About us
We are back to meeting in person, but there may be opportunities to meet up online as well...sooo keeping the name (for now) as Atlanta Dining (In and Out) bookclub...although we are more "out" than in:)...these days.
Each member will have an opportunity to select a book and a restaurant that best matches the theme or setting of the current book selected for monthly book club discussion. I had a similar book club while living in Newport Coast and the book club members and I had a blast connecting each month to discuss our books and dine out. I made some great connections and life-long friendships. I am hoping the same for the Atlanta Dining Out Bookclub Meetup.
Please note over time...we continue to evolve and are now adding group trips and special events to the meetup. If needed, then we can turn a group event into both event and online book club meetup:)...but hoping you will be open to trying even more new adventures as we continue to read, connect, and support one another:).
