PRIDE: Summer time and the loving's queer!
Mairi
We're thrilled to be supporting LGBT Youth Scotland's Pride Picnic - a perfect opportunity to show pride & solidarity with the queer community after a bruising year, AND raise some much needed cash for LGBT Youth's amazing work with young people!
Sign up to host your very own picnic & you'll get discounts & perks from loads of queer businesses, like Lighthouse, Logan Malloch, Greenwood Kafe & more!
To mark the occasion our booksellers have also rounded up queer summer reading faves - fun, funny or wholeshome, perfect books to lay in the grass with/escape to new worlds in. Through June we'll be donating 10% from sales off this page to LGBT Youth & you can support them directly here too!
We've picked out mostly fiction but you'll find loads more queer reads in our LGBTQ+ section HERE, in the kids corner HERE, Lindsay's curated some Trans History HERE, and a queer parenting reading list HERE and we have a stonewall inspired list of rebel reads HERE.
Enjoy exploring, and remember to sign up for a picnic and get involved!
