#BlackBooks '19
Hey y'all!
If you follow me on Instagram and Snapchat, you know that every day this February, in celebration of Black History Month, I highlighted a book that was either written by a Black author and/or discusses topics in relation to Black history. Now that February has come to a close and all 28 books have been shared, I have compiled a full list of all of the books, which you will find below. If you are interested in any of them, I have attached links to the titles so that you can check them out further and get them for yourselves. I hope you enjoy, and happy reading, y'all!
