Only a few pages in and Luvvie has me crying laughing. Such a fun night hearing her talk about her life, blogging and book. She's so transparent and pulls no punches. I love that she addresses real life issues and says the things that are in your head. Excellent writer. #ImJudgingYou #jamreads

The Fire Next Time | James Baldwin

Saw this greatness during my visit to the Grand Opening of the National Museum of African American History & Culture. Absolutely Amazing!!

BookishFeminist 😱 you braved the grand opening? How was it? Can't wait to go myself! 8y
BellaBookNook Oh I can't wait to go. 8y
jamreads @BookishFeminist it was absolutely AMAZING, powerful and overwhelming. The museum is massive & you will need at least 2-3 visits to be able to absorb the richness. SUPER crowded so pack your patience & comfortable shoes. Most of the underground areas were overcrowded and they wouldn't let anymore folks enter. I highly recommend waiting until 2017 to visit. It's a definite must see for all 💜 8y

Snuggled in bed and doing a little late night reading. Enjoying this book so far. So relevant given the times we are in as it relates to immigration. #jamreads #fridayreads #bookofthemonthclub

Queen Sugar: A Novel | Natalie Baszile
post image

When your friends know that you're an ultimate bookworm & invite you to this awesomeness!! I had the wonderful opportunity to attend a live taping of "A Conversation with Natalie Baszile," Author of Queen Sugar at WHUT Howard University Television. It was a fantastic evening as Mrs. Baszile provided insight on her book and the Queen Sugar series on #Oprah's #OWNTV! #jamreads #QueenSugar

BookishFeminist How cool! So jealous. Looks like you had an amazing time! 8y
jamreads @BookishFeminist - It was a great evening. She was so personable and had a beautiful spirit. She's hoping that the book resonates with all women. She spoke about how everyone can see some part of themselves, family or friends in the book. 8y
BookishFeminist @jamreads That really does sound wonderful. I need to read this book already! It's been on my TBR for a long time. 8y

I had a great Labor Day weekend vacay & visited Birmingham's oldest independent bookstore, LITTLE PROFESSOR BOOKCENTER! A cozy and quaint location with a cafe attached. I picked up Oprah's latest bookclub pick, LOVE WARRIOR and THE FIRE THIS TIME by Jesmyn Ward. #jamreads #getlitsy #getindie
