John of John (Oprah's Book Club)

This month, we're reading John of John by Douglas Stuart, the Booker Prize-winning author of Shuggie Bain (and his second time featured in this club!), and I am so thrilled to read this one with you all. Cal Macleod returns to his remote Hebridean island home broke and changed, quietly longing for another man to love while his father, the stern lay preacher John, watches his son's long hair and strange ways with growing unease. Stuart writes with such devastating tenderness about the hunger to be known and desired exactly as you are, and this portrait of a gay son and his secrets-keeping father is already being called one of 2026's literary triumphs. Come find out with us what happens when the threads holding a tight, windswept community together finally begin to fray.

James (Pulitzer Prize Winner)

What if the story you thought you knew was never really yours to begin with? For July, we are reading James by Percival Everett, the Pulitzer Prize-winning reimagining of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn told through the eyes of the enslaved Jim, and honey, it will change the way you see one of America's most iconic stories forever. Electrifying, darkly funny, and deeply moving, this is the kind of novel that demands to be read, discussed, and felt in your bones. Join us.

Mutual Aid: Building Solidarity During This Crisis (and the Next)

For July, we are so excited to read Mutual Aid: Building Solidarity During This Crisis (and the Next) by Dean Spade with you. In a moment when so many of us are searching for ways to show up for one another amid overlapping crises, this book offers both a radical vision and a practical roadmap for how ordinary people can care for each other while working toward transformative change. Spade draws on years of grassroots organizing to remind us that survival and solidarity are not separate from the movement, they are the movement. We hope this book sparks something alive in all of us and deepens our sense of what it truly means to belong to each other. As a friendly reminder: this club, previously The Next Chapter with Chani Nicholas, is now called Revolutionary Hearts Book Club and curated by the Allstora staff.

Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit

For July, we are reading the book that started it all. Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit is Jeanette Winterson's groundbreaking debut novel, following a bright, rebellious young woman raised in a strict evangelical household in northern England who must reckon with her faith, her family, and her own awakening sexuality. Funny, tender, and fiercely honest, it is widely considered a cornerstone of queer literature and a book every sapphic reader deserves to have on her shelf. Come read it with us.
