Tucson Lesbian Book Club Discusses Even Though I Knew The End by C.L. Polk
🖤 Love, Mystery, and a Little Bit of Magic: Even Though I Knew the End
What would you risk for the chance to change your destiny? In Even Though I Knew the End by C. L. Polk, a queer private investigator navigates a shadowy 1940s Chicago filled with supernatural secrets, dangerous bargains, and a love worth fighting for. Blending the moody atmosphere of noir detective fiction with fantasy and sapphic romance, this gripping novella explores love, fate, sacrifice, and the price of second chances.
Join the Tucson Lesbian Book Club on December 1 for a lively conversation about this atmospheric tale. Come for the mystery, stay for the romance, and bring your own take on the choices that shape our lives!
