Being Alive is a Good Idea : A Wide Ranging… de Nikki; Edim Giovanni, Glory

I love Nikki Giovanni so much that when I found out this tiny book was going to be a part of Independent Bookstore Day, I knew I had to rush out and get a copy, even if it meant interrupting my sacred Dewey's Readathon to do it. This was an excellent decision.

I picked this book up to read on a day when I was unreasonably cranky for no obvious reason, hoping it would adjust my attitude for me, and OH GOODNESS, DID IT EVER. Nikki Giovanni is a treasure, and as soon as I put this down I made sure to go follow Glory Edim everywhere I wasn't already following her.

Listen. ALL OF NIKKI GIOVANNI'S OPINIONS ARE CORRECT. This is a wide-ranging conversation, as advertised, but I would follow her wherever she goes. From Vice President Harris to the fuckability of Frederick Douglas to space to living in the Appalachias to learning Chinese to her own poetry to Kanye...

Well-Read Black Girl: Finding Our Stories, D… de Glory Edim

A staggering list of books written by WOC. Some of the novels I have read, some have been on my TBR, and some I've never heard of before. Alternating between lists of books to read and authors talking about which authors/narratives sparkled their interest in reading, had me rushing to look up each title.

Well-Read Black Girl: Finding Our Stories, D… de Glory Edim

This book, with a series of short stories, helped me understand why reading a diversity of authors matters. Race does matter and for me it was very interesting to have those perspectives explicitly stated in these black women's stories. I have read academic articles and books, but these incredible women writers brought home. They discuss how finding themselves represented in the pages of a book helped shaped their self-image and world view.

Well-Read Black Girl: Finding Our Stories, D… de Glory Edim

For everyone who has ever questioned why representation matters so much in fiction, this book is for you. A series of essays by several Black women who discuss how finding themselves represented in the pages of a book helped shaped their self-image and world view. Plus it comes with a lot of recommendations so how can you beat that?
