July Pride Book Club: Queer Joy

This is a Council led event.

30/07/2026 - Clive James Library and Service Centre, Kogarah.

Join us for Pride Book Club at the library!

Join us on the last Thursday of each month at Clive James Library, Kogarah for the Pride Book Club, where we read and discuss books that explore LGBTQIA+ experiences, voices, and themes. This club is a space for celebrating queer stories in all their variety—from fiction to memoir, graphic novels to poetry—and for connecting with others in an open, respectful, and inclusive environment.

Whether you’re a lifelong reader or just starting out, everyone is welcome. Each month we’ll highlight a different theme or focus, encouraging conversations around identity, representation, and the power of storytelling.

Come along to share your thoughts, discover new favourites, and celebrate the diverse world of queer literature.

July’s Theme: Queer Joy
Celebrate queer joy in all its forms! This month we’ll explore feel-good stories that centre happiness, love, connection, humour, and everyday moments of queer life that feel uplifting and affirming.
