So far this year, at the beginning of April I have already read 30 books, a mix of romance and fantasy. It works wonders for the mind and definitely helps with your emotions in this emotionally charged time.

I pity the persons who cannot understand the wonder that is reading and moving from one world to the next. So I may begin a month with a black romance and end it with shifters, magic users, gods, angels, fey and even dragons. What I do to handle what is monotony for me, is sprinkle in a bit of everything. Yes, I read a lot of different Genres and more often than not they are so far apart that some people will have a whip lash about how I move from one to the other.

Problem is….after delving so deep, I had to take a break and step into the world of Fantasy. When I started reading last year, I had no idea there were so many black authors around who had so many stories to share and tell and I am super glad I delved into that world. Jones, to Joan Vassar, to Denesha Little, to Rebekah Weatherspoon and so many more….the list is extensive and to top it off, I became a part of an awesome book club (yah me!!!) and subscribed to a black woman curated book box called ReadHer. Well, lets see if I can again build up some momentum with this first one for 2021.Ģ020 was a year full of Black Romance and reading several new authors. I still cant believe that I have so thoroughly ignored my blog!!!
