Comics are brilliant. They are also an overlooked and under-appreciated part of the literary establishment, so we're looking to redress the balance a little. This group will work pretty much like a traditional book club - we pick a new graphic novel or collection every month, read it and meet up for a discussion over coffee or a beer. We're going to try to find the literary corners of the graphic storytelling medium - I'm interested in how art style informs character perception; how panel layout …
Hello and Welcome to the Red Line Book Club! (Formerly the Davis Square Book Club). "A book is like a garden carried in the pocket." This is a club where friendly interesting people meet to discuss the books we have all read together. If there is a general theme to the books we read, it's that we read "great" books: enduring classics and new books with lots of potential. You have the entire rest of the world with whom you can discuss Stieg Larsson; here we try to dig at least a little deeper. Fo …

"No matter how busy you may think you are, you must find time for reading, or surrender yourself to self-chosen ignorance." — Confucius I'm sure I'm not the only one out there who gave many a classic book a pass while growing up. Yet it turns out our teachers were right and there is a literary currency that these works provide. This book club is your chance to sit down and finally read Anna Karenina, Don Quixote, Pride and Prejudice, but also the somewhat forgotten classics and even modern works …

Hi there! I want to start a book club that focuses on non-fiction reads -- mostly what I tend to read are books about health and wellness, travel, animals, biographies, business, and in general, real things. I feel like I am alone out there, because every other book club I see is totally based on reading novels and other works of fiction. Unfortunately, it is rare for me to really enjoy a novel! I would love to see if other people in the area are interested in reading about the "real" stuff and …
This is a group for all those who miss the pleasure of digging into a new book with the knowledge that on the other side of the cover they will have the opportunity for engaging conversation! Prepare yourself for some mid-brow chatter, snacks, and reading. We're aiming for one book a month, democratic voting selection, and wide array of subject matters probably heavily leaning towards fiction. Did I mention the snacks?

This group was established during the summer of 2007 as a casual, social means of discussing the books that have been sitting on our nightstands, or on our "Must Read!" lists for months, as well as providing the incentive with which to actually read them. The group originally ran with two branches: Cambridge and Brookline, and our goal is to provide similar groupings in and around the Boston area. Organization has changed hands over the past two years, but the result has always been a source o …
