4/9: Rainbows and Unicorns- An LGBTQ+ Book Club at Booksweet

Come join us for a fun evening of discussion and community at Booksweet for our first LGBTQ+ Book Club on April 9tt! For our first read, we've selected Rubyfruit Jungle by Rita Mae Brown. Whether you've read the book more than once or are just coming to chat with like-minded readers, this event is for you!

Your Eventbrite RSVP is so helpful to our planning!

About the book //

A landmark coming-of-age novel that launched the career of one of this country’s most distinctive voices, Rubyfruit Jungle remains a transformative work more than forty years after its original publication. In bawdy, moving prose, Rita Mae Brown tells the story of Molly Bolt, the adoptive daughter of a dirt-poor Southern couple who boldly forges her own path in America. With her startling beauty and crackling wit, Molly finds that women are drawn to her wherever she goes—and she refuses to apologize for loving them back. This literary milestone continues to resonate with its message about being true to yourself and, against the odds, living happily ever after.

So... what's this book club like? //

This is our very first LGBTQ+ book club! We hope to invite a group of people who have read the book (or don't mind a spoiler) to discuss their thoughts. We will bring prompts but invite anyone to pose a question or share their thoughts!

After our discussion, the group votes on the next session's read. Feel free to pitch a book you've enjoyed recently or want to read with the group!

While we will have water and light refreshments (including nut-free and gluten-free options), Booksweet is located in The Courtyard Shops, filled with AMAZING dining options. Food and drinks are totally welcome at the meet-up; don't feel shy about sipping boba while we chat!

Hope to see you there!
