I just finished . I then started, but didn't care for after looking at the beautiful cover for several weeks since I brought it home from the library. Just not my style of novel, I guess.

This Long Threadis a much-needed addition to studies of women and needle arts, which focuses on the roles needle arts play among women of color and the communities they help build.

Absolutely loved Don't Cry for Me . A novel written as a letter to a Black, gay man from his dying father. Nothing mawkish, just a depiction of an honest act of self reflection intended to, perhaps, explain, but not excuse.

Just-finished One-Shot Harry, an historical mystery set within L.A.'s Black communites in the years following the Korean War. The author has tapped into a moment in U.S. history that deserved to be much better known—and the action is fast and engaging.

The Book of Night Women this is a reread for me. I've read twice but now I am listening to the audiobook and it did not disappoint. It's narrated by Robin Miller and she is amazing.

It’s on my list for May too, however, I finished all my books for April, so I’m starting a little early. 😊. J California Cooper is one of my favorite authors, and I’ve heard that this book is really good.

[Dosha (Bluestocking7)]

I will have to look into The Wake of the Wind. I had never heard of this book. However, I have always loved J. California Cooper.

I’m only on page 30, but so far it’s a page-turner.

The Wake of the Wind is my favorite JCC book.

[Dosha (Bluestocking7)]

Just As I Am and Don’t Leave Me

[Sarah-Hope]

Just blown away by Black Cloud RisingBlack Cloud Rising. This novel is set in the south immediately after the Civil War and narrated by a Black soldier who is a non-com in the "colored" troops that are now part of the Union's occupying forces. It's complicated in the very best of ways.
