What we’re about

We're a passionate bunch of book nerds who love new ideas and big thinking. The BA Book club is a non-fiction club that reads innovative books on science, history, economics, and philosophy, but we're open to anything reasonable.

No whining. No getting offended. Just lively intellectual conversation with other lifelong learners who are passionate about sharing their curiosity about the world.

Let’s discuss: "The Sexual Evolution" by Nathan Lents
Annette & Graeme's House, 655 SE 68th Avenue, Portland, OR, US
What if sex wasn’t just about reproduction but about survival, creativity, and connection?

Nathan Lents’ The Sexual Evolution takes us on a hilarious, eye-opening safari through the animal kingdom—where clownfish switch genders, birds form lifelong same-sex bonds, and humans come off looking, well… a little predictable.

It’s evolution with a wink, biology with a punchline, and a reminder that Mother Nature has a wild imagination.
