I'm An Introvert Who Spent Years Trying To Make Friends. With 1 Change, I Suddenly Had Dozens. Story by Jay Krasnow, HuffPost "I asked people to meet at a local venue, bring the books they were already reading, and invited them to do a “show-and-tell” CliffsNote-like summary of their books for the group. I also asked them to read the first line of their books.... Connecting with other people through books seemed natural, but I didn’t know if anyone would come. ... Almost a year after my first anniversary event, my Meetup continues growing. Today, close to 700 people have joined my group. With so many regulars attending weekly events, I made dozens of connections within the first year alone.")
