Join us for a book club celebrating LGBTQIA2S+📚 Let’s Gab About Books Together Book Club 📚
Join us on Friday, April 18th at 7 PM at Whose Books for a discussion of A Place of Our Own by June Thomas.
In this compelling book, Thomas takes readers through six iconic lesbian spaces over the past 60 years—from lesbian bars to feminist bookstores—exploring their vital role in queer women’s lives. Through interviews with pioneering figures like Elaine Romagnoli and Susie Bright, Thomas reflects on the evolution of these spaces, from the close-knit communities of the ’70s to today’s broader LGBTQ+ spaces.
A love letter and a time capsule, A Place of Our Own celebrates queer history and the ongoing struggle for belonging.
