Want to discuss great books with like-minded friends in Portsmouth?
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...
Lula Dean’s Little Library of Banned Books by Kirsten Miller
The provocative and hilarious read that will have book lovers cheering and everyone talking! Kirsten Miller, author of The Change, brings us a bracing, wildly entertaining satire about a small Southern town, a pitched battle over banned books, and a little lending library that changes everything.

Hi Stephen! We do not have any events planned for Portsmouth yet, but they will be listed under “Upcoming Bookclubs” on this page once they are uploaded.
Hi, I live in Southsea. Are there any book clubs here at the moment?
Thanks, Samantha
Hi Samantha, unfortunately we are still looking for a host for our Portsmouth chapter. If you are interested in learning more about hosting please email me at amanda@theglossbookclub.com.
Hello, in Portsmouth where are the book clubs located and how often are the meet ups? Just wondering before I join, I case i wouldn’t be able to attend.
Hi Izzy, our chapters typically meet once a month, but the next event in Portsmouth will be in January. The January event will be at Scoops Gelato, 81-83 Elm Grove.
