As we enter the ultimate quarter of 2022, it’s vital to reflect on the months which have passed. Fall also symbolizes a time of transition from one season to a different, and probably the greatest ways to reset mentally is to sit down back, chill out, and wander away in a extremely good book or two.
There are several great reads being released in the approaching months. Charles Johnson is releasing All Your Racial Problems Will Soon End: The Cartoons of Charles Johnson a gaggle of subversive gag comics about Black life in America, while Award-winning writer Kennedy Ryan writes a novel about hope and healing. From adrienne maree brown’s collection of poetry and short stories, to Wanda M. Morris’ compelling story in regards to the lives of two sisters within the aftermath of a criminal offense committed in Jim Crow Mississippi, there may be a book on the market for wherever your interests lie.
