I can’t believe I read so much this year!

"Everything about the place was designed to make you feel part of a community, but at night, in my twin bed, I felt a loneliness so complete it made my teeth hurt. A loneliness like grief, as if I were missing somebody who has died and would never come back." Symptomatic by Danny Senna 💫👌🏾 Book 22 - The Free Black Women's Library Reading Challenge 📚💕🙌🏾📚💕🙌🏾 Over the weekend I read this urban fiction drama about a young multiracial woman writer trying to make a life for herself in New York City. She confronts the complications of being a lone woman of color in a city that emphasizes and feeds her isolation and sadness, this leads to her forming dangerous and desperate relationships. City life and its characters can be incredibly debilitating, and even more so for a quiet and withdrawn woman of color who has no idea who she is, what she needs or wants. Danny shares how and why in a way that is matter of fact, scary, poignant and accurate.

12 Days of Reading Books!

I originally decided to make a list of 12 books but then since I wasn’t sure if I would complete this challenge, I decided to make it a list of 6 books. But in case I do finish reading these 6 books before Christmas I might later add more books to the list.

1. The Upside of Unrequited by Becky Albertalli

2. Note To Self by Connor Franta

3. The Marble Collector by Cecelia Ahern

4. The Haunting of Sunshine Girl by Alyssa Sheinmel and Paige McKenzie

5. Drivers Dead by Peter Lerangis

6. Let It Snow by John Green, Lauren Myracle, and Maureen Johnson

The books (1-5) were randomly selected from my TBR jar. I really hope I complete this reading challenge. :)

12 Days Of Reading

Ok. So, I decided to do a Christmas reading challenge. But the thing is that not all the books that I'll be reading are Christmas related because at the moment I don’t own any Christmas related books except for maybe one. I'll post the list of books that I'll be reading in my next post. I will also try to put up reviews of the books. 

Stay tuned if you wish to know which books I will pick for this challenge.
