February Reading - Home stretch!

My goal was 28 black authors in 28 days. I had to choose a few shorter books to make it (3 books to go!), but I will read the other books I had on my TBR next month for Women's History Month!

Hey, when y’all were talking about walking away from these major corporations & investing our money into Black small business, I hope you meant publishing too. As a Black publisher, I could use that energy. Help me build my business with just $5 or $12 a month. πŸ‘‡πŸΎ

Book cover art for Name Her Holy by Aubrey Ennis. The cover has two women standing against a starry twilight background with a pale sun. At the forefront Kye stands facing forward, one hand held up with a cold flame and billowing black smoke. She is wearing dark purple robes with a high color and gold accents. She has dark wavy brown hair that comes to her chin, tan skin covered in light scars, and pale gray eyes. Behind her Jude stands in profile, a head taller than Kye. She is in leather armor stamped with meadow floral designs, holding a golden sword etched with light oak leaves. Jude is white, has long auburn hair in a braid with an undercut at the sides. She has a long scar across her nose and freckles on her cheeks. The sun rises behind her. A border of flowers and stars creates an arch above them with a deep purple background. Tropes listed around the cover are: sapphic space fantasy, get in loser we’re going to fight god, trans sword lesbian, chronically ill chosen one, literal sun/moon sword/sheild lesbians, super slooow burn
