The Gloss is 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. You can catch us right here in Kansas City the last Wednesday of every month at 7pm for good books, local eats, and great company!

What we are reading...

Annie Bot by Sierra Greer

Annie Bot was created to be the perfect girlfriend for her human owner, Doug. Designed to satisfy his emotional and physical needs, she has dinner ready for him every night, wears the cute outfits he orders for her, and adjusts her libido to suit his moods. True, she’s not the greatest at keeping Doug’s place spotless, but she’s trying to please him. She’s trying hard.

She’s learning, too.

Doug says he loves that Annie’s artificial intelligence makes her seem more like a real woman, but the more human Annie becomes, the less perfectly she behaves. As Annie’s relationship with Doug grows more intricate and difficult, she starts to wonder whether Doug truly desires what he says he does. In such an impossible paradox, what does Annie owe herself?

    Hi I’m looking forward to joining as my daughter has joined the chapter in New Zealand.

    I am a new author and am interested in sharing my story as a federal government Whistleblower, which I documented in my book, Digital Assassins. Please let me know what I would need to do to interest your organization in promoting my book by considering it for one of your sessions or displaying my press release flyer.

    Thank you!
