Enjoy the video! See you in another one soon!
We haven't forgotten and we're going to keep reminding y'all!
This video is full of tried and true (meaning "old"...but paper doesn't go bad) Black romance reads that I love and would love for others to read!
I hope you are joining in on the Nekkid Readathon, but even if you aren't, these books are great reads!

Black lives still matter, even though Breonna Taylor was shitted on by the Amerkkkan Justshit System. Just because there's no intro, don't think I forgot.
The Nekkid Readathon was created by The Black Prose Club to celebrate Black love written by Black authors through reading. I hope you will join in!

Y'all...it's 13 books. For now I'm going to opt to be lazy & not include links. This may be edited later, but I'm tired. LOL

Hi everybody, I'm super excited to announce this readalong and I hope that as many of you as possible will want to participate.
If you need the books, you can purchase them in bundles at sistahscifi.com . I misspoke in the video. Isis doesn't sell art prints, she sells shirts and totes along with books. By all means...GO ORDER BOOKS!

Let it be known that Bookoutlet had posted some kind of corrective statement since I filmed this video. It doesn't change where I stand, so I'm still sharing it.
I recommend taking a day (a whole day) to watch a few of these cartoons as a form of self care during these times. I certainly have been doing so.

Feel free to read a blue book with me this month. I didn't even think about that when I filmed this video!
This is my wrap up for the first part of the #MagicalReadathon for 2020!
I didn't think I'd get through so many books so fast, but goal accomplished, and then some!

Thanks for watching!
Here are some of my suggestions for reading during a time when we are supposed to stay our asses in the house! They are, in my opinion, reads that will allow you to get out while you're stuck in that are also not so sweet.
