Summer Reading List 📚 Black Women Only | Black BookTube IS Reading Tag

Summer Reading List 📚 Black Women Only Welcome to my channel! I’m Jaleesa and I am joining 70 other creators to share our love of reading this summer with the Black BookTube IS Reading tag. As a reader, my mission is to celebrate Black Authors and Black stories. Today I’m sharing my Summer Reading List featuring 10 books by Black women authors—and they are all physicals because this summer I’m outside, reading, and building my library intentionally this summer! This list blends Black literary fiction, nonfiction, classics, and romance, with a mix of gems from backlists and upcoming releases I’m excited to get into. ✨ Books Mentioned: Iola Leroy by Frances Ellen Watkins Harper Black in Blues by Imani Perry Beloved by Toni Morrison The Love Songs of W.E.B.
