Queer Book Club

Hey Everyone!

**Welcome to Queer Book Club!
We read books about, for and written by queer people! Follow us on Instagram @queer_book_club

We had a great time last meeting talking about crocodiles and chaos. For next month we chose to read, The Blue Place by Nicola Griffith

Our next meetup will be held on Tuesday September 9th at Young Ethel’s in Park Slope BK

This month we will be reading The Blue Place by Nicola Griffith **

A police lieutenant with the elite "Red Dogs" until she retired at twenty-nine , Aud Torvigen is a rangy six-footer with eyes the color of cement and a tendency to hurt people who get in her way. Born in Norway into the failed marriage between a Scandinavian diplomat and an American businessman, she now makes Atlanta her home, luxuriating in the lush heat and brashness of the New South. She glides easily between the world of silken elegance and that of sleaze and sudden savagery, equally at home in both; functional, deadly, and temporarily quiescent, like a folded razor.

On a humid April evening between storms, out walking just to stay sharp, she turns a corner and collides with a running woman, Catching the scent of clean, rain-soaked hair, Aud nods and silently tells the stranger Today, you are lucky, and moves on—when behind her house explodes, incinerating its sole occupant, a renowned art historian. When Aud turns back, the woman is gone.

**At the end of the discussion we can vote on which book we read for next month so bring a queer suggestion.
