Entre Mundos Therapeutic Bookclub
Entre Mundos is a therapeutic group focused on supporting Latine folks through the creative exploration of literature. Participants can expect to read a variety of literature by Latine authors and will explore literary themes to deepen their understanding of how history, migration, intersectionality, gender, culture, and systemic inequality have impacted our lives.
This is an ongoing, open group, meaning that participants are able to join at any time (limited to 6 members). This group is open to Latine adults (18+) and meets monthly in Seattle.
Schedule and location: Beginning in November 2026, meetings will be held once a month on Saturday mornings. Meetings are held in-person in Georgetown/South Seattle, with the possibility of meeting virtually when needed.
Cost: $30-50 per meeting (please reach out if cost is prohibitive; no one will be turned away due to inability to pay).

June/July Reading: For Brown Girls with Sharp Edges and Tender Hearts by Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodríguez
This summer, our group read For Brown Girls with Sharp Edges and Tender Hearts by Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodriguez, a moving memoir and love letter to Black and Brown femmes. In Mojica Rogríguez’s memoir, she explores themes and experiences such as colorism, whiteness, imposter syndrome, religion, and decoloniality. In doing so, she captures the complexity of intersectionality and identity BIWOC carry and embody in their daily lives.

April/May Reading: Our Share of Night by Mariana Enriquez
In April and May, our group read Our Share of Night by Mariana Enriquez. In this powerful work of literary horror, Enriquez integrates strong imagery and history in a story focused on family, loss, and love. Our Share of Night is an allegory for the impact of intergenerational trauma, and also explores the significant impact of systemic oppression, military occupation, and other systemic issues on individual and collective wellbeing.
