The Las
Comadres and Friends National Latino Book Club is celebrating its 19th
year.
There are book clubs in 12 cities. The Book Club is part of Las Comadres Para Las Americas, a not-for-profit organization for Latinas with 10,000 members worldwide. The Book Club’s mission is to promote the work of Latine authors to every book lover, to bring our community to bookstores, and to support our writers.
The Comadres & Friends Book Club Membership is free and open to everyone -- Latinos and non-Latinos. We read two books by Latino authors every month in English, and hold a Live Author Podcast the last Monday of the month. Visit us at www.latinolit.com.
