About us
Suggest new books or locations using this link: Baltimore Books and Brews Suggestions
It's hard to make friends as an adult. Come join a low-stakes kind of book club where we hang out, chat about our monthly book, and build community.
Didn't finish the book? Only watched the movie? Hated it? Just want to listen to other people talk about a book you've never read? Everyone is welcome!
We'll rotate breweries or coffee shops for meet ups once a month (usually the 3rd Saturday of the month).
What to expect:
- To encourage and spark conversations we'd like to open meet ups by going around the room, introducing ourselves by rating the book 1-5 stars and a couple sentences about what you thought about the book.
- At the end of the meeting we’ll spin a wheel full of genres for a random genre and then use that to select a book from out Suggestion list at random for future events.
- Events planned a few months in advance to give everyone more time to find, place on hold, and read the book.
- We want your suggestions! - we really value the input from the group and wanted to keep all those great book and location suggestions in one spot where they won't get lost for future meetups.

November Book: Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid
Location: Bird in HandEveryone knows DAISY JONES & THE SIX, but nobody knows the reason behind their split at the absolute height of their popularity . . . until now.
Daisy is a girl coming of age in L.A. in the late sixties, sneaking into clubs on the Sunset Strip, sleeping with rock stars, and dreaming of singing at the Whisky a Go Go. The sex and drugs are thrilling, but it’s the rock ’n’ roll she loves most. By the time she’s twenty, her voice is getting noticed, and she has the kind of heedless beauty that makes people do crazy things.
Also getting noticed is The Six, a band led by the brooding Billy Dunne. On the eve of their first tour, his girlfriend Camila finds out she’s pregnant, and with the pressure of impending fatherhood and fame, Billy goes a little wild on the road.
Daisy and Billy cross paths when a producer realizes that the key to supercharged success is to put the two together. What happens next will become the stuff of legend.
The making of that legend is chronicled in this riveting and unforgettable novel, written as an oral history of one of the biggest bands of the seventies. Taylor Jenkins Reid is a talented writer who takes her work to a new level with Daisy Jones & The Six, brilliantly capturing a place and time in an utterly distinctive voice.
