When you think of Nubia: The Awakening by @clarenceahaynes and @omarepps, what is one word that comes to mind? Our word is Black, like dripped in melanin, African Diasporic cultural richness!! Get your copy at your local #library. If you love it (and you will!), we have copies available signed by Omar Epps. Link in bio: @SistahScifi | www.sistahscifi.com Images reposted from @mrsj.r NUBIA: THE AWAKENING I can’t start this review without mentioning the stunning and vibrant cover that first attracted me to this book featuring the art of @yung.yemi. It’s such a magnificent image which perfectly reflects the story within its pages. This book is a Afrofuturistic YA set in a dystopian New York that has been ravaged by climate change. The rich get to live Up High and continue to thrive while those left on the ground have to fight to survive. Working extremely hard to perhaps one day have the opportunity to join them for a better way of life. This is a powerful read that weaves important issues so relevant in society today into its fantasy coming of age story. Climate change, class issues, racism, drug use and poverty are just some of the hard hitting subject matters. As the protagonists discover they have emerging extra-ordinary powers it makes them question why and how best they should use them. They discover more about their ancestral past in the hope it will empower them to fight for their futures. This is a book that will help younger generations know that their voice matters and that they have the strength in them to make a difference. . . . . . . . . . #nubiatheawakening #yadystopian #yadystopianfiction #yafantasy #yafantasyseries #comingofagebook #scifibooks #afrofuturism #scififantasy #representationmatters #yareads #yareader #bookcommunity #bookstagrammer #amreadingyafantasy #supportblackauthors #climatechangeawareness #blackpantherfans #epicsaga #dystopianfiction #bookcoverillustration #omarepps #fridayread #weekendreading #ancestralhomeland #SistahScifi @penguinrandomhouse @getunderlined @delacortepress (at Sistah Scifi) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnHhPkBLope/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Creating Book Reviews from my Summer Readers List

My mother's footsteps Were so quiet I barely heard her leave

John Green, Turtles All the Way Down

What a horrible thing it is to look into your mother’s eyes and see her love for you vanish. I’m sorry you had to raise a kid that you didn’t want. I love you.

A week before Christmas 🎄🎅 All bookstagrammers: happily post Christmas books and “My Year in Books” pictures📚 🥳 Me: nervously google “How to hygge“ 😵‍💫 because I can’t get the peace of mind I crave… Meanwhile, “Little Women”: 😒 🤦‍♀️ Yeah…actually, all I needed was in the book and the girls did know how to hygge before it was popular 😺 I have already celebrated two happy Christmases with them and, though I know it’s going to be sad soon, those little women did give me that coveted peace of mind ☺️ #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #instabooks #whattoread #whattoreadnext #christmasbooks #hygge #howtohygge #classicbooks #littlewomen #louisamayalcott #americanliterature #americanauthor #comingofagebooks #megjobethamy (at Tallinn, Estonia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXvmuCUAAyu/?utm_medium=tumblr

Are you team graphic novel supremacy or naw?😂 I adore graphic novels! They are pretty much adult picture books 📖 which is everything I want when I’m in need of a ✨serotonin boost✨ Graphic novels are my favorite way to cure a reading slump or get over a reading hangover and this series is one of my faves! 💜 Heartstopper by Alice Oseman is such a feel good wholesome coming of age graphic novel 🤗The illustrations are so fun to look through and the art style is so unique! I read both the second and third volume in less than 2 hours! Let me known of your favorite graphic novels, especially recs by people of color! #bookstagram # graphicnovels #heartstopper #blackboostagrammer #blackbookstagram #romancebooks #yabooks #comingofagebooks #yaromancebooks https://www.instagram.com/p/COlXYASh0v6/?igshid=d0zyp45cv637

I am so glad I read #thestarsbeneathourfeet by #davidbarclaymoore. What a well written story of a boy struggling with the loss of his brother, trying to keep up with school and his friends, and wondering if he should follow in his brother’s footsteps and join a gang. Recruiters are hounding him and his friends as they come of age. What will they do? Read the story and find out. Mr. Moore crafted a story that keeps you turning the page and leaves you with much to think about when it’s done. #readthisbook #bookstagram #bookgeek #comingofagebook #bookworm #booknerd #bookish #readersofinstagram #bibliophile #reading #bookaddict #read #bookaholic #books #bibliotherapy #audiobooks #listeninglibrary #middlegradebooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CaNxszmrZda/?utm_medium=tumblr

That was the thing about being on the inside: the world was just going on, even when it seemed like time for you had stopped for good. I was bored. Sad. Lonely. It was only a matter of time before I cracked.

The Truth About Forever, Sarah Dessen

I’ve been literally alone for over two years and it’s not going great.

I’m currently trying to prolong “Mariana” - my comfort read - before I join other book lovers for something Christmasy. “Mariana” is a simple yet such an engaging story of Mary, a girl growing into a woman in the 1930s in London, whose main difference from other heroines of historical fiction is the fact that you can relate to her. She makes mistakes, chooses the wrong paths, searches for love, and you can’t help feeling that you are reading not a work of fiction but a diary of a real woman. #bookstagram #booklover #whatimreadingnow #whattoreadnext #whattoread #comfortread #historicalfictionbooks #classics #classicliterature #britishliterature #historicalfiction #modernclassics #romancebooks #comingofagebook #youngadultbook #mariana #monicadickens (at Tallinn, Estonia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIA3u8mgRdB/?igshid=1a36dfarvihha

@awastudiosofficial / @upshotstudiosofficial se interesa en un público joven adulto, por eso va a lanzar dos series de cómics: . Imagen 1: E-Ratic está escrito y dibujado por Kaare Andrews, con colores de @leeloughridge. Está protagonizada por un jóven de 15 años al que de repente se le otorgan poderes increíbles que solo puede usar durante diez minutos. . Imagen 2: Byte-Sized, adecuado para lectores de grado medio y mayores, está escrito por @cullenbunn , con arte de #nelsonblake y colores de @snakebitecortez . El lanzamiento del primer número está programado para Navidad, ya que se trata de robots creados en un laboratorio militar, que escapan y se estrellan en la casa de una familia promedio en Nochebuena. .
