Monthly Queer Book Club hosted by LogansLovelyLibrary at Bel Canto Books

Join us for the Monthly Queer Book Club hosted by LogansLovelyLibrary at Bel Canto Books Retro Row! Dive into diverse and thought-provoking queer literature with a group of like-minded book lovers. Each month we will be reading a queer fiction book with different genres and queer representation. Whether you're a seasoned reader or just starting to explore LGBTQ+ literature, this club is the perfect place to share your thoughts and connect with others.

For January we will be reading the novella A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers. This scifi book features nonbinary and agender representation.

Book Description

It's been centuries since the robots of Panga gained self-awareness and laid down their tools; centuries since they wandered, en masse, into the wilderness, never to be seen again; centuries since they faded into myth and urban legend.

One day, the life of a tea monk is upended by the arrival of a robot, there to honor the old promise of checking in. The robot cannot go back until the question of "what do people need?" is answered.
But the answer to that question depends on who you ask, and how.
They're going to need to ask it a lot.
Becky Chambers's new series asks: in a world where people have what they want, does having more matter?
