Joining RBC was one of the most rewarding decisions I’ve made. In that time, I’ve read countless books I never would have picked up on my own. What makes Rebel special is more than just the books. It’s the discussions, the chance to learn directly from authors, the creativity of the community, and the way the founders have built something truly inclusive and inspiring. During the pandemic, for example, the team kept us connected with inventive new ways of coming together - something I’ll always be grateful for. Eight years on, I’m still proud to be a member. RBC isn’t just about reading, it’s about curiosity, connection, and growth. If you’re looking for a book club that challenges and inspires you long-term, this is the one.

I joined Rebel Book Club couple of years ago now. We cover a wide range of topics and I have to say the books we have read so far have really broadened my horizons and general knowledge. I wasn't a big non-fiction reader before, but now I definitely am! RBC is also a very nice community of like-minded people, where members can safely share their thoughts and ideas whether it is related to the book or not. There are regular meet-ups and events and I have met some amazing and interesting people. I am looking forward to more learning and more friendships in the coming year :)

Loving this non-fiction community! Since joining a year ago, I've read so many non-fiction books i would not have otherwise picked up. Being outside one of the main city hubs, I haven't attended an in -person meet, but the monthly virtual clubs have been super - smaller than I expected, so plenty of opportunity to contribute, and always with relevant speakers as well as an excellent host. We've even had the author on a number of occasions. Highly recommended.

I’ve been a member of Rebel Book Club for about 5 years and I absolutely love it!From the get-go it’s been more than just a book club. It pushes me to read non-fiction books I probably wouldn’t pick up otherwise, across themes that challenge, inspire, and broaden my thinking. The community is warm and welcoming full of people who want to learn, question, and grow. The meetups and virtual events are always well run. Highly recommend!

"RBC excites and challenges me with the variety of the books that are chosen. I learn so much from the books and from the follow-up chats at the RBC Oxford events."

"I've really enjoyed reading things I wouldn't have selected and the in-person evenings are super well designed, light of touch and with interesting people. It's great to have your world expanded by reading things you wouldn't normally select."

"Reading with RBC has changed my perspective on the world. It gently takes you out of your comfort zone through insightful themes, titles and interactions with other "rebels" around the globe. My biggest learning: How to be a better human, how to reimagine the future, and how to have more empathy for people and their plights. I like myself more since joining RBC."

"Discussing these books with people who think differently to me is so rewarding!"

"I’ve so enjoyed being part of the RBC this year - I have read things I would have never picked up by myself. Some I’ve liked, some I’ve not but I’ve not regretted reading any of them. You’ve introduced me to new perspectives and I’m very grateful for it."

Over 4 years the books have had such a HUGE impact on my life and shaped who I am today, which I’m very grateful for. They’ve helped encouraged me to give up drinking, fulfil my dream of becoming a yoga teacher, limit my fashion consumption and become more conscious and aware of how we treat this beautiful planet earth. A great community and I highly recommend RBC!

RBC has broadened my horizons, exposed me to topics I had never before even considered and introduced me to a whole series of inspiring and useful books. But perhaps most significantly RBC has introduced me to a whole world of fascinating and fun-loving people I now call my friends.

I've been a member for about 2 years and it's has made such a positive impact on my life. I joined to read more non-fiction books and to meet new people, and it's exceeded my expectations. You get to meet a lot of like minded people, read some amazing books across a variety of topics and there's plenty of additional groups you can join depending on your interests. Give it a try, I promise you won't regret it.

I have read 10x more since joining. But reading more is just the start of the benefits - there is a strong, highly engaged community of like-minded readers to discuss the current book, other books, and interesting themes and topics with. Joining RBC is one of the best things I’ve done. Great books great community great events 👌

Love, love Rebel Book Club! I'm always looking forward to our next meetup and I leave with so much inspiration and positive vibes! I 100% recommend it to anyone who is either: looking to meet like-minded people, get an incentive to read more or just engage in conversations about books (which does not happen often these days).

Forever a fan of the Rebel Book Club crew and love what they’re doing for non-fiction readers in London (and worldwide!) Not sure where else you could get as much heart, author chats and cool people as with RBC. So worth joining.

I have been a member of Rebel Book Club for 5 years. Calling it a 'book club' is almost a disservice; it's really a community and a movement. There's something special about RBC that just keeps it going from strength to strength. The team behind it are amazing and put effort into every little detail; from the customised payment plans, newsletters and community hangouts, to the little details of the events and conversation starters.
