OutNebraska LGBTQ+ Book Club

Published: August 15, 2024

Sign up for upcoming Zoom meetings here.

OutNebraska’s LGBTQ+ Book Club meets every 3rd Tuesday at 7pm CT / 6pm MT. We discuss queer books, largely by queer authors, and talk about how themes we see in the books show up in our day-to-day lives. This is open to all Nebraskans who want to read more queer books and who want to learn more about life as an LGBTQ+ person.

Here is our reading schedule for 2024. Each book is listed for the month/meeting it should be read by. If a book is available in local libraries, you will see a ? next to it. We try to search a few large libraries in Nebraska.
