This is Book Club for those who have a passion for reading. We will select books that are simply so good you have to talk about it ! If you have a book you have read and you want to swap with someone that would be great too. If you have not yet read the book but have heard about it. We will read our fav parts and hopefully motivate you. Men and women ages 18 and up are welcome.

This is a monthly book club that will meet on the last Monday (evening) of the month & discuss the books that were read. The meet up place can change from coffee shops to personal homes, where ever the wind takes us on the north side. A new book will be decided after every meet up based on participant votes. The book club is supposed to be relaxed and social & to bring people together who love to read & want to meet new people in the north side neighborhoods.

Who loves to read? Come join others your age to discuss and indulge in reading together. We can chat over coffee, tea or wine. The group strives to find great books worth reading with a focus on newer fictional releases. We welcome all viewpoints and encourage lively discussion! We meet every two weeks on alternating Wednesdays and Fridays. Our preferred venue is fun and casual coffee shops. We will decide as a group what books we'd like to read a couple of meetings in advance, so bring your sug …

There are several book clubs out there but they either seem to be disbanding, specialized or for women only so I decided to start this one. I am the former organizer of a large book club in Nashville which, I'm proud to say, is still going strong and I hope to bring that same success to this one. I had the opportunity to read a lot of great books I may not have picked up on my own and I hope to be introduced to even more! This is a co-ed bookclub that will meet once a month, at local coffee sho …

Hey, let's read and discuss some good books. I'll keep this meetup simple.  Anyone can suggest a book.  The more popular the book, the faster it will get on the list, with some exceptions.  For instance, if we have a streak of books on politics, I may  toss in a medical or philosophy title to break it up.  And to really mix it up, we may even take on the occasional piece of fiction, perhaps a banned book or two.  Discussions will be very informal, but if someone would like to take the lead on an …

There are a few other book clubs out there, but not many in the NW corner of the city.  I struggled to find one that was just for women and had spots available at their upcoming events.  So, I started my own group. I'm also hoping to expand beyond the monthly book discussions.  It would be great to meet other women that are interested in dinners, wine tasting, etc. Please note: This group has $2 dues for each 6-month period.  The current period is November 2012 to April 2013.  You can either pay …

Have a book that's ready to publish? Want to learn more about how self-publishing works? Have you discovered great tactics for marketing your books, and want to share with other authors who have done the same? Then this group is for you!
