I am looking for a variety of book recommendations by black owned authors! Romance, nonfiction, self help( love, boundaries, mental health) , and mystery

[Raven]

Good morning Cierra 🫶🏾 I see you already have Seven Days in June on your list, so I’d also recommend You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty by Emezi and Before I Let Go by Ryan, I think they were both great reads! ☺️

[Dréya]

Hello Cierra. I am not sure of the genre for this book but it was wonderful to read and a great conversation piece for my book club. It's called "The Truth Is in the Wine" and it's by Curtis Bunn. Give it a read.

Every time someone posts a picture of a book, it shows uo blurry for me.

@Maya I just purchased Women, Race & Class by Angela Davis a week and a half ago. It was my pick for Black History Month. I hope I can get to it this last week of the month. I read All About Love by bell hooks 2 years ago.
