Logo for The Nonbinarian Book Club

Thank you for signing up for the Nonbinarian Book Club! This month, we are reading The Hollow Half by Sarah Aziza.*

Join us on Friday, May 30 at 8 p.m. ET on Zoom to meet other club members and chat about the book! The Zoom link will be sent out on the day of the meeting.

The Nonbinarian Book Club: Monthly | Virtual | LGBTQIA+ is written in blue text above the book cover of The Hollow Half by Sarah Aziza, which is in a stylized frame. To the right of the book cover is a pink text bubble that reads, in white font, “$5 off your next purchase w/attendance.” Below the book cover is the meeting information: Friday, April 25 at 8 p.m. ET. At the very bottom is a tag for @NonbinarianBike on Instagram. All of this is set against a pink, blue, and yellow gradient background with a pink, blue, and yellow wave from the left side to the bottom right corner.

The Nonbinarian Book Club is a monthly, virtual, queer and trans-focused book club. Attendees will receive $5 off their next purchase at The Nonbinarian Bookstore, in-store or online. Meetings take place on the last Friday of each month and book club picks will be announced via the Nonbinarian Newsletter and social media on the 1st of each month.

If you prefer to listen to the audiobook, support indie bookstores and the Book Bike by purchasing through Libro.fm and selecting us as your store of choice!*


"Reading Trancestors: A Trans History Book Club" is written in dark blue text over a transgender flag

Thank you for celebrating the launch of our new book club, Reading Trancestors: A Trans History Book Club! Hosted monthly by Nonbinarian Philomena Polefrone, Reading Trancestors will meet on the last Monday of the month both in-store at The Nonbinarian Bookstore and virtually on Zoom. Each month we will collectively suggest and vote on our next book together.

In May, we’ll be reading A Short History of Trans Misogyny by Jules Gill-Peterson. (available in print, digital, and audiobook).*

The cover of A Short History of Trans Misogyny by Jules Gill-Peterson is framed by information about Reading Trancestors on May 26, 2025.

Reading Trancestors is a free, monthly, hybrid reading and discussion group centering trans authors and readers, focused on learning from a past that insists on continually repeating itself. How did our trancestors survive the things we’re scared will happen again? Where did they find purpose in a world with no concept of their existence? What beautiful siblings are in the archive, siblings we may not even know existed? 

Attendees (both virtual & in-person) will receive $5 off their next book club pick purchase at The Nonbinarian Bookstore.

Note: Cis queer and/or het allies are welcome to attend, understanding we are centering trans facilitators and attendees in this book group. We encourage cis queers and het allies to make a small donation (via Venmo @nonbinarianbike or Partiful RSVP PWYC registration chip-in) to help cover the cost of each month's book club pick and lower costs for TGNC attendees.

*If ever you cannot afford to obtain a copy of the book club pick for any of our meetings, please reach out to us via email. No judgment, no questions. We take care of us.

Thank you for supporting the Nonbinarian Book Bike! Look for our next newsletter on the 1st of the month. In the meantime, follow us on social media for daily updates.
