24F - Spooky Book Club Friends!

[EDIT] HI! Wow I didn't know there would be this much interest! Thanks so much to everyone who has reached out. I feel that we have far more than anticipated as it is so I am going to close invites for now! If you're disappointed I am sorry to hear that, but encourage you to start your own! Clearly there are interested people. Happy Halloween everyone!

Hi everyone! I've posted once before but thought it might be nice to have a more constructive invitation for friendship. I'm 24F who recently moved to the area as a newly wed! I've always loved horror movies, procedurals and a book that makes me jump, so thought a year-round spooky book club would be a perfect way to make some friends in the area!

- This is an entirely free club, I'm not looking to charge a fee or run a huge operation. We'd all just buy our own copies of the books.

- One book per month (crime, thriller, horror, slasher, procedural or haunting themed books. They will be rotated to match seasons!)

- Books are announced at the start of the month

- Meetings would be at the end of the month, an hour to chat about the book, and another to simply socialize. It can become a bit less formal the more friendly we become with each other.

- To start we can meet publicly in locations such as cafes and book stores, in the Sacramento area. Eventually if we're all comfortable I'd be happy to host at my home! Ideally we'd move into having a potluck style meeting.

- As a lesbian, I can assure this is a queer friendly space! I would love to welcome people of all ages so long as they are 21+

- I know that the October reading has a bit of a head start on us but I think it's early enough in the month to still have us kick off for the spookiest month of the year!

My personal vision for this beyond getting in at least one book a month, would be to find some genuine friendships united by a great piece of literature. I'd love to have 2-6 other members and just have a consistent social thing to add to all our calendars.

Please feel free to DM if you're interested in joining or put any questions below!

If you want to connect on other interests: Reading, Writing, Crochet, Nature, Cooking, Baking, Interior Design, Film and TV Watching are all hobbies of mine! As I said, feel free to DM!

39F looking for a few genuine, long-term friends

Hi everyone! I’m a 39-year-old woman hoping to meet a few people who are also looking for genuine, long-term friendships. I'm located in Citrus heights but have no issues driving to hang.

A little about me: I enjoy reading, watching movies, crafting, gardening, and spending time hanging out by the river. I've been described as "quirky" and sometimes have a difficult task finding my people. Not a big fan of small talk and I like to get into deep conversations.i would love to find people I can chat with regularly, grab coffee or food with, or eventually hang out with in regularly in person. Maybe book or crafting club??

I’m not looking to collect a huge list of acquaintances—just hoping to find a few good people who are kind, genuine, and interested in building an actual friendship over time.

If you’re also looking for some new friends, feel free to message me and tell me a little about yourself! 😊

38M - New to Sacramento with my pug

Hey Sacramento 👋

I’m brand new to the area and moved to Midtown a few days ago. I live alone with my pug, so you’ll probably see the two of us wandering around town looking slightly lost.

I moved here to be closer to Sac State while I work on my MS in Business Analytics. School keeps me pretty busy, but outside of that I love cooking (mostly vegetarian Indian food), hanging out at cafés with my laptop, and listening to music. Hip-hop, jazz, funk, and soul are my favorites — Tupac has been in heavy rotation lately.

I’m also into documentaries, history, older movies, psychology, sociology, mental health, and just having interesting conversations about life.
I used to be much more into drinking and smoking, but those days are mostly behind me. These days I’m happier grabbing coffee, trying some good food, exploring the city, going for a walk, catching some live music, or just hanging out.

I’ve bounced around quite a bit — lived in Europe, the Midwest, and the West Coast, and spent several years in SF working in fintech before deciding to change things up and go back to school.
I’m naturally a bit of a loner, but I’m trying to make more of an effort to meet people and build a circle here. So… what’s up, Reddit? 😂

If any of this sounds like your vibe, say hey. Always down to grab coffee, explore Sacramento, or meet some cool people.
