Y’all it’s hot and what better way to spend this blistering Texas summer than spending time with your favorite book club, Book Cult!

We’ll be meeting in July AND August and reading not one, but TWO books each month by some of our favorite small presses! It’s our first summer reading challenge and we hope you join us! The snacks are always good and the books are even better!

July's book club picks are: PERMISSION by Saskia Vogel and MAIDENHEAD by Tamara Faith Berger, both published by Coach House Books

*Book club members get 20% off the book club titles

About the Books

PERMISSION is a kind of love story about three people sick with dreams and expectations who turn to the erotic for comfort and cure. As they stumble through the landscape of desire, they ask themselves: how do I want to be loved?

MAIDENHEAD traverses the desperate, wild spaces of a teenage girl’s self-consciousness. How does a girl feel scared? What is she scared of? And how does telling yourself not to be scared really work?
