What members read between meetings

A.A.'s own literature does most of the heavy lifting between meetings in New Hampshire. These are the books most often spotted on a member's bookshelf, with a short note on what each one is for. Each card is tagged with its language.

The book Bill W. and Dr. Bob wrote first, in 1939. Most members pick up a copy in their first week or two and keep it close.

Bill W.'s longer essays on each Step and each Tradition. The usual companion read once the Big Book starts to feel familiar.

Look on Amazon

A short, practical book about the day-to-day of staying sober. Often the one a sponsor suggests in the first month.

Look on Amazon

One short A.A. reading for each day of the year, with a thought to carry into it. Members often keep a copy on the kitchen counter.

About AA in New Hampshire

The southern tier: Manchester, Nashua, and the commuter belt

Granite State Intergroup serves the densely populated southern tier of the state, including Manchester, Nashua, Concord, and the surrounding Hillsborough and Merrimack county communities. Manchester has the largest single concentration of meetings in the state, with a weekday calendar that includes noon meetings near the downtown medical center, after-work groups across the city, and late-night options. Nashua and the Massachusetts-border towns (Salem, Derry, Pelham, Hudson) have a strong commuter-culture calendar serving residents who work in the Boston metro. Concord, the state capital, anchors weekday meetings serving the state-government workforce.

Seacoast: Portsmouth, Dover, and the Atlantic coast

Seacoast Intergroup covers Portsmouth, Dover, Rochester, Exeter, Hampton, and the surrounding Rockingham and Strafford county communities. The Portsmouth meeting calendar reflects the city's mix of working-port history, naval-shipyard workforce, and recent professional growth, with several long-running groups in the downtown area. The Seacoast also includes hybrid meeting options that draw members from across the New Hampshire/Maine border.

Lakes Region, White Mountains, and the North Country

The Lakes Region (Laconia, Wolfeboro, Meredith, Plymouth) has a meeting calendar shaped by both year-round residents and the seasonal vacation-home community, with visible summer attendance increases. The White Mountains and North Country (Lincoln, North Conway, Berlin, Lancaster) maintain smaller but consistent meeting networks, often with hybrid format to keep weekly attendance possible across the sparsely populated geography. Hanover, Lebanon, and the Upper Valley anchor meetings near Dartmouth.

Getting to a meeting in New Hampshire

Manchester Transit and the Cooperative Alliance for Seacoast Transportation (COAST) cover the southern tier and Seacoast respectively. The Downeaster Amtrak service runs from Boston North Station to Portland (ME) via Exeter, Durham, and Dover. Outside the southern and Seacoast corridors, driving is the standard option.
