We travel and learn about different places and individuals while reading a book. Many books have been written in different genres, such as fiction, history, mystery, fantasy, thriller, and so on. Whatever genre is your favourite, it would always take you on a journey of reality and fiction. As we celebrate World Book Day I would like to highlight that many great books are written by females and won prizes in literature.
As I child, my parents read bedtime stories to me. Since then, I have learned a lot from books and continue to do so it today. It’s not easy for me to say which is my favourite book, since I have several; however, I enjoy those that narrate stories related to my stories.
Two years ago, I published a list of books written by black females that you should read. Dig into the list!
Currently, I am reading bell hooks’ All About Love, which I highly recommend. One of my favourite quotes from this book is:
Lies may make people feel better, but they do not help them to know love.

If you are looking for a book to read and don’t have any idea, I suggest visiting communities such as Goodreads and Oprah’s Book Club.
