We are all reeling in learning of the passing of Michael K. Smith. Life is short man. We all have issues. We all deal with life differently. One thing Iโ€™m happy about though is this: โ€œHe was always confident with his relationship with God." "Every single time he came, he was humble," Pastor, Brandon K. Washington said. "He was a humble, gentle soul." One thing in life is certain: death. But if you have Jesus, you will be assured that life is everlasting in the Lordโ€™s presence. Rest In Peace Michael K. Williams. ๐Ÿ•Š #blackbookstagram #maddblackreads #blackbibliophile #wellreadblackgirl #blackreaders #readingislit #goodreads #ireadya #booksofinstagram #bookstagram #becauseofblackreaders #booknerdigans #diversifybookstagram #readersofinstagram #fortheloveofreading #blackgirlsread #lovetoread #blackwomenread #blackandbookish #idratherbereading #blackbookblogger #becauseofreading #readblackauthors #goodblackreads #bookrecommendation #moodreader #readallthebooks #michaelkwilliams https://www.instagram.com/p/CTim1TWgVID/?utm_medium=tumblr

The Summer of Everything
I just started The Summer of Everything by Julian Winters and I already love it. The book focuses on a biracial gay teen in Cali and his friend group. It also has a friends to lover tropes for those who are a fan of that. Not to mention how diverse the characters are. There are so many LGBTQ+ characters along with the Mexican-American love interest. So far, this book is so relatable and basically a coming of age film on paper. 100% recommended. Update coming soon :)ย

This book is about two friends, Sofia and Maddi, who love to play together, with Maddi helping Sofia with her soccer skills - but when Sofia goes to Maddi's house for a snack and sees only a bottle of milk in her fridge, she gets worried. Maddi asks Sofia not to tell, so Sofia instead tries to bring Maddi food in her backpack, resulting in some gross and silly mishaps like trying to bring fish and raw eggs, but when she brings a burrito, which does last the trip in the backpack but is only a temporary solution, she realizes she needs to break her promise and tell her mom - after which the family brings food over (not in a condescending way at all, but as gesture of friendship) and the moms become friends, while Maddi is initially hurt by the broken promise but heartened when Sofia agrees that "Promises are important," but tells her friend "But you're more important." I like that, anti-stereotypically, Sofia, the wealthier student, is Hispanic, while Maddi, with lower socioeconomic-status, is white. Also, Maddi is portrayed not as a person to be pitied or othered, but as a girl just like anyone else - a loving big sister who is great at soccer, helps her friends, and loves her family. #socioemotionallearning #socialemotionallearning #sel #socioeconomicstatus #raisingkindkids #weneeddiversebooks #diversekidlit #diversechildrensliterature #friendshipbooks #childrenwhoread #diversifybookstagram #diverseperspectives https://www.instagram.com/p/CCBZ2NuA7Vz/?igshid=t03tzag66vqt

Q: Tell me your favorite diverse book - or if you can't pick just ONE, tell me your latest diverse read. And if you can't think of one, might I recommend The Hate U Give or Concrete Rose by Angie Thomas?. Happy #SignedBookSundays hosted by @bookcrushin & @diamondxgirl with this weeks theme: High Stakes. Angie Thomas's books have high stakes for Black people - showing the injustice of the world against those who have Black skin, and how the odds are always against them compared to white people. I'm about 35% into the audiobook of Concrete Rose and I love #AngieThomas so very much - her writing is SO GOOD. ๐ŸŒน And oh yeah, the stakes are already high. Things have already happened. Its intense. Diverse books are important to see different view points from your own life, and for Black people to see themselves in books and on the covers of books in stores. ๐Ÿฅ€ #ConcreteRose hit #1 on the NYT Bestsellers List, and #TheHateUGive is at #3. AS IT SHOULD BE! That makes me so happy. Concrete Rose is the story of Big Mav - when he was still a teenager and thrust into fatherhood before he was ready. This is his story. You can read this without having read The Hate U Give, but I do recommend both books. #ownvoicesbookchallenge - Author love #NationalComplimentDay #myfandomobsessionsjan21 - Old friends #bookscoasttocoastjan21 - #SignedBookSunday #DiverseReads #diversebooks #diverserecs #BookRecommendations #diversifybookstagram #THUGLIFE #librarybookstagram #audiobooksofinstagram #audiobooklovers #librarybooksarethebest #diverseauthors #diversekidlit https://www.instagram.com/p/CKbp83LAh5w/?igshid=1llotiisb397q

