Event Details
Read the rainbow! In this book club, we explore and discuss books by authors and about characters from the LGBTQ+ community.
This month for Reading Rainbow: LGBTQ+ Book Club we'll be reading and discussing The Z Word by Lindsay King-Miller, a 2025 Fort Collins Book Fest Author.
Join us in-person at Old Town Library. These discussions are free and open to the public, but you must register to receive an invitation and information on getting a copy of the book. Books are limited and are available on a first come first served basis.
Book Description: Chaotic bisexual Wendy is trying to find her place in the queer community of San Lazaro, Arizona, after a bad breakup—which is particularly difficult because her ex is hooking up with some of her friends. And when the people around them start turning into violent, terrifying mindless husks, well, that makes things harder. Especially since the infection seems to be spreading.
Now, Wendy and her friends and frenemies—drag queen Logan, silver fox Beau, sword lesbian Aurelia and her wife Sam, mysterious pizza delivery stoner Sunshine, and, oh yeah, Wendy’s ex-girlfriend Leah—have to team up to stay alive, save Pride, and track the zombie outbreak to its shocking source. Hopefully without killing each other first.
