We're a book club primarily, reading contemporary fiction and some YA or whatever else we vote for each month!  We like good food and book discussions and try to combine the two as often as possible.  But we're also an Alamo Drafthouse sing-alongs, costume drama parties, movie nights, plays, concerts, Bookpeople events, whatever else you can think of, club. I've been in Austin about two years, and this club has been a (social) life-saver.  I've made amazing new girlfriends, and I can't wait to m …

*This group is currently limited to attendees of Carrie's 2011 Fall workshop*  Let's build on what we started at Carrie's class.  We can post discussions on the message board like suggesting books to read, topics to discuss at our next play-date and ask for suggestions on new challenges that come up.  Maybe you know of a cool lecture or event coming up.  Feel free to post that or other ideas for gathering too.  I think there's even a feature to take a poll.

Curious about Misty Curious?  This group is named after my nickname...because as you might guess, I am insatiably CURIOUS.

I do hope you'll join us! Misty
