Event Details

 

Black lesbian vampire - need I say more? 

In February we'll read and discuss The Gilda Stories by Jewelle Gomez. Escaping from slavery in the 1850s, Gilda longs for kinship and community over the next two hundred years. Her induction into a family of benevolent vampires takes her on an adventurous and dangerous journey full of loud laughter and subtle terror. Content warning for sexual assault.

You can access The Gilda Stories on Hoopla as an ebook, or request a physical copy through the catalog. Need a library card? Get one here!

Join us at Queer Reads Book Club to discuss fiction and nonfiction books about and/or written by the LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer) community. 

All identities are welcome at Queer Reads Book Club for fun, thoughtful, and supportive discussions. This is a safe space free of harassment, and by joining you agree to respect your fellow readers.
