This group is being started for women who live in the Kentlands , Gaithersburg or other areas and wish to meet other women who like to read women authors and make new friends.  We will pick a book by a female author each month and meet to discuss it.  Sometimes we may view movies that have been made from books and compare them to the book.  This will be a chance to make this group what the members want it to be and to get an opportunity to get in on the beginning of the group as it forms.

Meet other women who are interested in the topic of self-improvement and psychology books. Discuss a variety of life topics that focus on improving the self, from personal strength to living authentically. We discuss the advice offered in relevant books.

Join us for discussions on the latest topics in science and technology. Meet local authors in the fields of computers, math and engineering.
