Come to laugh, share stories and make new friends! We believe new books and thoughts from our members will help keep the Ladies Loving Literature Book Club interesting, fresh and exciting for all. We will meet at a different location in the area every five weeks to talk about the book we've read and choos …
Did you know that more than 81% of people say that they'd like to write a book? If you have a book inside of you, what better year than 2012 to write and publish it? I'm the author of a few self published books and am planning to write another in 2012. I've written the others rapidly, and in isolation- but I thought it would be fun to see if I could find other authors or aspiring authors to meet with and talk as I work on this next book. My goal for this group would be to have it be a place wher …
This Meetup group is devoted to people who simply love books and enjoy discussing them. We come together monthly with other book lovers to discuss a pre-selected book but we include time for an open format when you can discuss any book you are currently reading and would like to tell the group about it. Any book is fair game, we just want to know what you like about it and why.
There are no upcoming Meetups.
Hello! I am interested in starting a Book Club for other fun and outgoing moms who live in and around the Baltimore area (I am in Lutherville). If you like to read anything from great fiction/historical fiction to memoirs and novels (think NY Times top 100 lists), would enjoy getting together with a group of other women approx. once per month, and are open to the idea of hosting the group once in a while, this group might be right for you! My goal is to assemble a group of 8-12 women who would l …
New to Baltimore? Or just want to discuss great books with like minded friends? We are a few Towson area 20 something ladies looking to gather a small group for a monthly book discussion and a glass of wine (or two). Come join us to laugh, have fun and exchange stories!
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 …
A live, as opposed to on-line, book discussion group that reads speculative fiction like Science Fiction, Fantasy, Mystery, Graphic Novels and more! As this group grow I hope to include Movie, TV, and Game nights and possibly trips to events like Balticon or even New York Comic Con. I want this to be a content rich envirionment and I plan on starting some related topics on the discussion boards. If anyone would like to help with organizing or adding content, message me!

Meet kindred book lovers in a stimulating, coed book club that meets in Bethesda and in NW, DC! 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 j …
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 …
Who should join: Women 20+. The only other requirement is an avid interest in books and a desire to meet like-minded women in a laid back environment. Purpose of the group: To engage in good conversation about great books. During the meet-ups, we will have group members vote on books to read selecting a couple books at a time. Books will include popular fiction and non-fiction with a few classics thrown in the mix. Please post your recommendations under the "Discussion" tab. I find that s …
Meet other book people in a local book club. We read a different genre of book each month, and decide together on the next month's book. We use the book 501 Must Read Books as the source of our choices. We meet the third Thursday of each month. Come to share your opinions and observations, have something to eat and/or drink, and make new friends from the neighborhood.
If you read a lot of contemporary fiction and nonfiction that is well-reviewed by respected critics, then this book club is for you! For simplicity's sake, we will be choosing our titles from the New York Times notable books list from the past 2-3 years. Each month, we choose one fiction and one nonfiction title. The book club will meet on the first Wednesday to discuss the fiction title and on the third Wednesday to discuss the nonfiction title. You can choose to read one or both of the books, …

This is a book club aimed at reading books of interest to IT professionals, especially software developers. Not hard core technical books, but instead the sort of book that you could sit down and read cover to cover in two to four hours, such as Joel on Software, The Cathedral & the Bazaar, Dreaming in Code, etc. [And maybe a single language review book per year] We'll meet at some coffee shop, bookstore or cafe in Takoma Park or Silver Spring near a metro stop. Our group image is an CC xkcd ill …

Later, I got interested in Military history for the perspecitives on history, personal accounts and other features that military books offer.

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. The purpose is to find out what people are working on that may affect the Future of Books and reading and who are the people that want to keep abreast of what books may become. We're a …
