Deep sigh, so life was lifeing! 

Sistah Scifi preorders of BLACKHEART MAN signed by Nalo Hopkinson will ship tomorrow! Please email us with questions, and thank you so much for your patience. Sistah Scifi Siblings are the absolute best!!!

100% agree with Danzi Books! If you are looking for a magical Caribbean fantasy written in musical vernacular with queer, polyamoryous, multi-ethnic characters......BLACKHEART MAN is definitely the one!!

If you're unfamiliar with her work, Nalo is a master of creating rich, Caribbean-inspired worlds with unforgettable characters. BLACKHEART MAN is no different -- and I am in love with how she infuses creole languages into the storytelling. 

Speaking of storytelling, I swoon when authors give use stories within stories. Through Veycosi, we learn more about the history and folklore of the island of Chynchin, and how those lines become blurred over time.

Thanks again @sagapressbooks! So happy to be part of the #SagaSaysCrew!

“She gets the new shoes out their box. She tosses them into the water. They sink. She waits. She is waiting for the frogs in the reefs to stop chirping. For the sucking pit of grief in her chest to fill in.” #bnplit #nalohopkinson #blackspeculativefiction #bookstagram #fallinginlovewithhominids

Happy Publication Week to Nalo Hopkinson for Jamaica Ginger and Other Concoctions!!!

From an introduction by Nisi Shawl to a dream like utopia, this collection of short stories and essays is a true gem. Sistah Scifi Siblings that attended Sistah Scifi Series at San Francisco Public Library earlier this month got early access to the masterful work. 

📸 Credit to @the.smashbot.diaries I am a big, big fan of Hopkinson's work so when I saw that she had a new book coming out this fall I squealed with delight!
