What books do we read? I try to make sure that the books have a good mix of authors of color, and trans, non-binary, and gender queer authors. I try to alternate fiction and non-fiction. The non-fiction we read is usually a memoir or occasionally an autobiography or biography. I usually select books under pages.

I also check to make sure that a book is available for sale for a reasonable price and hopefully available at the NOPL before selecting it. How are the books selected? I pick the books. I look at the Lambda Literary Award winners, and book reviews.
