Meeting #1: Heavy by Kiese Laymon

Join us for the very first meeting of Saltwater Stories, a book club created for Black readers in the Greater Philly area. Our first read, Heavy by Kiese Laymon, is a raw, lyrical memoir exploring identity, trauma, family, and truth.

Whether you’ve read the whole book or just a few chapters, come through for good conversation, community, and space to reflect together.
