About us
A book discussion group for members and friends of the LGBT community. Although the focus here is on reading and discussing books of specific interest to the community, we will read books from other genres, as well. We'll meet one Friday each month (usually the third Friday) to discuss our current selection and select a book for the following month.

Pageboy By Elliot Page
The Nunnery, 900 Liberace Ave Suite A218, Las Vegas, NV, USPageboy: A Memoir is an autobiographical memoir by Canadian actor Elliot Page, who has appeared in award-winning films like Juno and Inception, as well as the Netflix original series The Umbrella Academy. Originally published in June 2023, the book immediately became a New York Times bestseller. Page, a transgender man, details his experiences of being assigned female at birth and growing up presenting as a girl. He explores his journey of self-discovery and the long, painful path toward embracing his gender and sexuality. The nonlinear memoir also explores Page’s sometimes fraught relationships with his family members, friends, partners, and colleagues. Page sheds light on the challenges he faced in Hollywood as a young actor and as both a closeted and out member of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning (LGBTQ) community.
