JANUARY PICK
Simply More: A Book for Anyone Who Has Been Told They're Too Much by Cynthia Erivo
This book had us tearing up in the club. Cynthia Erivo may be a household name thanks to the Wicked films, but her story reaches far beyond the Emerald City. Like so many queer people and other marginalized voices, she’s been told she’s “too much” at every turn. And like the icon she is, she kept going anyway.
Simply More gathers the lessons she picked up along the way—moments of triumph, moments of reflection, and the quiet truths that shape a life. It’s not your standard self-help read; it’s an intimate look behind the curtain at a woman who’s fought for her place and, in doing so, created space for so many of us to see our own journeys reflected back.
If you love memoirs that hit you in the gut and lift you up in the same breath, you won’t want to miss this one.
Queerty is the popular site that’s “free of an agenda, except that gay one.” It is the cheeky cocktail conversation that covers what the queer community and its allies are talking about now: news, politics, arts, celebrities, culture and entertainment through video, interviews, lists, breaking news, and reporting. The Queerties awards program, culminating in a huge party in Los Angeles every March, celebrates the best in media, film, and celebrity.
Q's about the book club?
Joining is easy. Just subscribe above, pick your favorite host or club, and choose a plan that fits your rhythm — monthly or quarterly. Every plan includes exclusive member perks and bits of joy delivered in every box.
Allstora Tokens are your monthly key to choice. They let you decide what lands on your doorstep: Queerty's book, another club's pick, or something fun from The Pride Shop. Tokens give you the freedom to shape your reading life each month.
On the 15th of your renewal month, tokens are added to your account. You'll have 72 hours to make your selection before orders lock. We'll send a reminder when it's time to choose. Nothing ships until you make your selection.
If life gets busy, we'll still do our best to rush your book if we have stock available! Rush orders cost one token.
Totally fine. Your tokens roll forward for up to 12 months. You can stockpile them like a dragon hoarding queer literature, then spend them when the next story (or tote bag) calls your name.
Books ship once you redeem your tokens for that month's selection. Orders go out during the last week of the month and usually arrive the first week of the next month. If you redeem late, we'll do our best to get it to you quickly.
Visit your new dashboard here: 👉 https://my.allstora.com/account Log in with the same email used at checkout. If you haven't created an account yet, select "Create Account" and you'll receive a one-time passcode by email. Once signed in, your subscriptions, tokens, and orders will sync automatically.
All renewals occur on the 15th of each month. On that date, your plan renews and new tokens are added to your account.

Each club's upcoming title is announced on the 15th of the prior month. You can preview the pick and, if it's not your vibe, simply hold your tokens (for up to a year) to use on another title or item instead.
No drama. Skip it! Your tokens will patiently wait in your account (for up to a year) until a book, merch item, or moment speaks to you.
Yep! You can cancel anytime after your first renewal. No hoops, no heartbreak.
Nope! We're "read at your own pace" people. Discussion prompts go live weekly in Kiki, but you can jump in whenever the spirit (or your schedule) allows.
Don't worry, we've got you. Your memberships automatically merge behind the scenes, so you'll never be double-billed. Your perks stick around as long as you have an active subscription or membership.
