Book group, or groups?

[nora-rocket.livejournal.com]

Hello all:

I am a recent transplant to the area, and I'm interested in joining (or starting...) a book group.  Any of you bookish types have a reading club that you frequent or of which you know?  I asked at Porter Square Books if they hosted or knew of any and I was shocked to get blank looks.  Are there any other nerdy hot spots I should check with about reading groups?  Ideally, I'd like a group that reads lit fic, narrative nonfic, SF/fantasy, female authors, or feminist writing--or any combinations of the above (woman-penned fiction, feminist SF...).  Aiming for a book-a-month pace.

If nothing like this exists, I'd be all for starting a casual book club meet-up of the type I seek--any interest?

elements has been talking for a little while about wanting to start some kind of book club focused on feminist sf/f.
I'm pretty sure she's out of the country right now, but I bet when she gets back she might be interested in chatting with you. (I'll try to remember to point her towards this post.)

Sounds like there's enough interest to get something going here.
