Queer & Loathing Book Club

Welcome to Old Firehouse Books' newest book club! We'll be reading books that highlight LBGTQ+ authors and characters. Ideally the books will be weird, fun or at least interesting. Everyone is welcome, especially those wanting to connect with others in the queer community.

Check here for the meeting location for the month. All you have to do to join is read the book (or try to) and show up. If you wanted to be added to a group email list for get the occasional reminder or last minute changes, email Revati at info@oldfirehousebooks.com

 

Meetings take place on the second Tuesday of each month at Old Firehouse Books or Snowbank Brewery at 6:00pm.
