I set this up as I need more motivation to read regularly !! If you are reading this, you probably do too !! Plus I would like to meet other readers to chat about the last book read - and what better place than in one of Henley's fine venues over a glass of something ! I see myself as the club founder not the leader, so choosing the book and the venue rotates across us all ... For the moment we feel we have enough members, as a Book Club can only be so big, as since setting this up in Jan 2011 …

'Vedanta' means the 'end of knowledge'. It presents the philosophy of life and living to combine continual action with enduring peace. Vedanta is the digest of knowledge laid down by sages and thinkers from time immemorial. It belongs to one and all with no distinctions whatsoever. Swami Parthasarathy, the founder of the Vedanta Academy and its chapters worldwide, has translated subtle philosophic themes into practical application for business and living. He is a best selling author, corporate r …

How does it work? The Guildford Book Group meets once a month to discuss books and socialise in Guildford Surrey. The books are chosen by a vote, from nominations by the members. Come along, share your favourite book, or simply the one you're currently reading with other people. The meetings are on a Thursday evening at the end of each month. We’ve been meeting since 2003   Where do we meet? We always meet in a public venue rather than members' homes as some book groups do. This is almost always …

Do you know how the World is going to end? These authors do! We are a group of friends who realized that we are interested in post-apocalyptic books and as half joke decided to start a book club dedicated to it. We will be meeting once a month in a pub in Central London to chat about a pre-chosen post-apocalyptic themed book, as well as organizing movie nights and pub crawls. Also, we are an equal opportunity group and don't discriminate against those who are into dystopic lit, so if you fancy …

I have tried many book clubs, film clubs, and have yet to find the one that had a good balance between a really good discussion and a really good day/night out. So why not start one myself? Passionate about film and literature, and not one to pass up a good glass of wine or beer, this is a group for those who enjoy all of the above. Meetups to be held at various north of the river drinking establishments.

This is a London-based book club for everyone that wants to meet monthly to discuss a 'short' book over a drink. Whether it's because you're too busy or too lazy (like me) to read a novel, appreciate shorter books, or want to supplement your current book club, everyone is welcome. The aim is to meet once a month at a pub on a weekday evening to discuss the month's book whilst meeting new people and having a laugh in the process.   If you're on Facebook, why not join our group: http://www.faceboo …
