Happy BLACK History Month. I read Black books every month but I got two stacks for y'all.

First stack is books by Black authors I loved and the second are the ones I’m getting to.

Front cover of Cinderella is Dead by Kalynn Bayron. Illustration of a Black teenage girl with shoulder length curly hair; wearing a blue ball gown, covered in scratches.

Black queer fantasy rec of the day.

200 years after Cinderella, women live in servitude. Girls are chosen by men at the royal ball, or their life is forfeit. One lesbian girl refuses to obey the system, seeking a different ending to the fairytale.

Full of inspirational rage!

I officially finished my 4th books of January. It was a pretty good book! I really enjoyed it. I didn't need all the advice that was given at the moment but I definitely could use it in the future!
