Disability Representation

[close] The goal of the book club is to widen our horizons regarding representation in fiction. Diverse fiction represents underrepresented such as but not exluded to: race, class, sexual orientation, nationalities, citizen status, gender, sex. disabilities, LGBTQIA+, etc. All books will be voted on, so long as the book is fiction and has good representation of one or more underrepresented groups it can be suggested. This group will pick a book to discuss every other month.
