FAQs

How do I join the Insider Book Club?

Joining the Insider Book Club is easy and free! Select one or more of our current books on our website and register for an author event for each book you choose. Congrats! You're officially part of the club.

Is there a cost to participate in the book club events?

All our events are free. You will need a copy of the book to participate, and we provide links for easy access. However, you can always purchase or borrow books from wherever you like.

How do I register for the "Meet the Author" sessions?

On the book's information page, you'll see a box titled "Choose Your Date." Select a date from the list and click "Register Now" to be directed to the registration page. Zoom links and a reminder will be emailed.

Can I suggest a book or author for the Insider Book Club to feature?

While we have a rigorous selection process, we welcome suggestions. Feel free to contact us with your book recommendations. If you're an author who'd like to participate, please visit our For Authors page.

What genres do you feature?

We feature a variety of genres typically found in book clubs, including women's fiction, upmarket fiction, literary fiction, speculative fiction, and historical fiction. We'll consider any genre if the book makes you think and contributes to a lively discussion.

Will I be able to interact with the authors during the sessions?

Yes, our "Meet the Author" sessions are interactive, allowing you to ask questions and engage directly with the authors.

Can I purchase the books through your website?

Each featured book has purchase links on our website, making it easy to get your copy while supporting local bookstores through bookshop.org. As an affiliate, we make a small commission off any books you purchase, which helps pay for the hosting and software necessary to keep Insider Book Club thriving.

How often do you select new books?

We select books for the season (Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall) and spread out "Meet the Author" sessions to allow people time to read at their own pace. We'll announce new books at the beginning of Dec, March, June, and September.

What if I miss a "Meet the Author" session?

While live interaction is best, some sessions may be recorded and available for later viewing. This will depend on each individual author's preferences.

Can I register for more than one author meet-up at a time?

Please do NOT register for more than one session with the same author in a single season. However, we HIGHLY encourage you to attend sessions with as many authors as possible.

If I'm hosting an in-person party, do all the guests need to register for the online event?

We encourage each guest to register for the event. This helps our authors know how many people to expect and prevents over-crowding the online event.
