The Black Rose | Tananarive Due
Pickpick

This was a fascinating read! I knew nothing about Madame C.J. Walker before reading this and now I want to fall down the rabbit hole and learn as much as I can about this amazing woman. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys stories of women who push ahead, regardless of the obstacles ahead - she never gave up! A true testament to what hard work, determination and grit can achieve 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Enjoying an evening with Finding Your Roots on PBS and my newest book, “The Black Rose” by Tananarive Due, which is the fascinating and inspiring story of the first black female millionaire Madame C.J. Walker. A good evening indeed 🥰

I have a strange #hobby. Other than reading, I like to look at real estate listings in semi-random places. For example, I was watching a TV show that mentioned Cranston, so I decided to look at houses there! 🤷🏻‍♀️

#selfimprovementseptember (maybe my improvement needs to be a better hobby! 🤣)

rubyslippersreads I think other people must have the same hobby—that‘s why they like to watch “Househunters”! 😁 5y

mom2bugnbee As long as your hobby is enjoyable & doesn't hurt others or property, I say go for it! No judgment! 5y
Brithomas17 Yesss 🙌🏻 I do the same! Lol totally love looking at houses! 5y
Prairiegirl_reading I do this too!! 5y
monalyisha I live soooo close to there! Were you watching that Cranston medium show? Because my mother-in-law was *just* telling me about it. 5y
Lindy There‘s a character who spends a lot of time searching online for faraway house listings in 5y
OriginalCyn620 No judgment here! You do you! 😉 5y
BarbaraBB I can totally understand that hobby. I may pick it up as well 😀 5y
Ruthiella I love doing that too! One of the perks of the internet! 5y
TheSpineView I like too like looking at real estate in other places. I love when there are a lot of pictures to see. 5y
Megabooks @Lindy Thanks for the recommendation, Lindy! I‘ve stacked it. 5y
Megabooks @monalyisha No, embarrassingly enough, I was watching an episode of My 600 lb Life. 🤦🏻‍♀️ The houses in Cranston are really pretty and interesting. That most of them have those pretty dormers is not like anywhere else I‘ve looked at! 5y
Megabooks Thanks y‘all for making me feel more normal!! It‘s just fun to see what houses look like, what 300k or 1m will buy different places, etc! @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @rubyslippersreads @Leftcoastzen @mom2bugnbee @Brithomas17 @Prairiegirl_reading @OriginalCyn620 @BarbaraBB @Ruthiella @TheSpineView 5y
ValerieAndBooks I love doing this sort of thing too! Realtor.com and Zillow apps get a lot of use on my iPhone 😂! 5y
