[close] This year I am determined to not only find, but keep my joy in all that I do! Life can become so mundane, challenging and overwhelming with all that we face from day to day, both internally, and externally. Reading has long been an escape, stress reliever and joy inducing hobby in my life, and I want to share it with you! Keeping Up with the Joy is a social book club that will meet both virtually and IN PERSON, monthly; and is designed to allow space for fellowship, friendship, food and finding the joy in reading and social connection! Each book is unique in genre, but similar in that each title contains the word JOY in some form or fashion. Below is our reading list for the year! January Walking in my Joy: In These Streets by Jenifer Lewis February Black Joy: Stories of Resistance, Resilience, and Restoration by Tracey Michae’l Lewis- Giggetts March Possessing the Secrets of Joy by Alice Walker April Small Joys by Elvin James Mensah May The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan June Black Boy Joy by Kwame Mbalia July Pride and Joy by Louisa Onome August Feeding the Soul (Because It’s My Business): Finding Our Way to Joy, Love, and Freedom by Tabitha Brown September Joy is My Justice: Reclaim What Is Yours by Tanmeet Sethi October The Girl Who Found Joy by Amy Vansant November The Gravity of Joy: A Story of Being Lost and Found by Angela Gorrell Williams December The Black Joy Project by Kleaver Cruz The group will meet in-person on the first Saturday of each month to discuss the previous months book, and introduce the following months book! Meeting location will likely be a local eatery for food, fellowship and fun as we explore each book together.
