We’re so excited to announce the launch of the Stone Soup Book Club! The very first one will be for Asian teens— it’s called Beyond the Lines and we welcome tweens and teens aged 11–16 to come and join us for fun, bookish sessions. We will contemplate, question, criticise… and have fun!

We will meet online on the last Sunday of the month, at 1PM IST / 3:30PM SGT and go on for one and a half hours. During this time, we will have deep discussions about a book, enjoy fun activities, and hopefully everyone will have an hour or two of bookish fun!

For our first session, scheduled for January 2026, our theme will be Fantasy.

Please feel free to nominate books for us to discuss! The committee will go through the nominations and choose a book that we think will be intriguing and fun to discuss.

We also plan to post book reviews and other bookish tidbits on the website: this will be an opportunity for you to see your work published! More on that very soon.

If these timings don’t work for you because you are in a different time zone, don’t worry! The committee is working hard to launch a US Book Club, which will be for those of you in the US and nearby. As we grow and expand, we’ll try to have even more sessions across different time zones.
