I have always loved to read...
But I never had anyone who wanted to read with me. Maybe that’s because reading can seem dorky, or because every book club I’ve ever seen lacks color (read: is very white).
So I started Thots About Books. I wanted to read with my homegirls and talk about books in the same way that we talk about everything else. So I put together my own list of books written by authors I found more relatable, who were telling stories that I could see myself in that the world deserves to hear.
Thots About Books is about making reading accessible, dope, and, fun. It was created to break the stereotype of what readers look like. It’ s for the shy girls, and the fly girls but mostly it’s for my homegirls.
