Read. Eat. Discuss. Have fun. Repeat. Food and books--almost as good of a pair as milk and cookies. Or Lennon and McCartney. This is all about getting together with other people who enjoy eating and reading and discussing what makes literature great and any other topics that may come up. With so many books in print it is good to have direction from other avid readers to know what to read next. What better avenue than over a delicious meal at one of SLC's fine dining venues? Classic reading …
I decided to form this group because there are not very many book clubs on Meetup for the SLC area. For now I do not want to limit the club to a certain type of book. Instead, I would love to open it up to new fellow members as to what genre of fiction or non-fiction they would like to discuss. I also want the book selection to be democratic through polls, rather than a dictatorship. In summary, if you love to read and would like to meet other bookworms to discuss the book of the meeting (but I …
Do you regret not paying attention during your literature classes in high school? Would you like to read the "classics" and discuss them with others? If so, you've found the right club. We will be reading a wide range of modern, ancient, medieval and contemporary classic books from around the globe! Anything over 600 pages.... we'll probably split into two meetings. **Ideally** you should have the novels read before you attend a meetup, but you don't have to or even have started them! But Come r …
I'm a stay-at-home mom who would rather discuss sasquatch, alternative medicine, and the (non?) existence of god than soccer and potty training. This group is for any skeptical-type people willing to read one skeptical or science-themed book a month (ranging from serious to silly--I'm open to suggestions all over the spectrum) and discuss it over snacks and drinks. We'll each have to buy our own books, 'cause the library book group selections weren't chosen for non-fiction readers.
I wanted to start a group to open up discussion about books that have to do with spirituality, primarily Christian spirituality. I believe that through a honest and supported group we can all help each other grow on our spiritual path in life. This group, although it has a Christian focus is open to any spirituality and religion. I feel that we are all here to do great works and sharing different experiences and beliefs with each other will only help to strengthen our own faith. I want to read b …

I have wanted to be in a book club for a long time, but cringe when my friends tell me their clubs are reading "Diaries of a Shoppaholic" and the like. I love to read, but feel like I have a more and more difficult time finding books that I really love. I would like to start a group that could meet monthly and, in addition to the typical pick a book, read and discuss, talk in general about books we love and why. Perhaps every other meeting we could pick a book to read that either one member love …
… This is not like a book club where you have to have read a tome. Rather, participants are encouraged to bring poems for reading and discussion, just attend and join in the discussion. At least in the beginning, each meeting will be a cornucopia of surprises.

In our group, we will support one another as we study together from the book, "A Course In Miracles." We will use the companion commentaries written by many authorities, such as Marianne Williamson's "A Return To Love." We believe that this Course will bring each of us together in a sense of Community, as we all progress to AWAKENING in 2012! Want to be free from the thought processes that hold you in bondage?

The STAR Forum is here to Save The American Republic. We advocate and educate in Constitutional Principles as found in the book The 5,000 Year Leap, as mentioned in the 9.12 Project and discussed on the Glenn Beck program. We are here to not change one election cycle, but change the education of our communities back to principled living, and principled representatives. If you would like to continue your education on the Founding Fathers, the Principles of Liberty, and be an active participant …
“In 1816 Mary and Percy Bysshe Shelley visited Lord Byron at his villa in Switzerland. Among other subjects, the conversation turned to the feasibility of returning a corpse or assembled body parts to life. Sitting around a log fire at Byron's villa, the company also amused themselves by reading German ghost stories, prompting Byron to suggest they each write their own supernatural tale. Mary Shelley conceived the idea for Frankenstein and Lord Byron managed to write a short fragment based on va …

Calling all foodies in U.C. - Vicarious Gourmet is a place where we can get together and enjoy what we love most: tongue-meltingly delicious food. But there's an even larger purpose than that. Through interactions with other foodies and food experts from all over the county, we can increase our own "gourmet I.Q." Your palate will grow as you try new foods and seasoning combinations, and your recipe book will always have a backlog of new ideas to try. Together with our own exclusiv …
