I only read when I'm flying. I'm just to damn busy with work and partying. But I would like to get back into it. A good book to check out is Alienist by Caleb Carr. It's a murder mystery that takes place in NYC when Teddy Roosevelt was the Police Commisioner of NYC.
Are you looking to go clubbing or bar/lounge with dancing? There re a ton of cool places in the East Village with dancing. Cafe Deville, Liquids, and Opaline are fun tonight.
