I am starting this club because none of the groups that currently exist match up to the vision that I have. This Queens based urban book club is open to both men and women in their 20s or 30s. Individuals from all walks of life are welcome. Most of the books chosen to review will be urban themed…but not all. All members will have the opportunity to select a book to review!
There are no upcoming Meetups.

Each month, we select a category of nonfiction to read, all members are welcome to make book suggestions in the chosen category, and then the recommended …

We're looking for other intellectually curious, like-minded 20somethings (a vague guideline) in Astoria (another vague guideline) to read them with us, share some food, drink, and sweet convo. The Criteria For Choosing Said Good Books: Magical language (with a healthy dash of magical realism), fresh voices (love a debut) irreverent to painfully relevant, growing up, growing old, dying, coming back to life, urban culture to Southern idyllicy, savory books that y …

This is a group for members who just love urban fantasy and some paranormal romance. I don't have too many friends who would do, so would love to meet up with some of you and discuss it. It's mainly focused on urban fantasy series, though if you guys happen to find an amazing novel, that's okay too. Favorites of mine and the kind of series I hope to discuss are Hunger Games (ok not quite UF, but amazing), Fever Series, Kate Daniels, Mortal Instruments, Vampire Academy, Chicagoland Vampires, e …
I enjoy reading a lot of serious books. But, I also enjoy reading urban fiction. I love the drama, the dealings, the thug romances and the swagger. I am looking for like minded people who would enjoy picking a book every month that we can all read and then get together and talk about it

You know who you are. White Wolf gamers that are long in the tooth. Cyberpunk players that remember 2013(!) ADnD folk that still have 1st ed sheets somewhere. We all played paper and LARP RPGs back in the day. We may dust off polyhedral plastic once in a while, when our too-cool friends and colleagues aren't looking. Our old game pals eBayed their books or went to crazytown and really believe they are sparkily vampires. Bottom line is almos …
