If you like to read and discuss books, this is the place for you! In the group, you'll meet kindred book lovers who come together to discuss a variety of topics. We mainly read non-fiction books - history, politics, religion, current events and economics. Every couple of months we read a book of fiction to keep us well-rounded. Our discussions are a way to explore the concepts and facts presented by our reading. It's a wonderful way to learn, share and keep our brains active. Come join us!

We are a group of book lovers that meet once a month to discuss.....books. We like to read books from all genres, though usually fiction, we have thrown in a non-fiction a time or two. During the monthly meetups, we choose the next book. Actually, we tend to stay 2 months in advance so everyone has a chance to get the book from the library if they want. How we choose books is a little different too. We don't really discuss the book before reading it. Someone at the meeting suggests a book they w …

I am interested in starting a book club in the Ellensburg area to meet new people, step away from the TV, and get back to one of my first loves, reading fiction. I'm thinking we meet every couple weeks for coffee and share a story. At the moment I am reading Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer. Let me know if you are interested.
