LGBTQ+ BRUIN BOOK CLUB
ALL ABOUT LGBTQ+ BRUIN BOOK CLUB
Find community on and off the page! LGBTQ+ Bruin Book Club is a newly formed club dedicated to reading queer books. Open to all identities, we want to provide a safe space for anyone to enjoy reading while giving queer stories the focus they deserve. Whether you are queer, questioning, or a lover of queer fiction — join us and share a passion for reading queer stories amongst fellow peers!
P.S. We are most active on Discord so come join us there!
Give us your feedback!
The Librarians are working extra hard to make the next six months unforgettable! We want to focus our efforts to things y'all will be interested in, so please help us out by filling out our interest survey! Any answers to our survey will guide the club's direction for the rest of the year, so it would mean a lot if you could spend 5 minutes filling it out.
If you are only interested in our club reads, you can suggest books on the form as well. All books welcome — as long as it's queer in some way!
P.S. We might have a club trip to an indie bookstore next month... Keep an eye out for that!

Vote by filling out this Google Form. A blurb is included for each book to help you with your voting. Note that we have allowed response editing this time around, so you should be able to change your answer unlimited times after submission (until the form closes).
We use approval voting for our book votes, so you can vote for everything you're interested in. This lets us know what might be good to keep around. Revotes may occur between top choices.
Feel free to contact us with any issues regarding our book list. You are also always welcome to bring up any book suggestions at a future meeting.
We will be closing this book vote on Monday, January 20 @ 11:59 PM, so be sure to get your vote in!
