THE HERON SOCIETY
I’ve been devouring books ever since I could hold them in my hands—it’s safe to say that I have a lot of thoughts about them.
While there are plenty of platforms for readers to share their thoughts, not many can guarantee that you won’t be dragged to the depths of hell for saying you didn’t like BookTok’s flavor of the week. I craved a safe place to talk about the things I’m reading, the patterns I’m seeing in books, and the drama that every other corner of the book world seems to revolve around. As the old adage goes: build the table you want to sit at. I’m building the damn table, and I want you to sit with me.
Welcome to The Heron Society. A place for the quiet, non-confrontational readers who still have a lot to say. Who appreciate healthy debates, fun conversations, and the kind of community that feels like an exhale.
WHY A HERON?
Simple—herons are my favorite bird.
So big, so graceful, so solitary—until it’s time to come together and create. It felt like the perfect symbol to represent this community: a group of individuals who are eager to share their thoughts with intention while celebrating different ideas + connection.

“It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.”
