It took me two days but I finally reorganised my book collection. Non-fiction is loosely grouped by major themes like science, language, politics and social sciences, biography/memoir/very specific event, occult, and history/geography, and fiction is split into crime/mystery/thriller, horror, classics, lit fic, Blak fiction and poetry, sci-fi/fantasy, and childhood faves.

My favourite room in the house ❤️

My next Black History Month request:

Pick one of James Baldwin's works and read it!!! The Fire Next Time is an excellent essay, most of us are familiar with the quote on gay white people from The Last Interview but not the rest of it. If Beale Street Could Talk even has a movie!

Book 1.

First book of 2026 completed. This was a delightful read about the friendship that formed between Helene Hanff and the staff at a London bookstore, especially the manager Frank Doel. I loved all the letter writing and how much love of books was in it. Helene was funny and quite a character. Frank was and quietly hilarious. I am so glad I chose this book first.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
