What we’re about
Interested in reading books by authors whose voices are often pushed to the margins? Join this book club focusing on books about social justice from authors who know what they're talking about. Topics include culture, disability, politics, race, religion, sexuality, sex and gender, socioeconomic status, and anything else we want to put on the table.
We understand that life gets busy. And we also get that, for many of us, talking about books is a launching pad to talk about the things most important to us. So, even if you haven't had a chance to finish the book (or even get that far into it...), please feel free to join us for a lively discussion. Anyone is welcome!

For November, we will read The Woman in the Library by Sulari Gentill!
The Woman in the Library:
The ornate reading room at the Boston Public Library is quiet, until the tranquility is shattered by a woman's terrified scream. Security guards take charge immediately, instructing everyone inside to stay put until the threat is identified and contained. While they wait for the all-clear, four strangers, who'd happened to sit at the same table, pass the time in conversation and friendships are struck. Each has his or her own reasons for being in the reading room that morning—it just happens that one is a murderer.Award-winning author Sulari Gentill delivers a sharply thrilling read with The Woman in the Library, an unexpectedly twisty literary adventure that examines the complicated nature of friendship and shows us that words can be the most treacherous weapons of all.
