THROWBACK: Three Cheers For Pride!

THROWBACK FROM JUNE 2021: We are back on Zoom for the first time in a while, talking about pride books for the month of June! Before diving into some of the titles that helped us celebrate queer joy this month, we’re chatting about our ~child star~ moments. Can you believe all four of us have been on TV?! And then, of course, some fantastic gay books. And here’s your friendly reminder to read diversely all year round - not just during Pride month (or Black History month, AAPI Heritage month... you get it). Don’t forget to head over to our Instagram story poll to vote on this year’s summer merch 😍 Thank you for listening! You can join our fan club here: https://www.patreon.com/booksandthecitypod.
