Hyphenated Book Club - June Meet Up

Hyphenated Book Club

The Hyphenated Book Club is back for 2026! Join fellow book lovers in the community to dive into works by Asian American authors. From new releases by emerging voices to beloved community favorites, fiction to non-fiction and everything in-between, explore the diversity of American literature from an Asian American lens.

All meet ups are free and open to the public to attend. Must be 18+. All sessions are hosted in person at the AARC. No need to have finished the book to attend, though recommended. See below for Hyphenated's reading list and meet up dates.

This Month's Book

Severance by Ling Ma 

Severance is a post-apocalyptic send-up and takedown of the rituals, routines, and missed opportunities of contemporary life as well as a quirky coming-of-adulthood tale and satire.
