Queer book club
We join, once a month, the queer English book club. It’s a group that meets regularly since years. Books are often (but not always), with a queer theme.
Details on the reading list, the location and dates/times are available on out meetup group (see Contact details)
This works like a normal book club: you read the book in the language you prefer, we discuss it in English. You can join a meeting even if you didn’t read/finish the book, but there will be significant spoilers during the discussion.
