Who says book clubs have to be held at boring old Starbucks? If you'd like to make a commitment to reading more AND you've been dying to try out some of the fabulous bars, restaurants and cute little coffee shops and tea rooms LA has to offer, this is the book club for you! I'm planning on alternating between American classics one month, to modern literature the next to keep a good balance. This book club IS a democracy though, so all suggestions are welcome and will be voted upon!

Join others interested in history and literature for stimulating conversation.  This book club meets monthly and is led by the Museum's Executive Director Mark Rothman.

We are a group of women who live in Pasadena/South Pasadena, love to read good literature (modern and classics) and enjoy making new friends. We meet each month at a different member's home for an evening of appetizers, socializing and book discussion.  

In 2008, we started as a group of adults who loves all things Harry Potter and realized that we love other geeky things like Lord of the Rings, Percy Jackson, Hunger Games, Star Wars, Star Trek, Dr. Who and much more! We will keep it pure Harry Potter until the last movie but will start integrating new themed meetups later in 2011 to celebrate our other geekulture obsessions. If you are 21 years or older and want to partake of some geeky fun, come check us out at our next meetup! The Los A …

Advice from Cher Horowitz from the classic film Clueless: "You should read one non-school book a week." This advice applies not only to high school girls, but also to lesbians, queers, gay ladies. The LA Gay Lady Book Club is for women who want to read one cool book a month, and we'll be taking suggestions on what to read from the club's members. The books we read may or may not be lesbian/queer themed, but the Ladies who attend probably will be ;) (gay/lesbian/bi/queer, trans family welcome) Re …

Valley Girls Tuesday Night Book Club is about enjoyable reading for women who want to experience good books--period.  Doesn't matter the author, genre or medium.  In fact, I would encourage you to try different media when reading.  Try a book on CD/tape every once and a while--as long as it's unabridged.  Makes those car rides go a lot faster!  I'm not a slave to having the author be a woman or it necessarily even about being 'women's issues' (whatever those are) but would like to pick interesti …

A group for families to share their love of SF & Fantasy through activities and events the whole family can enjoy.

Recommended for families with kids showing interest in YOUR fa …

Do you love reading books such as "Confessions of a Shopaholic", "Bridget Jones's Diary" and "The Devil Wears Prada"? Do you love reading books covered with shoes, fashion and funky female cartoons? Then you are probably a chick lit lover! Although not the most sophisticated of genres these types of books are fun, humorous and relate to most of our everyday lives. Not all of us are interested in reading the classics and that's okay because this club is for women ages 20-infinite that want to mee …

It is a meetup for Real Vampires, Witches, Werekin, Otherkin, Donors, Supporters, and those who are simply curious about us. This group is NOT about role playing games, vampire literature, movies, or TV (although most of us love True Blood), we are also NOT a free resource for reality TV shows (see our media policy). Also we cannot turn you into a vampire (see above about this is not an RPG group). You do not need to be a vampire or a donor or any other label to join. In order to join this grou …

… Are you interested in philosophy, science, literature, education, spirituality, health, business, psychology and the arts? Do you occasionally need a warm hug? If you answered "yes" to these questions, then we cordially invite you to become a member.

I love all kinds of books, but especially Science Fiction and Fantasy. When I finish a really good book, I love to be able to discuss some of the ideas the author introduced, check my understanding of some of the plot twists and character development, and generally just say how much I liked or hated the book. If you would also like to discuss new books, ideas and authors with SF&F fans, this group is for you! Join us each month for a new book, decided by poll.
