How it works

We choose a new book each month and share it at book club, in our members' group chat and on Eventbrite. Read it, then come along and tell us what you thought.

      What to expect

      Finished or not

      Not quite finished the book? Come anyway. The conversation is half the fun.

      Queer stories

      Fiction and non-fiction by and about LGBTQIA+ people, from new releases to ones you might have missed.

      A queer-owned venue

      Brew & Bind is a queer-owned coffee shop and bookshop, and it's dog-friendly.

      Questions

      How do I find out the book?

      We share it at book club, in the Network's members' group chat and on Eventbrite, and it's shown on this page.

      Do I have to come every month?

      Not at all. Come when the book takes your fancy.

      Who's it for?

      LGBTQIA+ readers of all kinds, whether you read a book a week or haven't picked one up in years.
