A summer book club with a difference! Reading a women's fiction series together over weekly meetings, craft in the sun (HOPEFULLY)& chat...
About this Event

This is a book club, a crafting club and a meet the author event!


A great way to meet new friends - with plenty to do, you'll never have to worry about making conversation. Each week over the summer we will meet in a Glasgow park (the first one will be in Queens Park and we'll meet in front of the flagpole -- will move it around to make it fair and if the weather doesn't cooperate we'll decamp to the nearest pub or cafe!) Bring along any crafting projects or sketch or colouring books, anything you fancy, and I'll bring some bits and pieces.

I'll do a wee talk about the background of the book and then we can chat about it. A big part of the idea behind doing a series like this was about creating community around the story. I still remember the fun of rushing in to school to discuss the previous evening's Neighbours and this is a way of recreating that!


THE CHANCES ARE SERIES

What happens when a Hollywood studio sets up camp in Govan?

Executive producer Eden dreams of a Scottish romance to mend her broken heart, and when Fraser buys her a Greggs... let's just say it's the beginning of her problems. Director Maeve has had her heart broken one too many times and sworn off romance altogether, until a handsome doctor from her past makes her question everything. Their working relationship gets off to a rocky star but when leading lady Poppy suffers a brutal attack, Eden and Maeve must learn to trust each other to figure out who is sabotaging the show before anyone else gets hurt...

“Jackie Collins meets Sophie Gravia!" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"I've been loving seeing all of these characters come together, and this whole series has been heartwarming and funny, tied in with some mystery.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“It was well written with a compelling story line and well developed characters. In this series for me it is all about the girls, I have found myself really liking them.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“As well, this the mystery of what happened to Poppy has even more twists and turns, and I'm super happy to see there are at least 2 more books in this series!” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“The more I read of this series the more invested I become in the lives of the characters and the outcome of their production.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Like the other books in this series it’s full of humour and drama with a touch of spice. The Scottish banter really makes these books. We get some closure on questions that arise in the first two books but there’s more I need to know so cannot wait to read book 4. Especially with that ending!! I need to know what’s next for these characters.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


There are six events and six books in the Chances Are series, so we'll read the series together. They are wee novellas that can easily be read in a week, though equally please don't worry about finishing each one - just come for the chat anyway! Also totally fine to dip in and out or join later in the series - the more the merrier!
