There are several Meetup book clubs in the East Bay, but many of them are specialized (e.g., women-only, we only read such-and-such books, etc.), or their meetings fill to capacity so fast that I never get a chance to rsvp - so I decided to start this one. I previously participated in a fantastic book club in Chicago, which gave me the opportunity to read some great books that I probably wouldn't have found on my own. I hope to continue that trend here! This is a mixed-gender book club for anyon …

Meet kindred book lovers in a local Meetup Book Club!  We read classic fiction, current fiction, and nonfiction paperbacks, rotating through these genres each month in a three-month cycle.  Read a new book every month.  Come to discuss the book, share stories, and make new friends!

We read and discuss books that are rooted in or inspired by history in all its shapes and colors. Fiction and non-fiction, both scholarly and popular. Stories that re-create the past. Journalists who tell us "what happened". Interpreters who openly argue a point of view or seek to illuminate the present through the past. There are also many opportunities to leave our armchairs for fun history-focused field trips to museums, walking tours, films, theater, author lectures, etc. For our book discus …

If the thought of Maxine Hong Kingston’s The Woman Warrior fascinates you and you've been pondering Murasaki Shikibu's The Tale of Genji for some time, then this is the book club for you!  Slice of Mooncake is based in San Francisco and will focus on literature primarily by Asian American authors, but will also embrace stories centered on Asian culture, history, and icons. Selection of readings will be suggested by both the Organizer and members, and include current fiction, nonfiction, classics …

We are a gathering of adult children's literature lovers. Bimonthly we get together to discuss a book. There are a wide variety of children's books that we will discuss, ranging from classics to those hot off the press. This is an open group; meaning all are welcome, there is no fee, and you are free to bring friends, suggest books, and lead discussions.

This group is for anyone who likes the horror and/or sci-fi genres. The members shape the group. There will be a book club, movie nights, new/classic/indie film outings, genre themed game nights and anything else that others may want to do.

Small groups will get together to read aloud to one another and appreciate the written and spoken word (and simply have a good time). Each person brings a short selection (fiction, poetry, nonfiction, whatever). Folks also bring drink and nibbles to share. Fancy or not. Meetings will vary; formats will evolve. My small kitchen will be the setting for some events; perhaps others will volunteer their kitchens as well. We may also decide to have thematic events, such as reading appropriate selectio …

This group is for people whom enjoy reading all types of books. Anything from a NY Times best seller to an old classic. There is no genre that will be ignored. The group is also for those who enjoy an adult beverage or two while discussing the merits of a good novel. We will meet monthly at various locations in midtown, Curtis Park, and Land Park.

Meetings are devoted to various genres, both contemporary and classic. Although the club is based in Berkeley, CA, book readers from any geographical area are welcome to join. The club's …

There's always room for one more book enthusiast in the Fremont Ladies' Book Club!
