Vancouver, it's time to connect your inner rebel reader and finally get through a bunch of books while having fun! We're excited to bring Rebel Book Club to your doorstep.
What can you expect when you join RBC Vancouver? Our gatherings are welcoming to both experienced readers and those new to non-fiction, providing a space to explore, connect and grow. We dive into compelling subjects like technology, environmentalism, migration, and mental health; our books will spark your imagination and prompt stimulating conversations with fellow curious Vancouverites.
Come for the books, stay for the community, and leave with fresh insights and connections. Join us for thought-provoking reads and meaningful discussions at unique locations on the last calendar Tuesday of every month.
Paige joined Rebel Book Club in London in July 2018. She loves how RBC encourages her to explore new subjects and perspectives she might not have discovered otherwise.
After moving across the pond and missing the events and connections she made with fellow RBC'ers, she wanted to recreate that experience in vibrant Vancouver.
Paige's nonfiction recommendations:
1. Bad Blood, by John Carreyrou
2. Life 3.0, by Max Tegmark, Rob Shapiro
3. In Extremis: The Life of War Correspondent Marie Colvin, by Lindsey Hilsum
Amirali is a programming language designer for AI computers. Having made Vancouver his home, he found himself missing a like-minded community—one that thrives on curiosity, deep conversations, and a shared passion for learning. Rebel Book Club offers just that, and Amirali is excited to help grow a space where diverse perspectives come together to challenge ideas and expand horizons.
Amirali's nonfiction recommendations:
1. The User Illusion: Cutting Consciousness Down to Size, by "Tor Nørretranders"
2. Factfulness, by Hans Rosling
