So we are almost half way through 2022, but the reading doesn’t stop. Before I get you ready for your summer reading, just want to finish out the spring with some breezy balcony and patio reading. This month’s list is all over the globe…literally, I figured I would share a few treats by giving you some historical references, a little bit of self-preservation and cultural identity, mixed with a dash of U.S. midwest and Caribbean roots, and topping you off with some sassy satire.
- Jameela Green Ruins Everything ~Zarqa Nawaz
- Good Talk: A Memoir in Conversations ~Mira Jacob
- Olga Dies Dreaming: A Novel ~Xochitl Gonzalez
- The Other Madisons: The Lost History of a President’s Black Family ~Bettye Kearse

And remember you can always go back and check out the previous month’s list and past recommendations in the “Resource” section of the website!!
We write because we believe the human spirit cannot be tamed and should not be trained. ~Nikki Giovanni
