Here are the books, blogs, and other random reads that I enjoy.
Urban Fiction & Romance:
- All things Sister Souljah! – The Midnight trilogy is the hood’s version of the Twilight saga. In March 2021, Souljah will be releasing Life After Death where she’ll be reviving my favorite character of hers, Winter. Sista Souljah has a beautiful way of weaving ghetto tales, history & current events, art, & culture into the most exciting reads with remarkable character arcs. *chef’s kiss!*
- The cutesy works of Jasmine Guillory – So far Jasmine has released a five-book romance series that has the bubbly goodness of traditional romance novels with a fresh take one the subtleties of interracial dating, career woes, and unlikely pairs. If you enjoy light reads & happy endings, her work won’t disappoint!
Personal Growth & Finance:
- Darryl Boyles – Boyles has written a very practical, reader friendly book on financial wellness. One Paycheck at a Time is a short book with a lot of power. I’ve been able to pay down debts using his advice and look forward to knocking down more. Get a copy!
