February, AKA Black History Month, is almost here. In recognition of Black History Month, I am choosing to primarily read books by Black authors that focus on topics of race. Most of these books focus on the stories and lived experiences of Black people, primarily in the United States.
The Midnight Library Review: I don’t usually like to write negative reviews, but I also believe it’s important to speak up when a popular piece of media is so harmful. For a book that talks about a topic as serious as depression, this was a massive disappointment.
The new year is here and in full swing! I know this two-week mark is when many people’s resolutions can start to fall apart, so I hope you’re staying on track with yours!
Educated Review: Born into a Mormon survivalist family, Westover never entered a classroom (or doctor’s office) until she was 17. Knowing nothing about world history or other essentials, her college admittance is more than a new chapter: it’s an opening into a world far bigger than she ever imagined.
Yellowface by R.F. Kuang Review: When famous writer Athena Liu died, June Hayward didn’t mean to steal her unpublished manuscript… or so she claims. It all just happened in a fit of festering jealousy over Athena’s success. How far will June take this lie?
