Held at the Affirmations LGBTQ community center, The Reading Rainbow: LGBTQ+ Youth Book Club is put in on partnership with the Ferndale Area District Library. This is a social-justice focused club that targets young adults aged 13 to 22 whose first meeting will be on Friday, Sept. 27, from 3:30 to 5 p.m. Though the voting period has ended for the first book to be read at the club, it is still possible to join.
"Youth who participate in the voting form will be contacted with instructions on how to grab a copy of the chosen book prior to the start of the club," write event organizers.
Some of the available books to vote on are "Blue is the Warmest Color," "The Secret Ingredient," "Just Between Us," "What if It's Us" and "The Great American Whatever."
To find out more about this event visit the Affirmations Facebook page or contact Ian Unger at [email protected] or call 248-398-7105.
