Inspired by the success of our other chapters, RBC Oxford sprang from a member-led movement to connect with other curious minds and share inspiring ideas.
We're more than just a book club—it's a social hub with regular events and bonus gatherings that foster deep connections and lively conversations. Whether you're a seasoned reader or new to non-fiction, Rebel Book Club Oxford is the perfect place to meet like-minded individuals.
Discover your non-fiction tribe and join us on the last Tuesday of each month at our Oxford meet-ups!
I’m Katie, Canadian-Brit, and I work as an English tutor, editor and blogger in Oxford.
I’m a language enthusiast and love to read nonfiction so I’m always learning about new ideas and fields of study. After years of reading and teaching English literature, I’ve recently rediscovered contemporary fiction, and I’m loving that too.
We hold the Oxford RBC meetings at my husband’s pub, which is handy as we live above it with our husky, Maple.
Hi, I'm Phil and I co-host the RBC Oxford meetups with Katie. I've been with RBC for over three years now and love exploring the different theme each month.
As well as reading I enjoy running and swimming but music is my main passion. The Oxford group is welcoming and the discussions are always engaging.
Join up yourself or gift. Choose a membership to fit your learning goals & lifestyle. Go at your pace.
Every month members vote on a hotlist of 3 nonfiction books on a topic. We nudge you weekly to read, listen or watch & join the discussion.*

You will be invited to our monthly in-person & digital events (not another zoom room). Plus rebel coffees, learning goals support & shared interest groups.
