African

[close] A virtual book club for science fiction and fantasy of the African Diaspora. Join our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/395051435057637

[close] We read and discuss fiction that raises social consciousness with regards to race/ethnicity. We also use non-fiction works as a supplement to expand our understanding of the topics touched on in the novel we're discussing. You don't have to be "woke" to join the group, but all members should be willing to read and respectfully discuss the (sometimes touchy) topics at hand with the aim of greater understanding.

[close] Africa is reading, and you are invited! Sahara Book Club is a safe place for African booklovers, at home and in the diaspora, to connect, share and geek out over books and reading! Thanks for stopping by. You can start by introducing yourself: where you are from, your genre preference, and what book you are currently reading. How The Club Works... ----- Every month we select a book to read and discuss. And while we are at it, we geek out over what's next and hot in the bookish world! You are free to join the discussion, ask questions, and contribute to the conversation however you can.

[close] Hello Readers! This group is open to all people who would like to group-read books that meet ONE OR MORE of the following criteria: - The book author is born in an African country - The book author lives predominantly in an African country - The book location is in an African country I would like to focus predominantly on fiction, but will share a biographical book every once in a while. The plan is to tackle one book a month. Sometimes, I like to throw caution to the wind and have two books by the same author in a month. After the end of each month, I encourage readers to engage in conversation regarding the book and leave their personal reviews, even if a one-liner :)
