What books are on your summer reading list this year?

Tracee Dunblazier The book I'll be reading this Summer is The Book of Night Women by Marlon James. I can already tell from the first few pages it's going to be bitter-sweet for me. Not only in the devastating story of slavery but the dialect it's written in. I'm finding myself reading and re-reading paragraphs just to get the story let alone any deeper layers of meaning. Hopefully, I'll acclimate quickly. Either way, I am pressing on. If you've read either of my books then you know how deeply I value the voices of the ancestors and the opportunities they're offering us to heal today. I will keep you posted.

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

Tracee Dunblazier I think the greatest mystery in my life thus far, has been my relationship with my father. By the age of eleven, we'd established a deeply spiritual and energetic connection. Mostly, based on similarity, mutual respect, and a lack of emotional connection. His passing that year left me with the same relationship I'd always had. His spiritual presence without any way to understand its purpose and wisdom. Finally, in my adulthood, I was able to hone the skills--mainly the ability to channel a conversation with the spirit of my father without the lens of my grief or adolescent confusion--that could reveal many of my long unanswered questions.

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Tracee Dunblazier After giving it some thought, I am surprised to report that my all time favorite fictional couple is Col. Steve Austin and Dr. Jaimie Sommers. Having felt like a strange bird as a child, I fantasized about marrying a man like-- bionic Steve Austin. I could identify with both of their realistic super-powers and it gave me hope of finding a life mate. Even though they divorced--because saving the world is hard on relationships--they always remained close and deeply cared for one another.
