Book Club? (Charlotte, Eastover, Northwest: new home, neighborhood, university)

[WonderBooger]

Just arrived in Charlotte this week - moved from the Pacific Northwest. My fiance's job relocated to Ft. Mill, SC.

I'm looking to start a book club to meet some great new people. I would love to host monthly meetings at my place (I live near the Mint Museum of Art....I think the neighborhood is called Eastover?).

Please shoot me an e-mail (jleiden@gmail.com) if you're interested!

Hi Jessica,

I just moved to Charlotte two weeks ago and am looking for a bookclub. I saw your posting from last May and assume you've probably gotten something up and running by now. I was wondering if you'd let me know what you've found as I have always loved being part of a bookclub and am anxious to find a "new home".

Thanks,
Cathy

P.S. I, too, live near Eastover.

I am new to Charlotte myself and been looking for a book club as well. I live in the Ballantyne area not sure if this is close to Eastover or not. I went to the library and they have monthly book club meetings, they have the books list posted ahead of time so you know which book to read for the next 4 or 5 months. I didn't attend any of these meetings yet since I have been busy with other things. Here is the website if you want to check it out The Public Library of Charlotte & Mecklenburg County

A good resource to find not only a bookclub but other social groups as well is Do something, Learn something, Share something, Change something - Meetup.com. They have groups with lots of different interests.

Did you hear back from Jessica? I would like to get into a book club as well and do not live too far from you...

There is also a new group I found for people new to the Charlotte area called New to Charlotte. You can check it out at New to Charlotte (Charlotte, NC) - Meetup (http://www.meetup.com/newtocharlotte/ - broken link)

I like to start a book club for spiritual reading like Seat of the Soul. I live in South park area. If you are interested, please let me know

International House has a book group: International House: International Book Club .

Any book clubs in the University City general area (other than the Meetup groups)?

Anyways, have you checked meetup website? There are a bunch of book clubs already, I'm pretty sure there's one for spiritual reading.
