From the ubiquity of BookTok to the popularity of IRL reading retreats and the rise of the going-out book, reading has never felt more social, and the upcoming release of Wuthering Heights—Emerald Fennell’s starry adaptation of the classic 1847 novel by Emily Brontë—presents the perfect opportunity for Vogue to get in on the fun.
To that end, we’re announcing the launch of the Vogue Book Club—your new go-to source for Gothic literary gossip.
To participate, head to the Vogue app today (January 15) and tomorrow (January 16) and on January 22, January 29, and February 5 to weigh in on the latest group-chat prompt inspired by a WH–themed story on Vogue.com. (Our focus will chiefly be the book, not the upcoming movie—but your thoughts on the Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi of it all are certainly welcome.) The conversations will culminate in a special live event in early February; more details to come. And after Wuthering Heights, stay tuned for the Vogue Book Club’s next read; we’ll aim to cover four books over the course of the year.
Basically, think of the Vogue Book Club group chat like an AP Lit discussion session, only with no grades and no final exam and a lot more emphasis on why, exactly, a brooding man of the Yorkshire moors has remained so consistently attractive across nearly two centuries. Happy reading—we can’t wait to hear from you.
