About this Event

Calling all sapphic romance lovers! Whether you’re a longtime fan of sapphic stories or just discovering the magic of women-loving-women romance, Pride & Petals is thrilled to host a free, in-person book club celebrating sapphic love in all its forms.

Our mission is simple: to bring together readers who share a passion for heartfelt stories, swoon-worthy characters, and authentic representation. Join us for an evening of lively discussion, tasty snacks, and genuine community connection. Whether you’ve read every sapphic romance under the sun or are just starting your journey, this is a safe, welcoming space to make new friends, share your thoughts, and celebrate love in all its beautiful diversity.

Come for the books, stay for the laughter, and leave with a heart full of joy (and maybe a few new friends!). We can’t wait to meet you and chat about our latest sapphic read!

We have limited space for this book club, so make sure you save yourself a spot.


For the October 17th book club, we have chosen Payback's A Witch by Lana Harper:

It’s witching season at Pride & Petals! This month we’re diving into Payback’s a Witch - a spellbinding sapphic rom-com filled with autumn festivals, magical duels, and a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance that will make your heart flutter like falling leaves.

Meet Emmy, a witch who swore she’d never come back to her hometown… until a magical tournament pulls her in and straight into the orbit of Talia, a gorgeous, powerful witch with vengeance (and maybe romance) on her mind. Think Practical Magic but sapphic, funny, and cozy enough to read with a pumpkin spice latte in hand.

Join us for witchy banter, queer sparks, and a story that proves the best kind of magic just might be falling in love.

And don’t forget - you can always stop by the store to grab your copy of Payback's A Witch.
