38 Meetup Groups match “Book Club” near Rego Park, NY
The Breakdown: We read good books. We're looking for other intellectually curious, like-minded 20somethings (a vague guideline) in Astoria (another vague guideline) to read them with us, share some food, drink, and sweet convo. The Criteria For Choosing Said Good Books: Magical language (with a healthy dash of magical realism), fresh voices (love a debut) irreverent to painfully relevant, growing up, growing old, dying, coming back to life, urban culture to Southern idyllicy, savory books that y …

A book group for people in Sunnyside and Woodside, Queens (or those who want to come here). Any age, any gender, is welcome. This is a group for people who want to meet others every month or two to talk about a book we've all read (or mostly read. We know, sometimes you hate a book and you just can't finish it. Come tell us how much you hated it and why!), and get to know people near you.
Hey Ladies! Are you someone that is looking to meet up with other gals in the area, make friends, and chat about great books maybe have a glass or two of wine and bite to eat? Then this club is for you! We will all vote on a new book each month and then meet up at a restaurant or lounge to discuss the book and have some fun and interesting conversation …
This is book club for people who want to catch up on their modern classics such as Lolita, Catch-22 and On the Road. Book choices will be from the 20th century and on. We have a good group going so far, members coming from all over NYC. You do not have to live in Williamsburg to join! This is simply where the meet-ups will tend to be.
This book club reads popular fiction and non-fiction with spiritual themes, and then meets in fellowship for discussion. Redemption, humanity, freedom, rebirth, nature, justice, triumph, and the mystical are among the many spiritual themes explored. Hosted by Original Blessing: A Unitarian Universalist Congregation in north Brooklyn, New York. All are welcome!
QUBC reviews books from various genres (both fiction and non-fiction). Many of the books reviewed are urban themed. Books are voted upon by club members. Supplementary activities are also incorporated into club meetings on a regular basis. Discussion questions, supplemental materials, and meeting information are maintained on this site. All are welcomed!
Finally... a book club in Williamsburg! We decide on a new book every month- only after polling you, of course. After reading, we'll get together at a local Williamsburg haunt to discuss. Don't worry, we'll come prepared with questions so you won't have to stress over having nothing to say.
The Queens Literati is a safe haven for avid readers who find themselves searching for a new book or an intelligent literary society. Maybe you're tired of joining group after group, reading the same kinds of uninspired young adult novels that leave you feeling... well, childish. Maybe you're looking for the opportunity to read a challenging book and follow it up with an insightful discussion. Maybe you're a recent Queens transplant looking to make new friends in the area. Maybe the sudden appea …

This group offers the chance to meet other literary Anglophiles and discuss the best writing from across the pond.

For updates and discussions, please join our Facebook group.

The purpose of this group is to meet other people who have a similar interest in checking out Trinidad's Carnival in 2013. The summer is quickly approaching and reservations need to be made. The cost of everything increases, and the availability of costumes and accomodations decreases the closer we get to the end of the year. If you've heard about it from someone who actually went, it's sooooo much fun...so maybe 2013 is YOUR year to go! Let's meetup and see if we can assist each other in our …

If you want to live a more fulfilled life, first you will want to know your potential, who you really are. Meditation is the route to that knowing. It is the methodology of the science of awareness. Many meditative techniques require one to sit still and silent. But for most of us accumulated stress in our bodymind makes that difficult. Before we can hope to access our inner powerhouse of consciousness, we need to let go of our tensions. Osho Active Meditations have been scientifically designe …
Are you a working professional or college student who prefers the company of other geeks? Do you find yourself frequently wishing there was some sort of watering hole for people like you who watch Adult Swim, revel in the joys of DDR/video games, read esoteric books, and indulge shamelessly in intelligent debate? Do you hate hipsters with an undying passion? Do you need people to drink shamelessly with in order to summon the courage to get on stage to croon in front of a large crowd of karaoke g …
We are passionate writers looking to meet other passionate writers. Our group loves to have fun and our atmosphere is warm, welcoming, playful - at times even silly. At the same time, when we get down to it, we offer sincere feedback, trying to improve each other's work. We believe that to give good feedback we have to tell the writer what worked well first, what moved us, what inspired us, what made us want to punch something or someone. Then, we talk about what can be improved. The environment …

The daily lives of most of us are full of things that keep us busy and preoccupied with mundane concerns. We miss the sacred, so every now and then we find ourselves drawing-back and wondering what is it all about. And then. perhaps we may internally begin exploring perennial questions that we don't normally stop to examine. This can happen with regard to any aspect of our lives. This study group is deliberately designed for those among us who are curious, enthusiastic, non-judgemental, and wond …

Inspired by the Medved books of the 80s. People get together at my house in Sunnyside every other month, the 4th Sunday of odd months, and we watch and heckle, hillariously bad movies. It's like being in MST3K. People bring munchies or their own lunch. Some bring guest bad movies. No porn or slashers, just over- or underacting, cheap sets, weird writing, and all-out lousy filmmaking. Examples include Project Moonbase, Robot Monster, Massacre Mafia Style, and "Titanic, the Animated Musical!" Th …
