Mississauga

Welcome to the Mississauga chapter of the Gloss Book Club! Whether you’re a lifelong and passionate bookworm or just finally getting around to that New Year’s resolution to read more, you will find a warm and welcoming space here. We meet monthly (typically on the last Wednesday of each month) in local restaurants around Mississauga to chat about books and life. The book may be an unanimous hit, a complete miss, or a controversial read, but we always have lively conversations that are casual and nonjudgmental. It’s not just about reading though; books often serve as a catalyst that allows us to explore other topics and discuss all things life, as well as build meaningful connections with likeminded people.

About Your Host

I’m an engineer-turned-Registered Dietitian who loved reading growing up, but somehow fell out of the habit in early adulthood (I blame all the textbooks and research papers I had to read for school). I joined Gloss in 2024, and it completely brought my love of reading back.
One of my favourite things about this book club is connecting with other women and hearing everyone’s different perspectives. I always leave feeling like my cup is a little fuller and often with a completely different take on the book than I started with.

I’d love for you to join us as we check out different cuisines and restaurants around Mississauga. My goal as a host is to keep things fun, easygoing, and low-pressure. Didn’t finish the book? Come anyway. Just want to chat? Love it!

Looking forward to seeing you there.
