I know I do some crazy stuff because how am I already finished with my first book of the year… started at 5 this morning and I’m done 🫢😩😬 #booksky
January 1, 2025 at 2:14 PM
Yes… I’ve been setting my reading goal to only 12 books for the last 4 years because a goal ain’t about to stress me out 🙃

I think I’ve found my favorite Christmas romance/spice recommendation of the season… I’m so sad I’m almost finished 😩😩😩

After watching Rustin… I had to track him to see if he too was hanging with Baldwin during the movement and y’all already know Baldwin was with all things moving! 👏🏾👏🏾
December 23, 2024 at 3:53 AM
Currently reading… and it’s cute so far! Have you read it?
December 22, 2024 at 1:28 PM
Rereading Sula at 39 is definitely a move. If you are exploring the work of Toni Morrison… or any classic… I would say a reread may be necessary especially if you read it 10-15 years removed. What’s the last book you reread at a different age and your eyes opened a little more in time?

This was a good time 💃🏽 Add it to your holiday TBR!
Holidaze by Bella Jay is cute. It’s a holiday novella sure to delight the senses and make you fall in love with Bricks and Nola.

To our Nikki Rosa…

I met Soror Nikki for a 3rd time in 2019… and I was just as starstruck as the first time I met her…

She was ours and we hers… May she rest and find favor because she gave us so much and we could never repay her in this lifetime. 💔🐘
