Meet fabulous women from Naperville and read good books! We are open to women of all backgrounds who live in Naperville. Once a month, we meet for our book discussions, rotating to a different woman's home or a local venue. The genre varies. We strive to select books that will provoke a thoughtful and intellectual discussion. Questions are prepared in advance to guide the ~20-minute discussion and everyone is given a chance to voice their thoughts and opinions. Here's a list of recent books we h …
Missing the opportunity for good conversation, laughs that make your belly hurt, and real women who understand you?

Meet some local women, make new friends, and visit with some you've met in the past.

These are the voyages of the Western Suburban Science-Fiction Book Club... Our continuing mission: to seek out the most compelling, discussion-provoking science-fiction (and occasionally, fantasy) novels and gather together to chat about them over dinner. It's a pretty good mission. Reading sci-fi suggests certain nerdish... leanings, but don't be afraid: our group is all-inclusive. Yes, I'm sure a few of us qualify as geeks, but we're all socially well-adjusted and reasonably freshly showered t …
I love to read and would love to belong to a book club. I live in Hyde Park and would like to form a group with people that live in the same general area. We could get together once a month (or every other month) to discuss a chosen book and enjoy each other's company. I'm in my 50's, but it would be great to have members of various ages join the club.

This group is for moms from the western suburbs who can barely find enough time to get everything done, but somehow find the time to dig into a good book. We're looking for moms who want to get together at a local restaurant, once a month, to casually discuss our book of choice, as well as anything else under the moon, while enjoying good food, good wine and good company!

There are a few other book clubs out there, but not many in the NW corner of the city. I struggled to find one that was just for women and had spots available at their upcoming events. So, I started my own group. I'm also hoping to expand beyond the monthly book discussions. It would be great to meet other women that are interested in dinners, wine tasting, etc. in the city or in the surrounding suburbs. I'm in my mid-30's so I titled the group 30s (ish). If you're age is above or below that …