Artist Spotlight: Leroy Campbell โ€œI had became very interested in the art of story-telling and was driven to find inspiring works that would guide my direction as an artist. During my childhood, I had always listened to the stories that my elders shared, and I learned about its importance in African American culture. I was inspired to find a way to incorporate what I learned into my art."

Aww, this makes me so happy!! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ #Repost @intentionallybookish with @get_repost ใƒปใƒปใƒป Iโ€™ve got a new favorite historical romance! ๐Ÿฅฐ Picked this up from my used bookstore on Friday & read it in only โœŒ๐Ÿฝsittings. Itโ€™s a Beauty & the Beast retelling and, in a word, perfection. After only a few chapters, I found myself wishing I had a pen nearby to annotate because this was chock full of the most delicious prose & snappy dialogue. I adored how unapologetically feminist the heroine was (in an age where women were considered mere property) & how supportive the hero was of her. The heroโ€™s struggle with his appearance as โ€œthe beastโ€ was heartbreaking, but our girl was right beside him to pick up those heartbroken pieces up & put them back together. ๐Ÿ’” The writing felt fresh & oftentimes contemporary, which I appreciated as a historical romance newbie. This is one Iโ€™d put on the reread shelf for sure! Are you a fan of fairy tale retellings? If so, whatโ€™s your fave? ๐ŸŒŸ โ€ข โ€ข โ€ข #historicalromance #whatwomenread #paperbacks #romancelandia #ireadromance #romancereadersofig #romancebooks #bookaesthetics #bookish #currentlyreading #bookstagram #romancestagram #bookishfeatures #romancereads #instabooks #diversifybookstagram #alwaysreading #diverselybookish #usedbooks #usedbookstore #weekendreads #blackbookstagram #usedbooks @amaliehoward https://www.instagram.com/p/CESHVVdge0H/?igshid=1k8lmzays4iw0

Holiday reading in the house! * We have many traditions for the holiday season, from baking cookies, matching pajamas and choosing the book to focus on over the holidays. Itโ€™s fine because during the long break we can all binge our books, dog deep into the topics, find podcasts and look up supporting articles and interviews. * 2020 has us focusing on our (#Black) family. Weโ€™ve read @michelleobama โ€˜s book, and now weโ€™re reading Volume I of @barackobama โ€˜s presidential Memoir: A Promised Land. * Mac is a great reader. One thing we do to support his reading comprehension is re-reading books. At his age, weโ€™re focusing on storytelling, understanding and then following up with writing down concepts. @homeschoolingwithjazz has given us so many tools to help enrich the virtual school environment and Iโ€™m so grateful for her! * * * What are you reading over the holiday break? * * * #Diversereads #Diversespines #Diversebooks #Diversifybookstagram #Blackbookstagram #Representationmatters #Ownvoices #AmplifyBlackvoices #blackfathersmatter #blackfathers #realdadsnetwork #blackfamily #blackfamilygoals #blackfamilymatters #christmas #holidayseason #blackfamilybookclub #buffaloplaid #joy https://www.instagram.com/p/CId1sBaAKvO/?igshid=n3fqqajcc6pe

Silvia Moreno-Garcia newest novel is classic goth, a fun and scary ride. We listened to it during our road trip and loved it. Buffy fans should definitely check it out.
