The CAMP Rehoboth Book Club is a queer-facilitated discussion group dedicated to reading novels about queer topics and/or books by queer authors that tackle a variety of interest and subject matters. We alternate between fiction, non-fiction, YA. This group typically meets on the last Monday of every month starting at 5:30 PM on Zoom. Use the link at the bottom of this page to register for the zoom.
Our book club aims to bring all members of our community together in a safe, supportive and inclusive space to enjoy literature, conversation and most of all engage with each other. This group is open to all regardless of sexuality and gender.
The Book Club Selection for June is Red Clay Suzie by Jeffrey Dale Lofton. The author will join the book club for this meeting.
About the Book
The coming-of-age story of Philbet, a gay, physically-misshapen boy in rural Georgia, who battles bullying, ignorance, and disdain as he makes his way in life as an outsider—before finding acceptance in unlikely places.
Red Clay Suzie is the coming-of-age story of a boy living in the Deep South, who struggles against suffocating expectations, heartless indifference, and wounding rejection. Ultimately, he finds inner strength from life lessons learned in Grandaddy’s garden and through his passion for Knox—the boy to whom he has given his heart—if only he can summon the courage to tell him.
Special Event
Please join the author of Red Clay Suzie at the Lewes Library on Wednesday, June 21, at 5:00 p.m., either in person or online for a book talk, facilitated by CAMP Rehoboth Book Club leader Jeff Wilkinson.
