Thank you and #HappyPride to the lovely people at the #LondonLGBTQCentre for letting us leave behind some flyers about our gay book club podcast!

If you’re in Central London, we can’t recommend checking out this warm and welcoming space- and the cool events they have on- enough! 🌈✨📚
A POV shot of a hand tucking a lavender flyer decorated with rainbows and sparkles in amongst other similar flyers. The flyer is titled ‘The Hidden Bookcase.’

Then, we’ll kick off #DisabilityPrideMonth with the return of the always incredible
