We are a group of black women who love to read, want to read more and meet like minded women. We are here to inspire women to read, share literature, fellowship, and encourage others in the joy of reading. We meet once a month on a Saturday. We are an eclectic group of women and so are our reading selections. On our web site www.mochagirlsread.wordpress.com we have a inspirational book of the month posted every first Sunday; a children's book posted every Monday along with our book of the month.

My theory is that there are lots of people on Meetup who are looking for unique experiences, and I'd love to connect you all to the House Concert experience.   What is a House Concert? A house concert is an ev …

This group is for people who want to learn Irish or improve their Irish using a combination of lessons I create, children's books and traditional textbooks. The lessons will be loosely based on the book and CD set, Colloquial Irish: The Complete Course for Beginners (NY: Routledge, 2008, ISBN-13 978-0-415-38130-7). However, I'll be customizing some of the themes in the book, to make it pertain to life in the U.S., especially the Delaware Valley, where most of us live. So we'll be emphasizing sen …

This is a group to explore the alternatives, including collaborative p …
