The Self Inquiry Discussion Group provides an opportunity to meet with others involved in the search for Truth and Self-definition via Self-inquiry. Our meetings consist of an informal and open discussion of paths, teachers, techniques, philosophical and spiritual systems, and possible ways and means for expediting the search. The discussions are not academic or theoretical, but rather focus on our own personal experiences as seekers. There is usually also a period of silent meditation at some p …

This group is a book club with a twist. It is a book club for writers. Why are some books popular? What makes them bestsellers? What can we as writers learn from these books? I started this book club because traditional book clubs are too vanilla for me. If you are a committed writer, then this meetup is for you. We meet once a month in downtown Toronto. Other events are scheduled as we think of them. Each month, we will chose a work of fiction and examine it from the perspective of a writer (an …

Hi Everyone!  First of all, we typically meet in the St. Catharines area!! I wanted to start this group because I love reading. I also think sharing a book with someone helps you to understand it from a different perspective. This club is for women who love reading and want to socialize with others. I plan to create monthly meetups to discuss the given book and socialize.  We are currently taking turns hosting the meetings at members homes.  The addresses are therefore never advertised publicly …

The Happy Therapist Book Club seeks to help rejuvenate and contribute to therapy skills through books and friendship.

This group is to help us connect to topics such as: -philosophies of healing -therapist wellness -expandin …

We are a group of mothers with babies and toddlers who enjoy reading just about anything. We operate like a standard book club, but we bring our babies, toddlers and kiddies to our meetings with us.  We all do! We read books, but we also read articles, listen to books on tape, etc. Mothers with babies or toddlers are welcome to come to meetings with your infants.  What a convenient way to both care for your child (nurse them too if you like!) and talk about grown-up books at the same time! Our m …

“Truly fine poetry must be read aloud. A good poem does not allow itself to be read in a low voice or silently. If we can read it silently, it is not a valid poem: a poem demands pronunciation. Poetry always remembers that it was an oral art before it was a written art. It remembers that it was first song." Jorge Luis Borges This is a meetup group for people who like to read, and be read to. Everyone is welcome!  Bring a passage or two that you like and recite it with the group, then we can tal …

This group is for people who are interested in the spiritual side of life. We will be reading spiritual books, having discussions based around certain topics, going on retreats, and attending spiritual events. Books are not mandatory to be read but are a focal point of conversation. I recently moved back to the area and I am looking to find others with like minded interests.

Hi there, I have a background in undergraduate level western philosophy from ancient to modern. I take a special interest in cognitive science, and the philosophy of mind, but love all areas of philosophy, as really they all come into play. My vision for a group is to establish a book club of sorts. We will meet in cozy pubs around T.O. or anywhere we can have lively and stimulating discussions. I will act as high-level organizer but we can take turns facilitating discussions and presentations. …

We are calling out to all those like-minded busy professionals who love books, love how it feels to read, enjoy the journey of reading a good book, and eagerly seek an opportunity to share and discuss their thoughts about their latest reads over a cup ( or 2) of good joe; but struggle to find the time to read because of their engaging schedules. Come join us once a month at a coffee shop, anywhere in the Toronto area to reconnect with your love for reading. We will meet on a Friday night or Satu …

Hate the feeling of finishing a really good book only to realize you are the only one who read it and have no one to gossip about it with?! Then this is the group for you! This is a group for the busy women who don't have time to read a 600 pg classic novel that's half in Latin, but would enjoy the motivation to read a popular chick lit book. We will meet up, talk about the book, drink some wine/coffee, and have a good time. There is no pressure to finish the books to attend, just as long as you …

This meetup has been established as a service to the Ismaili community. It aims to enable single, professional South Asian Ismailis  (35+) (i.e. originally from Bangladesh, India, Pakistan) who are looking for a suitable life partner to have a chance to meet and connect with one another..in a relaxed and enjoyable environment. Too often professionals are so busy in their daily lives, they have little time to slow down, socialize and find their ideal soul mate.. In North America, this is especial …

This is a group for anyone interested in reading and having discussions about books that you may never pick up to read yourself. All the meanwhile, we will be brunching around Toronto and trying a new brunch place around the city every 5-6 weeks. Are you a book lover and a foodie, then this is the club for you. Come out and meet interesting people while trying the latest brunch hot spots in Toronto. The club is co-ed and all are welcome!

Hi Everyone! This group is designed, really, as a meeting place for people who are interested in meeting new friends in Toronto and love to read, or talk about other cool hobbies like makeup and shopping. The Book club will focus on fun and light literature (i.e. if Tolstoy is your thang, maybe this meetup is not?). Books that I have in mind are the Harry Potter Series, the Shopaholic series, and any other fun fiction or chick lit that you might be interested in! Ages 20-30 preferred :)

Do you enjoy reading fiction books with nice like minded people....come out and share your reading choices in central North York. The location in mind is both TTC accessible and with free parking. Many live along the Bathurst Street and Yonge Street corridor but north of Eglinton. Why shlep out downtown when you can just come around the corner.
