CB.2:5.4 - A first social connection can be enough

At a small neighbourhood reading gathering, two newcomers want conversation rather than critique of their reading ability. The host introduces a shared question, makes room for both to speak and checks whether they want another meeting. They agree to exchange recommendations. No completed review or progression into organising work is required for this exchange to be useful.
