FAQs

No, this session is designed to be experienced live. Recordings don’t do justice to the quality of interaction and context you’ll gain by being present.

It's a community gathering where each attendee brings (or speaks about) one book that genuinely changed their life. Think of it as part book club, part storytelling night, part nostalgia trip — a slow, warm evening of stories and recommendations.

Both GrowthX (Gx) members and non-members. You don't need to be part of the Gx community to join.

No. Speaking is encouraged but never required. If you'd rather just listen, sip coffee, and walk away with a new reading list, that's a perfectly fine way to spend the evening.

Each person who wants to share gets a few minutes (final time slot will be confirmed on the day, depending on how many of you raise your hands). No slides, no prep needed — just talk about the book and what it did to you

Anything. Fiction, non-fiction, poetry, scripture, a business book, a children's book, a comic, a cookbook. If it changed something in you, it qualifies.

Yes, if you can. Holding the book up while you talk about it is part of the magic. A Kindle, photo, or just the title written down works too.

We've made the event free for GX Members, those who have paid will get a refund - we want to make this super accessible to anyone who wants to come in!

Yes — coffee and light snacks are included in the ticket price.

Drop us a note as soon as you know. The fee is non-refundable, but it helps us plan the room and the snack count
