Most Read This Week In Canada

[close] Come and join our group for new readers (or re-readers!) of Louise Penny's 'Chief Inspector Gamache Series', to discuss and read in the order of their original publication. This is a friendly, open group. There are discussion forums per each book in the series, and polls and challenges too.

[close] A place for proud Ontarians to hang out, make new friends and share a laugh. We talk about books, day-to-day life and what's going on in our beautiful province. Profiles set to private won't be considered. Because this group is for individuals who reside in Ontario, your profile must display your location. Thank you. Authors who reside in Ontario are welcome. However, no self-promotion.

[close] We read books by and about diverse Canadians. We've got a policy and current affairs bend, but love a good fiction.

[close] About the Group Welcome! We’re a Vancouver-based reading crew for people who love the classics and want to read them in a friendly, low-pressure way. We rotate between plays (Shakespeare & friends), classic novels (Tolstoy, Austen, Ibsen, etc.), and a monthly Harvard Classics Coffee Club pick (short, actionable reads like Ben Franklin’s Autobiography). Think: big ideas, zero academic gatekeeping. Who this is for Readers who want thoughtful conversation without homework police People curious about “the great books” and how they apply to real life Vancouver locals who may meet in person—non-Vancouver readers still welcome to join threads and chats How we read 1–2 selections per month (mix of short plays, short stories, essays, or manageable chunks of longer books) Discussion threads open a week before meetups with prompts + key quotes In-person meetups (cafés / library rooms) when possible, plus ongoing online chats “Come even if you didn’t finish”—we’ll post summaries and passages Typical Picks Plays: Twelfth Night, A Doll’s House, Death of a Salesman Novels/Novellas: Hadji Murat, The Stranger, Jane Eyre (selections welcome) Harvard Classics: Franklin, Emerson essays, Marcus Aurelius selections, Montaigne, Plato dialogues (short!)
