This diverse group meets in the city of San Francisco about once a month. We welcome suggestions and encourage voting about what types of books to read and what types of venues to drink in. (If you decide to join, please check out the polls and vote!) (Polls can be found under the "More" tab at the top, just below our Group Name.) We are very informal, meaning you are encouraged to come to a meetup even if you haven't finished the book, or haven't started it! It's Booze first and Books second, s …

I'm hoping to combine two things that I love: Literature and discussion about literature that takes place in a relaxed cafe atmosphere (nothing too fancy here & drinking is optional). A nice way to meet other literature lovers and smart conversationalists. Come and join the fun and expand your horizons a bit when it comes to literature! I do need some motivation at times to complete my reading list and maybe you do too? I'm a fan of classic literature (think Aeschylus, Dostoyevsky, Mann, Balzac, …

We are busy people who love to read. This book group will focus on reading short stories and short novels (under 250 pages) and discussing them over drinks. The group will be run informally and you are encouraged to attend even if you didn't finish the reading. We will meet once a month within the city of San Francisco.

Have you ever heard of Naked Girls Reading? It’s a group of ladies who enjoy giving readings of various works to a large audience au naturel. The group originated in Chicago two years ago when the founder’s husband caught his naked wife lying in repose focused intently on her book. At that moment, both agreed that there was something amazingly powerful about reading sans culottes. As a PhD literature grad student and a nudist, I have been doing this for years! And now, I think it’s the perfect t …

Meet other apocalypse sci fi lovers over drinks at various cozy bars in the city! Each month we will read a book with an apocalyptic setting picked by either the organizer or voted upon by members. P.S. Some people have asked about what the 1.00 fee is/how is it used.... Most meetup events charge a low fee because meetup costs to start a group. (when an organizer makes a group they have to pay before it is posted. This fee helps reimburse me for the money I paid, as well as cutting down on no s …

Meet other sushi and sake addicts in your area! We'll try different sushi places around the peninsula, attack the fish, drink up some sake, and then rattle our blah blah of what we think about the restaurant - or life in general.... The event limit is 15 people (occasionally more if venue capacity allows), depending on the place, we might have to sit in separate tables (hardly any sushi place can accommodate 15 people in one table). We order a few things and share with our table mates. I will s …

This is a group for women in their 30s who feel they are going through major transitions in life, i.e., career, family, new home, friendships/relationships, spirituality, etc. As a woman in my 30's, I definitely experienced this transition and I am still going through it now. It seems that the 30's is such an important stage in life when you are redefining yourself, establishing yourself and asserting who you are as an adult in the world. My purpose in creating this group is to create a space fo …

Hi ladies! I am new to the area and am looking to form fun and lasting friendships with intelligent, strong, positive and sassy women. You know who you are!

I saw a lot of mom-and-pop shops have popped up to discuss and teach spirituality. I also saw people in pain and their struggle in search of spiritualism. I've seen that pain closely in my life. Since I've worked on it for a long time, it became my moral responsibility to step in as an expert. I want to share my experience and knowledge with you. It's going to be a good deal for you. Before we start proceeding, we would also like to discuss some basic facts. Some of questions we'll ask would inc …

This is a group for all educators.
