www.instagram.com/reel/CaKiDB0ABKz/ Debbie Doesn’t Do It Anymore by Walter Mosley was a book that I enjoyed surprisingly enough. I could feel all the work Mosley did to try to right his lead female character authentically. He didn’t do too badly. This book was interesting and had that vibe of someone trying to do things differently but […]
Day 18: Fave Toni Morrison Character Hands down my favourite Character from a Toni Morrison novel is Pilate Dead from Song of Solomon. What an interesting, touching, and mysterious character. If you haven’t yet met Song of Solomon what are you waiting for. Get to it! You won’t regret it. Song of Solon is also […]
Day 17: Rec from Bookstagrammer This book has been recommended to me by so many people. The cover is haunting to say the least. I’m looking forward to it but I’m afraid it’s going to make me mad as hell. Thanks to @prettybrowneyereader @musical_tati and @jerseyfemme for recommending this one to me. Promise I will […]
Day 16: Cooking/Baking Books: This cookbook was gifted to me by my lovely friend Rosa. This cookbook is going to add some spicy diversity to my cooking.

Day 14: La Vie en Rose Today’s books are in the vein of love and messy relationships. These two books are by another one of my favorite authors, Bernice L McFadden aka Geneva Holliday.

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 […]
