These Terms cannot be varied and in proceeding to purchase the Membership you will be deemed to have accepted these Terms. The Terms set out below apply to the services offered by Modern Mrs Darcy. Please read them carefully as they affect your rights and liabilities under law and set out the Terms under which Modern Mrs Darcy (“we”, “our” or “us”) provide services to you, as purchaser of the Membership.

  1. Membership Outline

The Modern Mrs Darcy Book Club is a membership platform for entertainment and education related to the reading life. The Membership is an ongoing commitment where you can get regular support and guidance. 

  1. Membership Specifics

There are three main elements to the Membership:

  1. Monthly book discussions
  2. Forums to discuss all things books and reading
  3. Classes

Monthly Book Discussions

These live, online book discussions will be held on Zoom. We are frequently joined by the author but cannot guarantee their attendance. 

Book discussions will be held at various days and times based on the availability of the hosts/guests and in an attempt to vary the schedule so as many members can come to some events as possible. These events will be recorded and available to watch at any time during your Membership. 

Forums

Our forums are places to chat about our monthly book selection, specific classes or events, and any manner of topics related to the reading life. Members may start conversation topics, add their two cents, ask questions, and reply to fellow members. Forums are asynchronous and available 24 hours a day. 

Classes

Our classes are not mandatory and do not affect your ability to participate or use your Membership fully. They are intended to enrich your personal reading life and do not attempt to fill and academic or professional purpose. 

Classes are held live on Zoom at various days and times based on the availability of the hosts/guests and in an attempt to vary the schedule so as many members can come to some events as possible. These events will be recorded and available to watch at any time during your Membership. 

  1. Behavior

It is requested that at all times your behavior towards others is polite and respectful. Should your behavior be deemed offensive or inappropriate we reserve the right to remove you from the Membership with immediate effect.
