This is a brand new book club for mamas-to-be in the Bethesda area so we can meet and get to know some of each other before our babies are born. Group members will take turns choosing a book for the group to read. Books may be, but do not need to be, about pregnancy, babies, or parenting.

We welcome members who are interested in reading a variety of books and who want to hear the diverse insights and perspectives of others, as well as share their own. We ask that our members be courteous in that they mainta …

Meet kindred book lovers in a stimulating, coed book club! This book club already existed and has members, but we'd like to have new members join and we have continued doing so throughout the time the book club has existed- new blood and thoughts help make the book club even more interesting and diverse. The age range of the group is between the late twenties to the late 40s and one must fill out the form (I know it's a pain) and be selected by the group to join. We meet on Tuesdays at 7:30 p.m. …
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 medita …

looking for other women in my area who like to read good fiction or non-fiction (something more than pop chic-lit), and would like to get together once a month or so. Perhaps you have never been in a book club before like me; have never taken the time... one weeknight a month; get reading again and discuss with other interesting, intelligent women.
There are no upcoming Meetups.

There are many things that this group is NOT: It's not being critiqued by anyone who walks in off the street, It's not meandering conversations about kids, recipes, having a terrible job, or having no job at all. It's not about blogging, fanfic, children's books, or books that are written in an hour, a week, a month, or a year. What this group IS is meeting regularly with a professional writer and editor who will work on your book on all levels from genre choice to plot arcs to line-by-line edit …
This is a casual and friendly book group for D.C. young professionals between the ages of 21 and 35 who like discussing books and drinking beer--preferably at the same time! We meet the last Wednesday evenings of each month at Public Bar in Tenleytown. This event is sponsored by the D.C. Public Library.
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 …

Looking for 6 Boomer Ladies who want to commit to purchasing the book and reading select content for discussion two times a month for five months at local restaurants. We will meet the 1st …
The Great Books Reading Group is not a literature club. It is a discussion group that uses a multidisciplinary approach to learning and exploring the past and present. We are reading from the St. John's College Reading List. As we read foundational texts in the Western tradition, we examine mysticism, history, theology, the earth and physical sciences, mathematics, philosophy and government, as well as art, literature and music.

Information is power. Fibromyalgia is enigmatic and ambiguous and can be a life-altering disorder. Fight the confusion and uncertainty with information. My vision for this group is to get people who experience fibromyalgia together to comment and share their thoughts on current research and historical perspectives. The reading list won't be limited to books or research specifically on fibromyalgia. It will also include books on neuroscience, chronic illness, philosophy of self and consciousness, …

Who loves a good read? This group is dedicated to those who flip right to People magazine's book reviews in the check out aisle at the grocery store. To the ones who give story lines a shot, even if it is labeled young adult fiction. The ones who don't care if the book is the next great American novel, or not. I'm creating this meetup based off of my love of books, plot lines, and social company. I am an equal opportunist when it comes to my books, and I hope that if you join, you will be too. T …
