This meetup is designed to help non-speakers learn to speak, write and read the Yoruba language in a fun, friendly and casual environment with a yoruba speaker. I'm an African who learned to speak and read the language at the early age of 9. Will love to help others do the same! :) I'm not a teacher or tutor, (not yet) just a lover of the language. Will like to try and help!  We can have fun coming up with cool ideas to learn and have fun with it. I may be able to help with Pidgin English too …

New Meetup Group!   The purpose of this group is to form a circle of individuals interested in reading and discussing libertarian books. We will be reading works from the likes of F.A. Hayek, Ludwig von Mises, Murray Rothbard, Frédéric Bastiat, John Locke, Thomas Paine, Ayn Rand, and many more. As libertarians in this era we are on the defensive as we espouse the fruits of liberty from both a natural-rights and utilitarian perspective. Our goal is to deepen and broaden our understanding of liber …

I have recently graduated college with an engineering degree and found myself with...free time? It's a startling concept, but within this free time, I've started reading classics, philosophy and science books that I've been dying to discuss, but alas cannot find participants. That, my friend, is why this meetup exists! Hope there are others that enjoy reading a wide variety and range of topics that explore our physical, metaphysical and perhaps even pseudo-physical philosophies and theories. I'v …

After reading 'The Shack' by William P. Young, I began this quarterly reading club to challenge myself to read (opposed to pacifying my mind with computers, TV, and movies). I was in the library club in elementary school, and I lost the joy of reading leisurely. 'The Shack' renewed my interest!! Most books I've read can be read within a week for those who make reading a priority. With an abundance of obligations (i.e. church, work, school, [oh yeah... and self]), it takes me a little longer to c …

… I moved to the NOVA area in July 2010 for my job with IBM and enjoy reading all different genres, but my preferred are Chick Lit, Mystery/Thriller, and the occasional Non-Fiction.  My top 5 reads include: The Fountainhead - Ayn Rand Thousand Splendid Suns/Kite Runner - Khalid Hosseini The Millenium Trilogy - Steig Larsson Dispatches from the Edge - Anderson Cooper House Rules/The Pact/My Sisters Keeper - Jodi Piccoult (I know I cheated a little but I love Reading!) How to begin:  First things …

  This is just not another tiresome meetup book club that follows some predictable path well trod by about a million other meetup groups. First, we aim to energize your reading life by presenting a rich menu of unexpected offerings rather than a boring genre-specific diet. We will read delightful fables, profound novels about every aspect of the human condition, comedies, plays, thoughtful (but accessible) works of philosophy, as well as a variety of serious political, social and cultural med …

A small book club for 20-and-30-something ladies and female-identified people to meet once a month and discuss a work of literature--primarily fiction, maybe with an occasional work of nonfiction thrown in. I started this book club for three reasons: 1) I miss discussing books after reading them, the way I used to in school, 2) I'd like to make more friends in Baltimore, and 3) Book clubs are best when they're small, and I just wasn't able to find a small one to join in Baltimore! Join this grou …

Monthly discussion about reading, publishing, technology, and the future. We're pretty open about topics - since we don't know what books will be in the future. The format is typically  two 25-30 min. speakers (including questions) and a 25-30 min. period of roundtable discussions amongst a sharp-minded audience.

Do you like to read? Do you like to drink? Then this is the book club for you! Once a month, we will meet in a bar to discuss a book we've all read. This way, we can socialize with other readers, unwind with a beer, and hear some great commentary on a work of fiction or nonfiction. Every month we'll discuss a different book, which will be announced ahead of time. I'll make the final decision for which book we end up reading, but will gladly accept suggestions via e-mail, Message Board, or in per …

… You believe that reading primary sources is not just for scholars. You don't believe all the rot about "The Dark Ages".   What it's not... A casual book club. A celebration of bawdry, magic, and paganism. Boring.   A few words from Terry Jones on "The Middle Ages of Reason", at the UK Guardian.
