PrideReads
We’re bringing queer stories home to Indy. PrideReads is Indy Pride's new queer book club, brought to life in partnership with Tomorrow Bookstore of Indianapolis. Each session, we gather around stories that reflect, challenge, and celebrate queer experience. Come for the book. Stay for the conversation. Leave feeling a little more seen.
Giovanni’s Room
By James Baldwin
April 6, 2026 | 7:30PM | Tomorrow Bookstore
Published in 1956, Giovanni's Room is James Baldwin's devastating and beautiful meditation on love, identity, and the cost of hiding who you are. Set in Paris and told with Baldwin's unmistakable precision, the novel follows an American man torn between the life he thinks he is supposed to want and the love he cannot bring himself to claim. Nearly seventy years later, it remains one of the most powerful and honest portraits of queer longing ever written.
