Happy Pride Month!
I’m incredibly excited to announce the launch of Reading With Pride, the first-ever event hosted by The Kindred Book Club—a joyful, inclusive space dedicated to uplifting indie authors and championing meaningful causes.
Throughout June, we’re spotlighting LGBTQIA+ authors and stories that inspire, challenge, and celebrate. Whether you’re looking to diversify your TBR, support queer creatives, or just discover your next great read, there’s something here for you.
Here’s what you can expect this month:
Six Featured LGBTQIA+ Indie Authors – Each with a unique voice and powerful storytelling
A Charity Raffle – Win bookish goodies while supporting Stonewall, an incredible charity fighting for LGBTQIA+ rights
Live Video Chat Event – Join us for a discussion with the featured authors (date TBA!)
Daily Social Media Highlights Guest Blog Posts – Recommendations, author spotlights, and behind-the-scenes insights from the authors themselves
Whether you're part of the LGBTQIA+ community or an ally, Reading With Pride is all about connection, celebration, and storytelling with heart. I believe stories help us understand one another, and these stories deserve to shine.

Let’s read, uplift, and take pride—together.
