That's What She Read: A Book Club for TWSS™ Community
Thank you for your interest in joining our book club!  We are excited to hold space for womxn to come together, push our thinking, build community, and have powerful conversations every month.

Our club will happen on the 3rd Thursday of the month from 6:00pm-7:00pm via Zoom.  Our book list can be found at: https://www.thatswhatshesaidsf.com/thats-what-she-read.  We will pull book suggestions from the community and curate the selection as best as we can according to variety, season, interest, and more.  We will structure it with lots of small group discussion so folks will have a chance to get to know different members while discussing questions and having fun!  Eventually these may be in-person, but for now it'll be online.  

There will be a suggested donation of $5/month for operating costs while the event is remote, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.  We would love to partner with a local (preferably womxn-owned) bookstore as we go forward, please send any leads you may have to thatswhatshesaidsfc@gmail.com.
