in , by Linda B Hurd, September 27, 2017


On my blog site, I really want to just be more transparent and share so many topics that can help other sisters out. I believe if you can name your top five rappers or even singers, then you can name your top five authors. Of course, everything takes time. No pressure applied to anyone. I also want to say that you do not even have to be a black woman to mentally indulge in these books either. I just feel that it is my calling to also be a voice for those black girls and women who really need to never stop educating their selves. 

I am a very avid reader and I wanted to be begin my book taste and book reviews with my readers. I believe that reading books can help you cope with hardships in life and even allow discover your own inner strength that you possibly never embraced. With this very first list of books I will provided links, so you can access the books easily. I have read all five books and I would not recommend anything that I felt someone else could not benefit from.
