Come prepared with questions!This Cursed House according to Goodreads, is a 1960s Southern gothic horror novel about Jemma Barker, a young Black woman who leaves Chicago for a job with the mysterious Duchon family in New Orleans.

About Us

Where Stories Bring Us Together

At PRIDE Book Club (People Reading for Inspiration, Discussion, and Enjoyment), we believe books are more than just words on a page — they’re bridges to understanding, empathy, and community. Founded to bring passionate readers together, we meet regularly to explore powerful stories, share our perspectives, and build lasting friendships.

Whether it’s diving into the depths of fiction, exploring memoirs, or engaging with powerful voices through contemporary literature, we celebrate diverse authors and thought-provoking themes. Our events feature book discussions, author talks (like our upcoming session with Denise Nichols), and vibrant conversations that linger long after the last page is turned.
