What we’re about
Our Feminist Book Club is where great books meet bold ideas, with plenty of laughter and shenanigans! Each month, we gather to swap stories, share hot takes, and laugh while we plot the quiet overthrow of the patriarchy. Whether you read every page, skim the back cover, or just came for the snacks, you’re welcome here. We celebrate joy, hold space for the heavy stuff, and believe listening is its own kind of revolution!

Feminist Book Club Lausanne Meeting (book to be announced)
Books Books Books - Feminist Book Club, Rue du Valentin 1, Lausanne, CHCo-hosted by Janine & Laura + rotating community co-hosts
Join us for our monthly Feminist Book Club at Books Books Books in Lausanne — an evening of reading, reflection, and brave conversation grounded in our shared values of radical confidentiality, cultural humility, bold and messy speech, empathy, pleasure-as-power, and collective care.
This book club is open to anyone who wants to read feminist books in a community. You don’t need to finish the book to attend. You don’t need prior “feminist knowledge.” Just bring yourself.
