This is a SAFER-SPACE group for LGBTQ(18+) people only.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

We read fiction(including short stories); and take turns to choose a book. If you attend twice, you get to choose a book!

THIS MONTH: it is "SEVEN HUSBANDS OF EVELYN HUGO"; A Romance.......Taylor Jenkins Read's torrid tale tells of an ambitious Hollywood star, who not only has seven husbands, but a secret lesbian love.......
ALSO, we usually have a THEME related to the book (after our break):

this month: FILMS, with successful representation of LGBTQ CHARACTERS; perhaps with an lgbtq character you have found inspiring/interesting in some way

AND a short section on attendees' RECOMMENDED RECENT READING

PLUS,
an LGBTQ NOTICEBOARD (not necessarily book-related) of forthcoming LGBTQ events:)

NB IF YOU ARE A FIRST-TIMER TO THE GROUP:

You will be made very welcome by our facilitator/hosts and the group:)
