Fiction or non-fiction, paperback or hardcover, you'll read a new book every month. Come to laugh, share stories and make new friends!

Read a good book. Meet new and interesting people who've read it too.  Feed your brain...and your stomach. For a list of our past reads, please see the calendar or the photo album.  Our focus is on finding worthwhile literature and still covering a variety of eras, countries and fiction (and once in a while, non fiction) genres.  We try to find books that are a manageable length (200-350 pages) and that make us think. (Our members are well-educated, but note that the majority of us do not have e …

As a published writer of non-fiction (essays, op-eds, books), I know the importance of networking with other writers to ensure we carve out time to write, as well as to critique each others' work. The mission of this group is to do both, whether we write about gay issues or not. The goal is therefore to build a supportive and accepting environment to share our work, and provide constructive criticism. You need not be a published writer...just LOVE TO WRITE!

Do you like vampire books? Read and discuss different vampire novels-both classics and newer books. Possibly also non-fiction works about vampire legends. Anyone who likes vampire novels like Anne Rice , L.A. Banks , Laurell K. Hamilton or Charlaine Harris and others should join. At the end of each meetup we will decide what to read next.

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 …

Meet kindred book lovers in the Astoria Book Club Meetup Group! Fiction or non-fiction, paperback or hardcover; a different book every month. Come to laugh, share stories and make new friends!

I decided to start the group because I cannot find a book club that assigns books that are more to my liking. So I am hoping to find other girls who will enjoy the type of books I love to read. I read both fiction and non fiction, but my main interest is stories that touch upon specific things: feminism, sexuality, mental health, etc. So join my group if you are looking to stay local in Brooklyn, like to drink and like to read.

There are tons of book clubs, but I could not find a book club around Brooklyn that explored queer literature. Womp. As a lesbian, I would like to read books with characters and stories that I can empathize with, understand or at the least simply recognize. So I thought, fudge it, I will make my own group so I can explore queer lit. with my queer family. This Book Club will cover queer fiction and non-fiction. Some books will have clear queer main characters, while other books may be more subtle …

Sick of Baby Einstein? Looking for a little bit of adult conversation? Enjoy reading? Then this Meetup group is for you. I am a former high school English teacher who has decided to leave the school classroom for a bit to stay home. I enjoy being home, but I found I really missed talking about books with people. That was the initial impetus for starting the group. I also needed to read something more advanced than Dr. Seuss to ward off brain atrophy (ha ha). We read everything from ficti …

This club's goal is to have great discussions on renowned works in both fiction and non-fiction. This would include great works of literature, history, autobiographies, biographies, plays etc. Great books and great discussions are our goal; books that profoundly explore human nature. Especially for fiction it would be great to hear from people who have read the book at different phases of their lives and to hear how their opinions of the book have changed. We will have monthly meeting w …

Hey ladies! Do you like reading fantastic novels, memoirs and moving non-fiction (think... Time Traveler's Wife, The Devil Wears Prada, The Glass Castle, My Sister's Keeper, The Secret Life of Bees)?? If you enjoy a glass of wine and are looking to meet up with other girls in the city, make friends, and chat about a great book you just read, then this club is for you! I will set up a poll to vote on a new book each month and then meet up at a coffee shop, lounge or restaurant to discuss the b …

The group meets the last Wednesday of every month to discuss New Yorker essays and short stories. The PLUS is a pre-meeting, separate discussion of a book ( fiction or non-fiction ) chosen in advance by the group. A member may participate in The New Yorker meeting without joining the book discussion. All essays, short stories, and books are chosen at each meeting by the group. In some cases the group may decided to devote multiple sessions to a book.
