So, this hasn’t happened in a while...I’m actually in between books! I finished Ghost almost two weeks ago, and I just finished Jane Eyre last night! So, since I usually have a physical book and an ebook going at the same time, I’d like to introduce you to my next two books. 📚 The next physical book I will be reading is “Children of Blood and Bone” by Tomi Adeyemi. It is a fantasy novel that draws inspiration from all different sources, but is also greatly influenced by West African mythology and Yoruba culture (the author is Nigerian-American and her mother helped her with aspects of the novel using the Yoruba language). This book was the selection for The Tonight Show’s 2018 summer reading. Its sequel, “Children of Virtue and Vengeance”, is scheduled to be released in December. (This series is a planned trilogy.) And...for the first time in a long time, my edition is hardcover! (I don’t think it was out in paperback yet when I bought it back in April.) 📚 My ebook read is “The Color Purple” by Alice Walker. This novel won the 1983 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and is regarded as a classic of both feminist and African-American literature. It came in at number 27 in PBS’ #greatamericanread and is the highest-ranking book on the list by an author of color. #womenauthors #womenauthorsofcolor #womenprotagonists #womenprotagonistsofcolor #tomiadeyemi #alicewalker #fantasynovels #epistolarynovel #pulitzerprizewinner #nationalbookaward #newyorktimesbestsellers https://www.instagram.com/p/B2uFrSNp12G/?igshid=18ehxnxvy4oa8
