****Note: What makes us DIFFERENT-

Instead of agreeing on one book to read for each meeting, we each read whatever nonfiction book we want, then share with the rest of the group. Our discussions are always fresh and interesting!

This isn't a typical book club. In fact, one of our members confided that she never refers to this meetup as her 'book club'. She prefers describing it as something like, 'a group of people who get together and talk about books'. We're independent readers who are curious about everything.

Books we've talked about cover an extremely wide range of topics; some examples include: the history of salt, a man lost at sea, why some technological developments should make us optimistic about the future of the planet, creativity at Pixar, neuroplasticity, American sub-cultures, biographies, the economics, geography and biology underpinning the development of the New World, the politics of mental illness, harnessing a positive mental attitude, the changing role of the police in the US, walking the Appalachian trail, communication in the workplace, Lincoln's role in the Civil War, personal brushes with Amish culture, the intersection of wine and history, how geography has shaped society, working for minimum wage, con artists, arctic survival, the true cost of health insurance, spies, pilots and much much much much more.****
