Queer Manga Book Club

This book club meets the third Thursday of each month at Under the Umbrella Bookstore! The Queer Manga Book Club reads queer manga, or Japanese graphic novels, across genres. We may also read graphic novels of other Asian origins or Western manga that is heavily influenced by Japanese manga. Join us every second Thursday of the month from 6 - 7:30 pm for a moderated discussion about the book of the month. Due to the graphic or sexual nature of some of the books read by the group, it is an 18+ book club but is otherwise open to all. This event is free to attend, but RSVP and sliding scale ticket is encouraged to guage attendance and cover the cost of the space. 2026 Book List February| Boys Run the Riot, vols. 3-4 by Keito Gaku March| Until I Love Myself vols. 1-2 by Poppy Pesuyama April| The Girl That Can't Get a Girlfriend by Mieri Hiranishi May| How to Deal When Your Intimidating Neighbor is Actually an Omega vol. 1 by Nikuya Inui June| Dick Fight Island vols. 1-2 by Reibun Ike July| Until I Meet My Husband by Ryousuke Nanasaki August| To Strip the Flesh by Oto Toda September| I Wanna Be Your Girl vols. 1-2 by Umi Takase October| I Wanna Be Your Girl vols. 3-4 by Umi Takase November| My Twisted Eating Disorder by Nagata Kabi December| My Journey to Her by Yuna Hirasawa Questions?
