About Quarters: A Personal Development Book Club in NYC

📚 About Our Club

This is an in-person book club for anyone who loves learning, good conversation, and meeting great people. It's as much about the community as it is about the books.

The idea is simple:

  • Every quarter, we choose one personal development theme.
  • Every month, we read one book on that theme.
  • Each meeting, we talk about it, connect with each other, and do something fun and practical with what we learned.

That’s it! :)

What makes this club feel a little different:

🧩 Structure (The Quarters)

Instead of jumping to a new topic every month, we organize the year into four Quarters (three months each).

At the start of each quarter, we decide on a theme (Communication, Creativity, Leadership, Relationships, etc.). Then each month, we read a different book connected to that theme.

The goal is to go deeper, connect ideas across books, and create conversations that build over time.

🫶 Community First

Meetings are social, interactive, and conversation-based, more like a great group dinner than a classroom. Come prepared, come half-prepared, or just come curious :)

We care more about thoughtful participation than perfect preparation.

🎨 Practical: We Actually Do the Thing

Each meeting includes a small practical component inspired by the quarter.

During our Communication quarter, we practiced giving short toasts in small groups. For a future Creativity quarter, that might mean a paint night. The idea is to leave with more than highlights and notes, to actually try things, connect, and have fun.

Come for one meeting or come every month. See you soon :)
