Want to discuss great books with like-minded friends in Auckland?

The concept is simple. We’re a global book club for likeminded individuals 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.

About the book

What we are reading in May: Lost & Found  by Kathryn Schulz

Eighteen months before Kathryn Schulz’s father died, she met the woman she would marry.

In Lost & Found, she weaves the story of those relationships into a brilliant exploration of the role that loss and discovery play in all of our lives. The resulting book is part memoir, part guidebook to living in a world that is simultaneously full of wonder and joy and wretchedness and suffering–a world that always demands both our gratitude and our grief.

A staff writer at The New Yorker and winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Schulz writes with curiosity, tenderness, erudition, and wit about our finite yet infinitely complicated lives. Lost & Found is an enduring account of love in all its many forms from one of the great writers of our time.

    Hello
    I have just back to Auckland after being in Sydney for 16 years where I was part of a fabulous book group for 9 years. Really keen to join one in Auckland and thought this looked like it might be just what I need. How do I join The Gloss Bookclub?
    Thanks in advance
