The Chicago Queer Books Meetup 4.50 4.5015
Founded
March 28, 2008

We all have those books we love and want to share with others. We all have those books we have heard about but just haven't gotten around to reading. Meet other locals to discuss the books and authors related to the Queer Experience. Actually we will read anything that strikes our collective fancy.

This meetup is for ANYONE who is interested in learning more about GLBTQ authors and books, and about queer themes in mainstream literature. We will also share tips about where to find/buy queer books and how to find queer book publishers.

This meetup is for discussion of book titles and authors and also for book club discussions. You do not have to read all of the chosen titles in order to participate.
