Want to discuss great books with like-minded friends in Barrie?
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.
What we are reading...
Pearce Oysters by Joselyn Takacs
A family drama set along the Louisiana coastline during the 2010 BP Oil Spill, Pearce Oysters follows a third-generation oyster farmer whose business, family, and livelihood are on the brink of collapse.

Good morning Jen,
I was so looking forward to coming to Moxy’s tonight to discuss The Housemaid, but unfortunately I have developed Bronchitis and would not want to expose anyone.
I have purchased next month’s book and look forward to meeting you then.

Hi Jen:
I live in Ottawa (Orleans) would you have a phone number or email that would connect me to The Gloss in Ottawa?

Hi Shelline! I will give the Ottawa host your email address, and ask them to reach out to you! Here is the Ottawa webpage as well: https://theglossbookclub.com/ottawa/.
Hello, I just moved to Barrie and was looking to join a book club! I was just wondering if I would be able to get some more information!
Hi Alexis! All Gloss chapters read the same book at the same time and meet up once a month in a centrally located venue to discuss that month’s book. Here is a list of our monthly book selections: https://theglossbookclub.com/book-store/. We are always accepting new members so you are very welcome to join us! To join a book club chapter, you can visit the webpage, and click on an event under “Upcoming Bookclubs” to register for the meeting! Barrie’s July meeting should be posted very shortly!
Is there a wait list for the Sept 30th event? It would be my first time joining. I have started reading this book and am finding it most enjoyable! I guess I was feeling a little nervous to sign up before knowing if I would like the book.
You are the first on the waitlist. I will let you know if a spot opens up!
