Urban Fiction

[close] I searched all over GR and I have yet to find a group of beta readers/reviewers strictly for AA fiction. Not that we want to exclude any group but AA fiction is not mainstream and the books may have different elements the author may be to shy to share (language, experiences, lifestyles etc). Possible Genres: Urban Fiction Erotica Romance Urban Fantasy/Paranormal Interracial/Multi-cultural and anything else I left out So if you need someone to read that gritty street fiction novel or the "I can't believe I just wrote this sex scene" book this group is for you.

[close] In this bookclub we will read street lit and urban fiction from all African American authors. We will also read 2 books a month depending on the book size.

[close] Get in, homegirl, we're going reading! GBC is a space that welcomes you to sit back, relax, and come ki-ki over some good urban books and cocktails (don't worry, mocktails are equally respected, lol.) While GBC welcomes everyone, you'll love it here if you love a good urban book! I'm talking about good storylines with oh-so-steamy scenes you can almost feel. GBC is for everyone, from the well-read girls to the girls just dipping their toe back into the reading pool; wherever you are in your reading journey, GBC welcomes you and hopes you have fun, you feel heard, and you feel loved.

[close] Welcome to a space created for Black women in their 20s who love urban fiction and value deep, meaningful discussions. Each week, we meet virtually to explore chapters filled with the raw, relatable, and powerful stories that mirror our own experiences. Once we finish a book, we take it offline for in-person meetups to connect on a deeper level. Our conversations go beyond the pages, tying the struggles, triumphs, and lessons of urban fiction to our day-to-day lives as Black women navigating love, career, friendships, and self-discovery. This is more than a book club—it’s a safe space for real talk, reflection, and community. If you’re ready to laugh, cry, debate, and find solidarity in these stories, we’d love to have you join us. Let’s read, relate, and grow together!
