Gus Kenworthy is the latest star to follow the growing trend of launching virtual book clubs, but his club come with an important difference as he will support a charity fighting anti-queer censorship.
Hosted by Allstora, the queer book marketplace co-founded by RuPaul, Kenworthy’s subscription based club will support the distribution of 2,500 banned books to LGBTQ organisations across the U.S. through the company’s affiliated charity, The Rainbow Book Bus.
Kenworthy’s club is set to centre “visually stunning coffee table books”, with a focus on art, fashion, and design. “I love what The Rainbow Book Bus is doing, and would have loved to have these books when I was going up,” the Olympian said. “Everyone should have access to books that make them feel seen, loved, and supported.”
