Hi there!  I used to belong to a wonderful, monthly book club, but due to a change in my work schedule, I was no longer able to attend.  I decided to create my own.  We currently meet on Tuesdays, and alternate meeting each month at 1 pm and 7 pm.  Days/times we meet may change, but advanced notice will be given.  **Starting in August, we will be meeting Mondays.** The book of the month will be posted at least a couple months in advance.  This is not a 'chick-lit' only group.  We read a variety …

These are the voyages of the Western Suburban Science-Fiction Book Club... Our continuing mission: to seek out the most compelling, discussion-provoking science-fiction (and occasionally, fantasy) and gather together to chat about them over dinner. It's a pretty good mission. Reading sci-fi suggests certain nerdish... leanings, but don't be afraid: our group is all-inclusive. Yes, I'm sure a few of us qualify as geeks, but we're all socially well-adjusted and reasonably freshly showered too. Our …

There are a few other book clubs out there, but not many in the NW corner of the city.  I struggled to find one that was just for women and had spots available at their upcoming events.  So, I started my own group. I'm also hoping to expand beyond the monthly book discussions.  It would be great to meet other women that are interested in dinners, wine tasting, etc. in the city or in the surrounding suburbs. I'm in my mid-30's so I titled the group 30s (ish).  If you're age is above or below that …

This group is for moms from the western suburbs who can barely find enough time to get everything done, but somehow find the time to dig into a good book. We're looking for moms who want to get together at a local restaurant, once a month, to casually discuss our book of choice, as well as anything else under the moon, while enjoying good food, good wine and good company!
