Community Guidelines
How we keep this a good place to be.
A few simple expectations that make Book Babes welcoming, honest, and safe — at every event and everywhere online.
Honest, generous conversation
Real reactions and curious disagreement are welcome. We read closely, we listen well, and we keep it kind — no literary performance, no pressure to love what everyone else loves.
A women-centered, welcoming space
Book Babes is for readers who want company for their reading life. We make room for newcomers, respect different perspectives, and treat every member with care.
Privacy at our gatherings
Exact venues and addresses are shared with attendees after they RSVP. We protect each other’s privacy in person and online.
Safety and good faith
Harassment, hate, spam, and behavior that makes people feel unsafe have no place here. If something feels off, tell us — we take concerns seriously and act on them.
Need to reach us or report something?
If a guideline is broken or something feels off, contact us and we'll respond.
These guidelines may evolve as Book Babes grows, but the standard stays the same: keep the room welcoming, respectful, and safe.
