Meetup topics: Book Club

Founded: August 8, 2009

Interested in expanding your social circle and being exposed to books you may never have considered before? Let's get the ball rolling and make a plan and START this thing. How about books that were eventually made into movies so we can read the book and watch the movie and have even more to discuss.

We can suggest books and as soon as we've come to a decision about where to start, we'll set up a date and time and place where we can discuss the book and suggest the next couple of books.

I'd like people to use the facebook link as well/instead as this will eventually mean no more joining fees, etc.
