Want to discuss great books with like-minded friends in Sheffield?
The concept is simple. We’re a global book club for likeminded women to discuss great books! All members of the book club read the same book over the same period; members then meet up in their respective cities at the end of each month to discuss the book and exchange views.

The Favorites by Layne Fargo
She might not have a famous name, funding, or her family’s support, but Katarina Shaw has always known that she was destined to become an Olympic skater. When she meets Heath Rocha, a lonely kid stuck in the foster care system, their instant connection makes them a formidable duo on the ice. Clinging to skating—and each other—to escape their turbulent lives, Kat and Heath go from childhood sweethearts to champion ice dancers, captivating the world with their scorching chemistry, rebellious style, and roller-coaster relationship.
Until a shocking incident at the Olympic Games brings their partnership to a sudden end.
As the ten-year anniversary of their final skate approaches, an unauthorized documentary reignites the public fascination with Shaw and Rocha, claiming to uncover the “real story” through interviews with their closest friends and fiercest rivals. Kat wants nothing to do with the documentary, but she can’t stand the thought of someone else defining her legacy. So, after a decade of silence, she’s telling her story: from the childhood tragedies that created her all-consuming bond with Heath to the clash of desires that tore them apart. Sensational rumors have haunted their every step for years, but the truth may be even more shocking than the headlines.

Hello!
I’ve just moved to Sheffield and was looking to join a book club.
The Gloss seems perfect, but I don’t think it’s running in Sheffield at the moment?
Any help appreciated!
Thanks
Meera
Hi Meera! The Sheffield chapter is unfortunately inactive right now because we are looking for a new host! If you are interested in being a host, please reach out to info@theglossbookclub.com.
Hi there
I was looking for a book club in Sheffield.
I notice you’re looking for host. What does that entail?
Thanks
Jane
Hey Jane, thanks for reaching out. We’ll send you an email with more info!
I would also love to join! What are the expectations of a ‘host’. I’ve only ever been to a book club by a friend before but would like to get involved in something!
Hi
I’m interested in joining a book group in Sheffield too help me get back into reading. I’ve found it really difficult to finish books in the last few years after being an avid reader and a literature graduate.
I’d be happy to co-host if that would be an option.
Hi Meera! I’d also be keen for a book club like this 🙂 It doesn’t look like there is one in Sheffield at the moment which is a shame
Hey I have also just moved to Sheffield it would be great to join a book club! I don’t have the confidence to host 🙁 but if you have any updated my insta is emiliazoex
Hi all,

Hi all,
I’ll be moving to Sheffield this week, I’m very interested in joining an active book club.
I love to read books a lot, mostly on philosophy, history, finance. Currently reading Antifragile, my second book this year. I have just finished The Almanac of Naval ravikant. My choice of books are not really fictional stories so not sure I’ll be suitable as a host. But I’ll like to make new friends, like minded and book loving ones. Also cos I’m an immigrant with no friends in Sheffield.
Hello! We are still looking for a host for the Sheffield chapter! Please send an email to info@theglossbookclub if you are interested in the host role and we can give you some more info about it! Thank you.
