Hi Everyone! I started this meetup because there are so many books I want to read, and I think that discussing them with others will make it more fun, challenging, and fulfilling. My academic background is in Philosophy and Anthropology . . . but there is so much more to discover! This is a meetup for people who love learning and thinking about the world around them: sociology, history, philosophy, evolution, primatology, cognitive science, cultural studies, biographies, political science, curre …

I know everyone says their book club is different, but this time we mean it! I want to be in a book club that doesn't read Oprah's book of the month. I have no interest in reading Chicken Soup for the Soul, Twilight, or Eat, Pray, Love . I want to read silly books, smart books, graphic novels, romance novels, classics, books made into movies (and visa versa), books about movie stars and rock idols. I want to do this with a group of like minded individuals who don't adhere to the formulas of con …

Sick Minds is not your traditional/original book club. No romance novels, best sellers, Oprah's list or tear jerking books allowed. This book club will be reading bizarre and entertaining books that are also humorous and sometimes considered disturbing to the common folk. Death: A Life by George Pendle is one example. It is a humor book written in a memoir style about Death. One of my sons helped me name the group after I was trying to define a sick mind. He actually did something sick that I …
… The model is to attend the meeting, meet like-minded people, get the book we are reading, discuss the previous book's topics, lessons, or tools. We all have lives so we read one book per two months. We meet once per month to discuss the topic. Any and all questions. Feel free to ask.
