this is your reminder to read books by Black authors all month, all year, every year— not just during Black History Month. it’s crucially important to be able to diversify your reading and your bookshelves. expand your mind, your perspectives, your knowledge, and your taste. if you don’t know where to start, here are some recommendations!

pink, sophisticated & sometimes fatale <3 (added some essential nonfic & poetry!)

books that surround a character that is lesbian, bisexual, or wlw !! this is NOT at all a recommendation list this is just a collection of sapphic books !! if you have any suggestions please put it in the comments ! will be updated regularly

short story collections by a single author in a variety of genres. recommendations welcome!

reading diversely is not a trend. it’s the bare minimum. and if your shelves don’t reflect that, you’re missing out.

Books on my TBR with LGBTQIA+ characters or themes.

A list of books (both fiction and non fiction) that deal with nuance in Christianity from the perspective of preachers, theologians, deep thinkers and fictional authors. Books that address the lives and experiences of people marginalised by harsh theology. For the people that the modern Bible and the Church left out and forgot.
