Day 12: Snackin’ & Readin’: Eating and reading is not my thing. I just can’t bear seeing grease spots or food stains on my beautiful hardcovers. So I usually just drink tea or some kind of drink. I’m a bit obsessive about keeping my books in excellent condition. This picture I took is of one […]
Day 11: Surprise! Being online reading publicly has allowed le to exchange ideas on reading but it’s also give me the chance to meet some pretty awesome people. For me that’s the richest part of creating content on platforms like YouTube and Instagram. As a result, the last biggest surprise I had was this stack […]
Day 10: True Life I began reading The Selected Letters of Ralph Ellison last year. It’s been an amazing endeavour reading and learning about him. I have a love of letters and reading epistolary formatted books. Epistolary novels aren’t as prevalent these days as they were in the past. This being said a girl can […]
Day 9: Last #RSL Pic on Phone This is the last pic on my phone, which is the stack of books I used for the Book Spine Poetry video. I’ve had the pleasure of reading all of these books except In Search of Satisfaction by J. California Cooper, An Untamed Stated by Roxane Gay, and […]

Day 5: Anticipated New Release My most anticipated release is A Woman of Endurance by Dahlma Llanos-Figueroa. My goodness check out that fabulous cover designed by Haitian born artist, based in New York, Fabiola Jean-Louis. It’s such a powerful, intense cover that is already speaking to the reader before we even get started with the […]
Day 4: Unexpected Fave Choosing an unexpected fave was very difficult. I was trying to find a book I hadn’t already written about but it seems faves are faves for a reason. We can’t stop talking about them. This was the second book I read by J. California Cooper. The first book I read was […]
Day 3: Home Sweet Home What is Home Sweet Home for an avid reader? Well I guess that could almost be anything. For me it’s lying on the sofa with a hot cup of tea or sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of tea. Actually anywhere I can pull out a book […]
