May Book Club: All the Water in the World

Can’t believe we’re already so far into 2026! For the next meet up in May, we’ll be reading All the Water in the World by Eiren Caffall. The Marin library system has plenty of copies available. Happy reading!

Come Solo : Leave Dancing with Friends!

**RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/ogTNPOUKBRGFJiP7aDgm **FREE for Early Bird \| $ Later on** Most midweek meetups end with polite small talk and another night on the couch... this one ends on the dance floor! Spend an hour in genuine one-on-one conversations with midweek fun-seekers and dance enthusiasts you have never met. There is no awkward mingling or wondering who to approach next. Instead of staying home this Tuesday, you pick your favorite people from the rounds and head inside Blondie's for free swing dancing together. Same evening. No follow-up texts. No scheduling headaches. Just real conversation that turns into a real plan — with people you already vibe with. By the time you head inside to the dance floor, you've already got a crew to share the music with. Maybe this becomes your weekly swing dancing squad. Maybe it's just a great evening. Either way, you're not doing it alone. Agenda 6:50PM - Check-In Follow the link to complete a quick profile setup on your phone. 7:00PM - 8:00PM - One-on-One Rounds Our app pairs you for focused conversations. Find out who else wants to trade a boring Tuesday night for some rhythm and new connections. 8:00PM+ - Form Groups & head inside Blondie's and start swing dancing together Reconnect with your favorite matches, form groups of 4-6, and head inside Blondie's and start swing dancing together. Your group leaves together - tonight. Don't just collect contacts. Actually go swing dancing with new people and see if this becomes your regular crew for new dance nights and midweek spots to try together. Want to stay in touch with someone? Use the app - it lets you connect without ever sharing your phone number. **RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/ogTNPOUKBRGFJiP7aDgm **FREE for Early Bird \| $ Later on**

D’Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding by Chencia C. Higgins

For the May 2nd book club, we have chosen *D’Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding* by Chencia C. Higgins: This month, we’re leaning into something fun, flirty, and full of delicious chaos. We’re diving into *D’Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding* by Chencia C. Higgins; a sapphic romance that brings together fake dating, reality TV drama, and two women who absolutely did not plan on falling in love. D’Vaughn is charming, easygoing, and commitment-avoidant. Kris is driven, organized, and determined to win. When they both sign up for a reality TV show where couples compete to prove their love (and walk away with a cash prize), they agree to fake a relationship to play the game. But between staged wedding challenges, family expectations, and the pressure of performing love for the cameras, their pretend relationship starts to feel very real. This book is full of humor, tension, and heart, exploring what happens when love grows in the most unexpected places. It’s a story about vulnerability, ambition, and the messy, beautiful line between what we plan and what we actually feel. Join us for an evening of lively discussion, laughter, and all the chaos of a romance that refuses to stay pretend. As always, our book club is a warm and welcoming space; whether you’ve finished the book or simply want to listen and be part of the conversation.  Sign up and read along with us, we’d love to have you there.  And don’t forget, you can always stop by the store to grab your copy of *D’Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding* at Pride & Petals ( 6607 Telegraph Avenue, Oakland, CA 94609)
