I'm curious #BlackSky how many of y'all are actually *about* reading Black authors? 🤔 Like, the whole gambit. Buy the book. Read the book. Tell someone about the book. Cause I run @melaninlibrary.com and I want to make sure I'm talking to the right people.

Oh my gosh. This is also free on Amazon AU - which is RARE!

This is me, casually dropping a Black book on your TL. It's Black. It's indie. It's free today. I've heard it's funny. And it's got a vampire, a witch, and a siren at an HBCU ✌🏾 melaninlibrary.com/books/8325 #BlackBookSky #BookSky

Cool.

Um hey friends of the internet if you're BIPOC and/or Queer and/or of a marginalized gender and you are publishing a new book in 2025 can you tell me about your project? I'm building my reading list for the new year and half the things I'm seeing are not made by us as far as I can tell #authors

Now I know #BlackBookSky is a thing? Prepared to be sick of me 😏

Allow me to introduce or reintroduce if it fits, I’m Kwana Jackson aka K.M. Jackson a hybrid author who writes stories where the Black woman always wins. Here’s hoping the view is better over here. 🤞🏾 kmjackson.com #addtoblacksky #blackbooksky #booksky #blacksky #blackwriters #bvm #romancelandia
