Want to discuss great books with like-minded friends in Toronto?
Having our chapter located in a city like Toronto means there's always a mix of current and new members joining each month at the Duke of York pub. Although we have many attendees at each meeting and our book discussions are lively, there is always opportunities to get to know people on a more personal level!

Story of my Life by Lucy Score
When rom-com author Hazel Hart’s marriage implodes and her publisher threatens to drop her if she misses one more deadline, she does what any self-respecting writer would do: she buys a crumbling mansion in a small Pennsylvania town she’s never visited, sight unseen.
Story Lake is not what she pictured. The house is a disaster, the locals are suspicious of city folk, and the contractor sent to fix the place, Campbell Bishop, is allergic to small talk. But something unexpected happens when Hazel trades her Upper East Side life for a town that’s seen better days: she starts writing again, the community starts to feel like home, and the grumpy contractor turns out to be more interesting than he first appears.
Lucy Score’s Story of My Life is a deeply fun, warm-hearted read about starting over, finding your people, and discovering that the best chapters of your life might begin exactly where you least expected. Perfect for anyone who has ever needed a complete reset and found one in the most unlikely place.

Hi is the meeting this month virtual or in person? I’m really enjoying this month selection. Also last month tried to sign up for the virtual meeting but I didnt get the link even though I paid.
Hi Alina, I’ll email you!
Hi, I had the same question. Was looking to try the chapter this month before registering for full subscription…is there a meeting planned?
Sorry Tanya! The event is now up. Hope you can join us.
I just bought the Gloss Membership pass but every time I try to select that I want to attend an event and try to verify my membership it takes me to the page to buy a membership? I am already logged in 🤔
hello I bought a ticket for the may book club but I most likely won’t be able to make it. Can I get reimbursed or use it as a prepaid event to attend the July book club event instead
Hello! If you could please send me an email at amanda@theglossbookclub.com, I can book you in for July’s event!
