So many great books, so little time. You know it's good to expand your mind and imagination through reading, so let our group help! We'll meet and discuss wonderful reads on a monthly basis. Sometimes we'll meet at a member's house or at a local restaurant. Don't fret, there will always be food and wine if you choose to imbibe. I started this group because I just moved to Claremont and there were not many book clubs in this area. We welcome ladies from Claremont, La Verne, Upland, Pomona, Montc …

Whether you are an avid book reader or just read a book every now and again this club is for you. I started this group so that I could have great conversations with other women about books that make us think, cry, dream or simply laugh. I enjoy recommending and lending books to my friends in exchange for their recommendations and book loans and would love to have more people to do this with. Books chosen will be by suggestion of members and are typically off the best-seller's list or "Oprah B …

When we moved to the IE we realized that there are not any book clubs out here that cater to everyone, so we decided to start our own. The book club meets once a month on week day and Saturday evenings. Please only join if you are able to meet once a month and have the time to read one book. Every month we announce a genre that we will be reading from. We are constantly asking for reading suggestions from our members and then four of these suggestions within the genre are made into a poll to vot …

Well I think the group name does most of the describing, but the goal here is for people relatively the same age, to pick great books, meet up once a month and discuss them. I want to create a casual and fun atmosphere so that like-minded people can get together, meet people out of their circles, and have the intellectual stimulation that's void from so many of the encounters I've had with people out here in LA. We'll pick from a range of books, and meet wherever the group decides. Ideally, we'd …

*Please note the group is currently closed to new members as we manage the size of our group not outgrowing the size of our meeting location.  If you are interested in joining the group, I am taking a waiting list for when we re-open the group to new members again.  Feel free to email the organizer for details.* We are an open minded, eclectic group and pick books in all areas by all authors (not just women). From Fiction to Non-Fiction, Mystery to Romance and everything in-between, it's hard t …

Valley Girls Tuesday Night Book Club is about enjoyable reading for women who want to experience good books--period.  Doesn't matter the author, genre or medium.  In fact, I would encourage you to try different media when reading.  Try a book on CD/tape every once and a while--as long as it's unabridged.  Makes those car rides go a lot faster!  I'm not a slave to having the author be a woman or it necessarily even about being 'women's issues' (whatever those are) but would like to pick interesti …

I love all kinds of books, but especially Science Fiction and Fantasy. When I finish a really good book, I love to be able to discuss some of the ideas the author introduced, check my understanding of some of the plot twists and character development, and generally just say how much I liked or hated the book. If you would also like to discuss new books, ideas and authors with SF&F fans, this group is for you! Join us each month for a new book, decided by poll.

If you'd like to make a commitment to reading more AND you've been dying to try out some of the fabulous bars, restaurants and cute little coffee shops and tea rooms LA has to offer, this is the book club for you! I'm planning on alternating between American classics one month, to modern literature the next to keep a good balance.

The West Hollywood Women's Book Club was founded in order to offer women a way to connect with other women. Our primary focus is connecting women who work, rest, or play in the City of West Hollywood. Our overarching mission is to transform our great city into a community one woman at a time. All women are welcome.

Let’s surround ourselves with individuals who aspire to improve themselves or reposition their lives in a positive direction. We all could get caught in the cycle of everyday life and lose focus on our purpose. Whether you are tip-toeing or making giant leaps towards your dreams and/or goals, let’s get together and read about ways to stay focused and progressive. Hopefully, our discussions will encourage, motivate, and support one another on our journeys. Let’s move forward with our dreams, pr …

Advice from Cher Horowitz from the classic film Clueless: "You should read one non-school book a week." This advice applies not only to high school girls, but also to lesbians, queers, gay ladies.

The books we read may or may not be lesbian/queer themed, but the Ladies who attend probably will be ;) (gay/lesbian/bi/queer, trans family welcome) Re …
