Who says book clubs have to be held at boring old Starbucks? If you'd like to make a commitment to reading more AND you've been dying to try out some of the fabulous bars, restaurants and cute little coffee shops and tea rooms LA has to offer, this is the book club for you! I'm planning on alternating between American classics one month, to modern literature the next to keep a good balance. This book club IS a democracy though, so all suggestions are welcome and will be voted upon!

The books we read may or may not be lesbian/queer themed, but the Ladies who attend probably will be ;) (gay/lesbian/bi/queer, trans family welcome) Re …
