Manhattan Smutty Book Club -

The book for each month will be chosen at the book club before. This month's book is Cubs & Campfires by Dylan Drake. Luca Torres, struggling journalism graduate, never meant to take a vow of celibacy. It was just a dumb idea from a job interview gone wrong. He never thought they’d approve the article. Or make his future career conditional on delivering it. Now, with no choice but to steer clear of temptation for the summer, he takes the most isolated job he can find: a fire lookout in the rural and picturesque mountains of Washington State. However, his goal becomes much harder with the arrival of the husky and flirtatious Artair Osmond, a musician and wilderness enthusiast who takes up camp nearby. Now he must decide what he really desires: the career at the prestigious newspaper, or the big, bearded bear he can’t get out of his head. Please join us at Cornerstone Tavern, 961 2nd Ave, New York, NY (51st and 2nd) for great conversation, laughs, and friendship. Look for our signs, and listen for the laughter. We are often in the back of Cornerstone behind the curtain, which is actually a different restaurant called the Stags Head. We start at 7pm, but feel free to come early before happy hour ends at 7. People usually start to drift in by 6:30pm.

“Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow” by Gabrielle Zevin

Join us for our May book club pick “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow” by Gabrielle Zevin! We’ll meet at the Weehawken Farmers Market, a great opportunity to peruse local finds before settling in for a fun discussion!! We will post an exact meeting spot at the farmers market once it starts back up again at the end of April As always, no pressure to read the book, our goal is to build community 😊 A little more about the book- The novel follows Sadie Green and Sam Masur, two friends who meet as children and reconnect in college through their shared passion for video game design. Along with their collaborator Marx, they build a successful gaming company, creating immersive worlds that reflect their inner lives. The story spans decades, exploring creativity, ambition, love, identity, and the complexities of collaboration. It’s less about romance in a traditional sense and more about the deep, evolving bond between Sadie and Sam—how they hurt each other, support each other, and create together. Themes include the meaning of success, the cost of genius, and how people cope with trauma and loss.
