SUMMARY:Queer Book Club - Disco Witches of Fire Island by Blair Fell
DESCRIPTION:Hit the dance floor with a coven of queer witches on 1980s Fire Island in this gay fantasy romance about finding magic\, love\, and family. \n\n\n\n\n“Heartfelt.”—The New York Times \nA heartwarming LGBTQ+ novel for fans of steamy romance\, loathe-at-first-sight\, and Red\, White\, and Royal Blue. \n\n\nCLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR SEAT \n\n\nIn person + on Zoom\nJoin us for a magical\, emotional\, and deeply queer summer read that blends romance\, fantasy\, and found family in one unforgettable story.\nSet in 1989\, this novel follows Joe Agabian as he spends a summer on Fire Island Pines\, hoping to move forward after losing his boyfriend to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. What begins as a season of healing and self-discovery quickly turns mysterious when Joe and his best friend Ronnie meet two eccentric older men who are hiding a powerful secret. As members of a covert disco witch coven\, they are working to protect their community from a growing darkness—one that threatens Joe himself. With romance\, magic\, and danger intertwined\, this story captures both the joy and heartbreak of queer life during a pivotal moment in history.\n“A vibrant\, heartfelt blend of magic and history that celebrates queer resilience\, love\, and community in the face of unimaginable loss.”\n\nWhy you should join us\nThis is more than a book club—it’s a space to connect\, reflect\, and celebrate queer stories together. Whether you’ve finished the book\, just started\, or simply want to be part of the conversation\, you are welcome. We center community over completion and conversation over perfection. Expect thoughtful discussion\, lots of laughs\, and a welcoming group that shows up for each other.\nAll are welcome. No need to be queer to attend—just come ready to listen\, share\, and be part of something meaningful.
