The original Not Oprah Approved Book Club! Since 2008, we have been reading Oprah shunned books and we would love you to join us! Our meetings and members are quite laid back. If you don't like a book, you don't have to finish it (please give it a try though - first chapter or even first few pages). The meetings are half talking about the book and half catching up with each other. New people are always welcome! Members select books as a group at each meeting. We want your book suggestions. Any t …

YogaQuest started as a class and has become a community! YQ, the studio (or YQdio), is inclusive of people of all shapes, sizes and fandoms. If you have been scared away from other wellness classes because they're too hardcore or too crunchy - you've finally found your place. The word "yoga" literally means union - we want to bring people together - because, after all, isn't geeking out with others a lot more fun?! The YQdio will offer "regular" yoga, in addition to our Original flavor - as well …

Join us to discuss interesting reads in science and design. Monthly meetings over coffee or a drink.

This is a group for anyone interested in writing Middle Grade and Young Adult stories and novels. We will meet twice a month; one time to quietly read and then openly critique 8-12 pages from something you're working on, and the other time to just take time away from our busy day to focus on writing for an hour or two. I'd like to find 5-8 other writers who want to form a little community to help each other and improve our own writing, while sharing successes. You do not have to be published to …

Welcome! This group is for anyone interested in improving their writing. We'll meet weekly to read over and edit each others' writing pieces. Over the long-term I'd like the group to be a resource for writers of any kind. I'd like us to be able to share tips, books, and strategies. My goal is that each one of us contributes to improving each others' writing. Join us!

The modern book group of today is in some ways still a push for women's intellectual autonomy. Think of this book club as a refuge for women who want to cultivate their minds outside of our current culture's norm of watching television or films. This is a casual, laid back, friendly book club discussion about the books we are reading. This book club meets in the Saint Paul Midway area. This book club may or may not be currently open to new members.  Due to the personal nature of book club discus …

Writing comedy and humor of any form is not easy. Doing it on a regular basis is even harder. This comedy/humor writing group is open to anyone of any level who writes in any format. We meet each week for an hour or two. The length will depend on the space, if the room is reserved, the number of people who show up, blah, blah, blah. We'll start off writing, then reading, probably BSing and then, maybe, drinking or eating. We'll give you writing prompts if needed. Read what you wrote that day or …

This is a group for people who refer to themselves (or have been referred to by others) as Geeks. …or Nerds. …or Hippies. …or Freaks. …or Dweebs. …or Dorks. …or any other miscellaneously mis-fitting, socially non-conforming term that can't be classified as being considered "mainstream" (as if anyone really knows what THAT is), and probably isn't nearly as derogatory today as it was a few decades back, because, these days, we're taking over the WORLD, man! 'Cause we RULE now! (Safety in n …

We write with pen and paper (leave your laptop at home, unless you need asssistive tech) to prompts during the meetup. We are all about the creativity and support, not critique. No degree of separation. No fame. Just writers writing. Authentic. Whimsical. Vulnerable. "It's all true, none of it's true, don't ask." We often spend too much time thinking about writing instread of writing. Our group meets to spend time writing. After we get our coffee, we pick a prompt (phrases, pictures) and a time …

North Loop Ladies...let's get together to read & discuss some great books and socialize at one of our neighborhood establishments. Plan to meet once per month, beginning late December or just after the new year. Hoping to meet many great North Loop (Downtown Minneapolis) residents!

I've been looking to join a book club for quite some time, but I never found one that appealed to me. After a lot of unproductive grumbling, I've decided to try starting one myself. Everyone's A Critic (EAC) is open to anyone who enjoys books and isn't shy about sharing their opinions about said books. I try to encourage a diverse reading selection, so please feel free to offer suggestions (fiction or nonfiction). Members usually send me suggestions and then we do a poll to pick a selection. …

This is a group for those who love ideas, culture, great conversations, and staying active all year long. We read works of (primarily) fiction with a strong sense of time and place, ideally written by an author from the locale in which it’s set. Traveling the world in our reading, it seems only fitting that the discussion be also on the move! So we take our conversations out-of-doors for a walk around our wonderful local Twin cities neighborhoods, lakes, parks, etc. and conclude for final though …

Welcome to the Childhood Nostalgia Book Club! This is a Minneapolis and St. Paul based traditional book club with a delightful twist. Just like most book clubs, we meet in a local Twin Cities venue on a monthly basis to discuss a selected novel while enjoying good company and drinks. However, instead of focusing on the current NY Times best seller, our book club reads a piece that was enjoyed during our younger years. This group is most likely to be enjoyed by women, though any grownup who appr …
