"Friends of Dorothy" is a LGBTQIA+ Book Club hosted by Jackie & Bex of Ionia Round Table! Each month has unique themes, and monthly meetings are held at Bettie's Pages in Lowell, MI.
The theme for October is gothic horror (queer ones of course)! Keep an eye on our socials to vote for your pick of the options and see the final pick.
Come join on Saturday 10/24 @ 1:30 to discuss one of these queer gothic horrors.
