Pride Month Books

by Gabriella Cisneros

We sell books for/about the LGBTQIA+ community to organizations around the country. Browse these lists to find one that could fit your needs.

LGBTQIA+ Pride Month is as much about celebrating and making a very large community visible as it is about protecting human rights.

Create a more inclusive and trusting workplace by sharing books like these with your employees, coworkers, and clients. No single book is a perfect fit for every workplace, so feel free to email us at help@porchlightbooks.com for a personal recommendation!

Order books in bulk from Porchlight for discounts on any number of copies. And if you want the books shipped with stickers, bookmarks, or anything else, we do that too.

A photo from a recent project: We shipped out copies of Marsha by Tourmaline with a printed letter designed to match the book. Contact us if you'd like to partner with us on a project like this!
