I am a high school biology teacher who would like to have extra motivation to read science-related books and discuss them outside of school. These wouldn't be textbooks, they would be more "popular science" that are educational and entertaining as well! Authors will include Richard Dawkins, Natalie Angier, E.O. Wilson, Carl Sagan, and Rachel Carson among others. There are many of these that have been on my "to-do" list for a long time. Of course other science teachers would be great for this gro …

Are you an intelligent, curious woman between the ages of 30 and 60 (or thereabout) who would love to read and discuss books that educate you in some way? Do you who wonder how the brain works, how the environment and food is affecting your health, what a new scientific discovery overseas could mean for you in terms of your beliefs and ethics, or what it come mean to you when we lose another species to extinction? Do you like to read about historical events that have shaped how we think about me …
Hey there. I'm hoping this book club will fill a gap that's missing in the local book club scene. I really enjoy reading books that are engaging and leave me feeling like I've learned something. I also really enjoy books that help me understand other people and where they are coming from. So I started this book club, which I've named 'People, Places, and Perspectives.' People - personal stories, psychology, sociology, anthropology Places - geography, culture, urban planning Perspectives - how ot …
I decided to start up a book club in Shirlington because it seemed like the others offered were in faraway lands... like DC and Reston. I enjoy visiting both of these places, but I don't enjoy trying to get there after work or on a weekend. After lamenting over the book club options it finally occurred to me - why do I start one in Shirlington so I could actually walk there and hopefully get to meet people in my own little neighborhood? Hence the beginning of the Shirlington Book Club (I'm ope …
Are you interested in being a part of a book club? Do you want to discuss books in an adult setting where different opinions are welcomed? This group is for you! We are a co-ed group and we try to read books from several different genres. Our members suggest books which we add to our small book bank. We then choose two books from the list at random and vote for the next month's book using the meetup polling tool. Please provide a profile pic so members and myself can identify you easier.

I love to read books, but often feel the need to share them with others. Since, I live in a very liberal area - I thought I would start a book club for those of us conservatives who are reading the same books and would like to discuss them. Although, I am not a 912er, I would welcome any members or anyone who is interested in reading and discussing conservative books. I am open to suggestions on books. I just read a book recommended by Glenn Beck, written by Andy Andrews called "How to Kill 11 M …
