Indie Book Club discussion

The first month of the book club is June and we're starting it with"I Should Have Worn A Curtain: A Tale of Bulimia, Self-loathing, and Romance" I am currently reading it and though I am not done with it, I know this is the kind of books that I want to participate in my book club!

About the author Samyra Alexander:

Samyra Alexander was born and raised in Gary IN. After receiving a D in 4th grade Art for failing to master Primary and Secondary colors, Samyra was told that she lacked creativity. But the yearning to express herself artistically never went away: Samyra turned to words, finding a creative spart that resulted in "I should have worn a curtain." Twelve years later, a national pandemic gave her the time she needed to release her novel into the world. Samyra holds a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and is passionate about exploring mental health issues and their accompanying social taboos, within the context of creative fiction.

Hello to you all! I just wanted to come quick and say that the live with Samyra was posted on the page of the book club on my website and is also available as episode seven of the second season of my podcast Wild Thoughts!

In the live we talked about what it is like to be a black woman in this world — facing sexism and racism and sometimes not being able to find out which one it is.
We talked about the book, so if you did not read it or did not finish it, be careful there are spoilers in this whole live!
We talked about mental health, eating disorder and many more topics.
