Join our monthly book club on the last Sunday of each month at 2pm! Let's dive into some great books and even better conversations!
About this Event

The Indy Reads Book Club features a variety of authors and book genres and is open to the public. If you are a book lover looking for space to have some great conversations around some great books, or someone who is looking to expand their reading list, we want to chat with you!

Hosted by Gya Torres and Katherine Culp, our monthly book club is intended to be a fun, easy space to chat about what we love about our Book of the Month. Pick up a copy at Indy Reads for 15% off and then join us on the last Sunday of each month at 2pm to discuss! Join us for one discussion or all of them!

This monthly event is recommended for adults age 18+.

Proceeds from sales at Indy Reads support our English literacy programming for nearly 500 adult learners each year.

Katherine Culp

Katherine has been reader all her life! While she loves all genres, but fantasy, sci-fi, and cozy mysteries are her absolute favorite! Katherine has a personal goal to read 50 books each year. She was 4 short last year, so hopes to reach her goal this year--thank you book clubs! Her favorite way to read is by listening to audiobooks (yes that counts!).

Some of Katherine's favorite books are The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins, the Percy Jackson series by Rick Riodian, and the Legendborn series by Tracy Deon.

Gya Torres

Gya is a lover of all things Romance. Her favorite way to read is via audiobooks and will definitely have all kinds of trophy books to celebrate her favorite reads. She also loves to read about feminist movements, social justice, and memoirs. Gya loves to read multiple books at once, since she is a mood reader and needs to find the right book for the right moment.

Currently she is indulging in Katee Robert's latest novel, Tender Cruelty the 9th book in the Dark Olympus series. At the same time she is physically reading Mutual Aid by Dean Spade, and I, Medusa by Ayana Grey.
