We are a group that is founded on the belief that books should be read for entertainment. We want to read and discuss upbeat, fantastic, quirky enjoyable books - not the latest downer tome handed down from Oprah. If you want to read funny, imaginative, quotable books and then rave about how they split your sides, fired you up, or give you weird dreams then this club is for you! Even if the books we end up reading aren't as fun and interesting as we hope - it's better to complain together over dr …
As most people know, people with English degrees* (writing, literature, undergrad, grad, even English minors), rarely are employed in our chosen field of awesome words and sentences. This creates some serious English-class withdraw, leading to awkward social situations when we reference obscure or archaic works of literature or theory, or try to analyze something to an absurd degree. "People with English Degrees, Reading Books" is an attempt to remedy this by providing an outlet for the English …

I have been trying to find a group of parents who love and enjoy to read as much as my husband and I do. Sadly we do not have as much time to read as we use to but we still try to read as much as we can:) Now I read a lot of parenting books or books geared towards children and their interests. My hopes for this group is for us to have a kind of book club aspect in that we will read some similar books and meet at each others home for a session or local coffee shops to discuss them. I love hosting …
I am an avid reader and coffee drinker. I wanted to bring together friends and neighbors who were interested in reading and discussing books with me while enjoying a tasty cup of coffee. We read about one book a month and meet the 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month at Victrola Coffee & Art on 15th Avenue in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle. We read a variety of fiction and non-fiction books on pretty much any topic. If you are interested in reading along with us, discussing the book, …
We are a group of book lovers that meet once a month to discuss.....books. We like to read books from all genres, though usually fiction, we have thrown in a non-fiction a time or two. During the monthly meetups, we choose the next book. Actually, we tend to stay 2 months in advance so everyone has a chance to get the book from the library if they want. How we choose books is a little different too. We don't really discuss the book before reading it. Someone at the meeting suggests a book they w …
Every month we read the best book as chosen by our members. We then meet and discuss them. If the book we chose has been made in to a movie or a play, then we might schedule an additional meetup event. If you are fond of reading and would enjoy discussing books like Three Cups of Tea, The Help, and The Art of Racing in the Rain, we would love to have you as a member of our group.
'All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players: They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. --As You Like It, Act II Amateur dramatics without any of the stress: we pick the parts we want, then read the plays out-loud. No need for costume, props, or silly accents; just normal people. Here, normal people get together, in a quiet location, to read Shakespeare's plays and make The Bard alive--not …
This is a forum for discussing books on contemporary issues. The books chosen will generally be books that received at least some decent reviews in the mainstream press (e.g. The New York Times). Location: Starbucks in downtown Mercer Island (the stand-alone structure with the drive-thru). We meet roughly every two months. I started this meetup because I would love to discuss some of the books I read and very few of my friends read what I read. A couple of people inquired about the possibi …
Have you ever walked into Barnes & Noble and wanted to buy a book because it had a cool, interesting or pretty cover? Don't get me wrong, the book has to be interesting too, but I bet most of us have a stack of books at home with lovely covers and now we need some motivation to read them. This is the kind of book club where the discussion only gets rigorous if there was something interesting/relatable/discussable in the book. We don't have a list of questions to read from (although you are more …

Are you interested in reading some of the books you've heard about on your favorite lefty TV/podcasts/radio shows? Read some thought-provoking books and have a lively discussion with other progressives. Future books will be selected by members. Come with your ideas, including ideas for future selections!
This group is open to anyone interested in reading and discussing books that relate to feminism in some way – whether they are exploring the intersection of feminism and pop-culture (Bitch magazine-style), novels with feminist characters or themes, classics of the genre, or any book that lends itself to a good discussion from a feminist point of view. This is meant to be an inclusive group – anyone who identifies as feminist or wants to learn more is welcome! Once the group gets rolling, I hop …
This is a group for Eastside women in their 20s who like to read and are looking to hang out with other Eastsiders. We'll meet one evening a month (usually the last Tuesday or Wednesday of the month) to discuss whatever book the group has decided on. We'll also meet up from time to time for other events that tie into the book we're reading (movies? trivia at a local bar?)
There are no upcoming Meetups.
I really like the Redmond Sci-Fi & Fantasy book club but thought there might be enough interest to justify a more local club. We will pick a different Sci-Fi or Fantasy book each month to read and discuss.
There are no upcoming Meetups.
I found out that I was psychic at the age of 8 in Key West, Florida. My family are psychics and my father taught me how to use my abilities. I have done a few ghost tours for friends and do readings for everyone. I am wanting to find people in this area who are interested in the same or similar field. I am wanting to start tours.. Are you interested in the same? Don't forget to check out our message board for discussions. I do not endorse any 800#s or websites for psychic readings.
There are no upcoming Meetups.
A group to gather families and French resources for children in the purpose of sharing books that we love. Anyone who wants to read or listen a story in French is welcome in this group.

Local small group of friends get together every month with a book that's voted on to be discussed. If you're interested in reading books from different genres, relaxing with a group of locals and discussing topics from these stories, join us!
Do you like to read? Do you enjoy the New York Times best sellers? Would you like to meet new people? If so, this is the book club for you. I figured if it's a New York Times Bestseller, chances are it's pretty dang good. If you agree, consider giving this meet up a try? Except for May, we're currently planning to meet the 3rd Saturday of each month. When the 3rd Saturday is a holiday weekend, we'll probably move it up or back a week for the convenience of the people who travel on those lon …
