These arrived yesterday!
I'm hoping to read (some of) the books mentioned in Barbara Boswell's study of Black South African women's writing.
And one of Walker's essays (about searching for artist biographies) is mentioned in Jane Austen's Bookshelf.

#QuotsyJune19 Day 15: Not sure if the quote above is from tagged book, but the #juggle aspect of motherhood referenced here seems like it. I own a copy of this book and really hope to get to it.
My reading for the summer is ambitious as always. I plan to spend some time at the beach on a blanket enjoying some good prose. #womanism #summerplans
Its not technically a deal that I can see but this book is available for Qa.99 on kindle atm and I think it‘s a really good deal for such an amazing author.
There is also a book of some of her collected poems for Qb.99 available.

I swear amazon should pay me with how often I‘m pushing book deals on kindle
pickI would be dishonest if I didn‘t say I struggled with this book; I loved it. But I found the first part of it slow. So I put it down for MONTHS. Only coming back to it last week. I love the journey of Zélie - and the homage Tomi pays to Nigeria and west African Religion. This is definitely a book to be savored and one I‘ll come back to during the summer. #books #womanism #afrofuturism
Black History month - especially this year, makes me think of all the amazing Africans American Female writers who inspire me. One of those is Zora Neale Hurston. She was a fierce, no nonsense woman who did a lot of research on black folk lore and customs. Her novel Their Eyes Were Watching God is an amazing story of freedom of self. I really adore her. Plus this quote fits me to well lol. #blackhistorymonth #womanism
