these are the words

“This book speaks about a lot of different topics such as; self empowerment/love, femininity, etc. It’s a poetic book. To me it’s like a comfort book so that’s why I would recommend it.” - Serenity
Grown

By Tiffany D. Jackson
“This highlights the ad but real truth behind grooming an sexual assault. I think it has a wonderful ending even with all the heartbreaking things. It sheds light on the toxic parts of the music industry and makes us more aware of the creeps who control the industry.” - Liza
The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks

By Rececca Skloot
"This book goes into detail about the untold story of HeLa cells which were crucial to the advancement of medicine. It is a very insightful and eye-opening story of how poorly people of color have been treated throughout American history.” - Sima
Maybe In Another Life

By Taylor Jenkins Reid
“I love this book because it’s a great look into how our lives can play out. Is your life planned out by fate or are you alone solely responsible? And alongside its deeper meaning it also shows right or wrongs and how your decisions can affect others and not just yourself.” - Taz
The Inheritance Games

By Jennifer Lynn Barnes
“I recommend this book as it’s a fun and paced mystery filled with riddles, puzzles, and plot twists. It’s a quick read with a story that’s sure to keep the reader engaged and on their toes.”
All Boys Aren't Blue

By George M. Johnson
“A memoir about the author’s life and the challenges they faced while growing up African American and queer. I recommend this book because it not only helps to explain the difficulties of being in multiple minority groups, but it also shines light on many different parts of life in these communities. It’s a book that many queer people of color, especially our youth, can relate to and feel support from know they aren’t alone”
