Another evening of insightful conversations on empowering books that shape our understanding of women's journeys. Hosted by FP Ambassador , this book club meet-up is a tribute to narratives penned by authors illuminating the path towards women empowerment. Unlike many book clubs, we don't read entire books – we focus on short stories, making preparation less demanding and more accessible for everyone.

As always, we’re excited to welcome new faces to our book club! Whether you're a long-time member or joining us for the first time, you're warmly invited to be part of these enriching discussions. Feel free to spread the word—tell your friends, colleagues, or anyone who would enjoy connecting over empowering stories.

BOOK CLUB FEATURE: "Men and Women" from Antarctica, by Claire Keegan

"Men and Women" is a coming-of-age story about a girl witnessing her mother’s quiet rebellion against a patriarchal marriage. The deeper theme is how women’s unpaid labour and emotional suffering hold a family together, until one woman finally refuses to keep playing that role.

.

Attendees are expected to read the proposed short story and are expected to share their insights and takeaways and engage in a discussion that celebrates women’s strength, courage, and resilience.

After that, there will be a space for attendees to share tips on books they read recently, whether they're memoirs, fiction, essays, or poetry. Each piece of literature has the potential to inspire, educate, and uplift. It aims to share recommended readings with the community and attendees.

This event is not just about books. It is also an opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals with a passion for literature that empowers them.

Only 20 spots are available. Please, register only if you know you can definitely make it.
