If you enjoyed Kindred (or never got to it!) ➡️ try the graphic novel version #tbrtuesday

Released today! It follows Dana as she inexplicably travels back in time to when her ancestors were slaves. It tackles history, race, & gender with strength. ??

You can use it for #LitsyAtoZ for "K" or the #LitsyReadingChallenge for "written by a WOC" #LitsyRC3 or #Popsugar's tasks for "story within a story" or "takes place on two different time periods."

SuperPunkNinja Yes! Want! Want! Want! 8y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa I just finished Kindred, and yes I'll be picking this one up! 8y
MoniqueReads305 I want. I loved the novel and it was the first book I read by Butler. It got me to read Lilith's Blood. 8y

Happy birthday to Sandra Cisneros! To celebrate, we recommend picking up her most recent book, a collection of nonfiction essays that, together, form a memoir of her life and lived experiences. It's full of Cisneros' signature wisdom and grace & is a great peek into her life as a Latina woman in the US, issues of economic inequality, cultural critique, & overcoming misogyny with female identity & sexuality. 🙌🏽

#TBRTuesday: If you like Gloria Steinem's works ➡️ try Florynce "Flo" Kennedy: The Life of a Black Feminist Radical.

We love reading a biography that does more than just educate, but also broadens perspectives and changes the way certain segments of history are viewed. This biography does just that. It is well written and does a great job informing readers about the life of Florynce Kennedy: her trials, tribulations, and triumphs. ??

Like Americanah? ➡️ try Purple Hibiscus

Kambili lives with her wealthy Catholic father, who doesn't give her much freedom. When a military coup overtakes Nigeria, he sends her & her brother to live with their aunt, where she learns to have agency in her life. It's Adichie's first novel & a great exploration of life in Nigeria. ?
