Black History Month: Books By Black Authors

February is Black History Month so let’s celebrate some amazing Black authors!

Here are a few books that I have read over the past few years and books that are on my TBR list:

I read this cozy romance last year called Deja Brew by. Celestine Martin and really enjoyed it! It’s part of a series so I’m hoping to read the other two.


Highly Suspicious and Unfairly Cute by. Talia Hibbert

Definitely want to read more from this author!


I Was Told There Would Be Romance by. Marie Arnold – this cover looks so cute! This one is on my TBR list.


A Legend in the Baking by. Jamie Wesley – this one looks cute! And it’s a foodie book, which I haven’t read much this past year. So I need to get back on it – this one is on my TBR.


Sleep Like Death by. Kalynn Bayron is on my TBR list. I’ve read three other books from this author:


One of my most anticipated reads this year is Oathbound by. Tracy Deonn! I’ve read the other two books in the series as well:

Bloodmarked by. Tracy Deonn (The Legendborn Cycle, #2)

Legendborn by. Tracy Deonn (The Legendborn Cycle, #1)


The Poisons We Drink by. Bethany Baptiste was a book I read last year and I thought the magic system was really cool!


The Davenports by. Krystal Marquis


The Blackwoods by. Brandy Colbert – this was a multigenerational story and it was like a soap opera, loved the drama.


Curvy Girl Summer by. Danielle Allen – this one is on my TBR!


The Fifth Season by. N.K. Jemisin has been on my TBR for awhile now. I’ve heard only good things about this author and series!


One of my favorite authors is Tiffany D. Jackson and I’m waiting patiently for another book from her! These are the books I’ve read from her:

Monday’s Not Coming by. Tiffany D. Jackson

Grown by. Tiffany D. Jackson

White Smoke by. Tiffany D. Jackson

The Weight of Blood by. Tiffany D. Jackson
