Celebrate Black History Month with Black stories that span cultures and continents. From Nigeria to Jamaica, Uganda to the United States, these books highlight the richness of Black experiences worldwide. Join me in exploring powerful voices that reveal our shared humanity through history, identity, love, and resilience, this month and beyond.
A continuation of my Black History Month series, I’ve been exploring and revisiting Black British classic stories that explore identity, belonging, and resilience. These books remind me of how vital it is to celebrate voices that have long been overlooked, and to recognise the struggles and strength that continue to shape Black life in Britain today.
Welcome to the October edition of my TBR Update! As I got through quite a few books last month we’re adding 4 new books across a range of genres. while staying true to my favourites genres I am still branching out with these picks. So let’s dive in!
Books are my favourite kind of gift, and putting this list together reminded me just how powerful the right story can be. These five reads span romance, historical fiction, fantasy, and beyond—but what they all share is that they linger long after the last page. Whether you’re looking for something to gift a fellow book lover or simply want to treat yourself, these are stories worth unwrapping.
My teen era defined me as a reader, and despite transitioning to a Wattpad girly and late-night online reads, I still loved traditional publishing and was exploring books with more adult themes and tropes. The following 5 books are some of my most memorable teenage reads, and I think they still hold up quite well today!
Welcome back to another edition of my TBR Update! I am keeping it light with 3 new books added to the list. Again, we have a range of genres and experiences. I’ve chosen books in my fave genres to commemorate my birthday month and only doing things I love.

These 5 books encompass everything that exists within the subgenre where a man and woman come together, whether for the first time or through complicated circumstances and realise they were meant to be all along. This post highlights some of my fave black romance authors and their works in this trope that has my heart.
