Join us in person for a relaxed evening to discuss This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone!
About this Event

Unlike our signature quiet reading nights, where everyone brings their own book and reads independently, this event is a discussion centered around one shared read.

Our book club reads together on the app at our own pace and meets in person once we’ve finished the book. There is no weekly reading schedule and no pressure to keep up. We simply give ourselves time to enjoy the story before gathering to chat.

You do not need to be part of our Fable book club to attend. If you’ve read the book, you’re invited! Whether you read it with us, on your own, or even before our book club selected it, we’d love to hear your perspective.

Expect a relaxed, low-pressure discussion where everyone is welcome to share their thoughts, favourite moments, questions, and interpretations. There are no pop quizzes and no expectation to have the “right” answer. Just come ready for a great conversation with fellow readers.

Please purchase a drink or snack while you’re there. Supporting local businesses is an important part of The Margins Club, and we’re grateful to the spaces that welcome our community.
