I am looking for a variety of book recommendations by black owned authors! Romance, nonfiction, self help( love, boundaries, mental health) , and mystery

Good morning Cierra 🫶🏾 I see you already have Seven Days in June on your list, so I’d also recommend You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty by Emezi and Before I Let Go by Ryan, I think they were both great reads! ☺️
Hello Cierra. I am not sure of the genre for this book but it was wonderful to read and a great conversation piece for my book club. It's called "The Truth Is in the Wine" and it's by Curtis Bunn. Give it a read.Cierra wrote: "I am looking for a variety of book recommendations by black owned authors! Romance, nonfiction, self help( love, boundaries, mental health) , and mystery"
Thank you both for the suggestions! I have added them to my want to read lists! My next reads will be Seven days in June and A Love Song for Ricki Wilde
Happy February! I'd love to connect with folks with similar reading interests! Also: I'd like to share my recently (January 2024) published book for any and all interested! Have a great day!
Unparalyzed: Beating an Invisible Pre-Midlife Crisis
Congratulations!! That’s inspiring! I hope to join the club of published authors one day!! Just added Unparalyzed to my WTR list. I’m excited to read it! Good luck with everything! 💛💛🦋🦋🦋💛💛
Thanks so much @JayJackson!!! I sent you a friend request and would love to share my book with you (e-book version) if you are interested!!!
Hi hun! I have sent you a friend request - I have a shelf dedicated to black stories that I hope is useful 💜
I would recommend these authors & these books :)I don't really read self-help or mystery books so I don't have any recommendations for that genre, I'm sorry.

Every time someone posts a picture of a book, it shows uo blurry for me.
@Maya I just purchased Women, Race & Class by Angela Davis a week and a half ago. It was my pick for Black History Month. I hope I can get to it this last week of the month. I read All About Love by bell hooks 2 years ago.
Hey Cierra, I’m late to the party but here a a few recommendations for mystery: Bluebird, Bluebird and Blackwater rising by Attica lockAce of spades by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé
Dead dead girls by Nekesa Afia.
