What we are reading...
Finding Flora by Elinor Florence is our January pick at The Gloss — a fierce, big-hearted novel to start the year with inspiration, courage, and conversation.
Set in 1905 Alberta, the story begins with Flora making a daring escape from an abusive marriage by leaping from a moving train. Determined to reclaim her life, she uses a legal loophole to secure her own homestead on the Canadian frontier. What follows is a deeply satisfying tale of resilience and reinvention as Flora builds an unexpected chosen family: a Welsh widow and her children, two American chicken-raisers, and a Métis horse breaker. Together, they learn to survive the land, protect one another, and “fire the heather” when everything they’ve fought for is at risk.
A perfect read for anyone who loves stories of frontier grit, female strength, and communities forged in unlikely places, Finding Flora offers rich themes and memorable characters that will spark a fantastic discussion.
Join us this January as chapters around the world come together to read and explore this unforgettable novel. Whether you’re brand new to The Gloss or returning for another great year of reading, we’d love to have you with us. Pick up your copy, check your local meeting date, and come meet a welcoming community of women who love great books and even better conversation.Local Chapter Information below (scroll down)

I would like to join and attend April’s meeting. Where do you meet and when? I have the April book and am about to start it. I thought there was a series of questions I needed to answer to join but I can’t find it. Please let me know what I need to do to be a member. Looking forward to it!
Hi Victoria! The April event is listed above (April 25th 6:30pm @ Blackbird Public House). If you click on the event you can RSVP for 5$ a meeting or purchase a yearly membership for 55$.
Hi there, just wanted to confirm that if I sign up for the yearly membership that I can cancel anytime. I saw that it was “recurring yearly membership” so wanted to make sure there was an option to unsubscribe. Please let me know, thanks!
Hi Jane! Yes, you can cancel your membership renewal.
Great, just subscribed & joined the FB group! Looking forward to the next event.
I am interested in learning more and joining in September. I was wondering where you meet?
I just joined but also am having a hard figuring out when you meet. I would like to come to the next meeting, at the Blackbird, but not sure of the date/time nor how to keep informed about this.
Sorry Cheryl we are missing the Denver meeting for November, hope to have it up soon
Hi! I represent a local Denver author and she’d be interested in joining as a guest and discussing her book. If this is something that interests you please send me an email!
Hoping to attend the November meeting (currently reading the blue hour and loving it!) but I am having trouble finding details about the event’s time and location?
Hi Claire, the November book club details have just been posted above under “Upcoming bookclubs”.
Hi could you please tell me how to cancel my subscription? I’m not going to be able to come any more thanks
