Raised by a fierce aunt determined to give her a stable home in the wake of her mother’s death, Vernice leaves Honeysuckle at eighteen for Spelman College, where she joins a sisterhood of powerfully connected Black women and discovers a world of affluence, manners, aspiration, and inequality. Annie, abandoned by her mother as a child and fixated on the idea of finding her and filling the bottomless hole left by her absence, sets off on a journey that will take her into a world of peril and adversity, as well as love and adventure, culminating in a battle for her life. A novel about mothers and daughters, friendship and sisterhood, and the complexities of being a woman in the American South, Kin is an exuberant, emotionally rich, unforgettable work from one of the brightest and most irresistible voices in contemporary fiction. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/if-i-ruled-the-world monthly 0.5 2026-04-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/73af50ca-31a7-4e75-af81-69bd09edb109/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+-+2026-02-11T125550.625.png The WRS Library - If I Ruled the Ruled World by Amy DuBois Barnett - February / March 2026 Book Selection It's 1999, and Nikki Rose is the only Black editor on the staff of a prestigious fashion magazine she once thought would be her ticket to becoming a respected editor in chief. But after being told one too many times by her boss that “Black girls don’t sell magazines,” she quits to take over Sugar, a struggling hip hop music and lifestyle magazine with untapped potential. Thrown into an entirely new world of wealth, decadence, and debauchery, Nikki has just six months to save Sugar―and her own dreams. As she pulls all-nighters at the office and parties with New York City’s most influential bad boys, Nikki must prove she has what it takes to lead. But her most dangerous challenge is evading Alonzo Griffin, her very married, very powerful ex-lover and former boss, who is determined to destroy both her and Sugar. Along the way, Nikki leans on a circle of loyal friends and navigates unexpected romances that force her to reckon with what―and who―she truly wants. If I Ruled the World is a smart, utterly immersive journey through one of the most dynamic eras in pop culture history―a story of ambition, friendship, love, and finding your own voice. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/i-medusa-ayana-gray monthly 0.5 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/a6dceb6f-c21d-4923-a631-9e48376b5bdd/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+-+2026-02-11T125810.226.png The WRS Library - I, Medusa by Ayana Gray - January 2026 Book Selection Meddy has spent her whole life as a footnote in someone else’s story. Out of place next to her beautiful, immortal sisters and her parents—both gods, albeit minor ones—she dreams of leaving her family’s island for a life of adventure. So when she catches the eye of the goddess Athena, who invites her to train as an esteemed priestess in her temple, Meddy leaps at the chance to see the world beyond her home. In the colorful market streets of Athens and the clandestine chambers of the temple, Meddy flourishes in her role as Athena’s favored acolyte, getting her first tastes of purpose and power. But when she is noticed by another Olympian, Poseidon, the course of Meddy’s promising future is suddenly and irrevocably altered. When her locs are transformed into snakes as punishment for a crime she did not commit, Medusa must embrace a new identity—not as a victim, but as a vigilante—and with it, the chance to write her own story as mortal, martyr, and myth. Exploding with rage, heartbreak, and love, I, Medusa portrays a young woman caught in the crosscurrents between her heart’s deepest desires and the cruel, careless games the Olympian gods play. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/bitter-honey-lola-akinmade monthly 0.5 2025-12-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/1f6f4b24-ef9c-4a42-bc63-b30bf95be6c6/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+-+2025-11-04T170331.969.png The WRS Library - Bitter Honey by Lolá Ákínmádé Åkerström - November/ December 2025 Book Selection 1978: A scholarship draws Nancy from Gambia’s warmth into Stockholm’s frigid winter.

Citchens - September 2025 Book Selection Reverend Sabre Winfrey, Jr., shepherd of the Seven Seals Missionary Baptist Church, believes in God, his own privilege, and enterprise. He owns the barbershop and the radio station, and generally keeps an iron hand on every aspect of society in Dominion, Mississippi. He and his wife, Priscilla, have five boys; the youngest, Emanuel, is called Wonderboy―no one sings prettier, runs as fast, or turns as many heads. But Wonderboy, his father, and all the structures in place that keep them on top are not as righteous as they seem to be. And when Wonderboy is caught off guard by an encounter with a stranger, he finds himself confronted by questions he’d never imagined. His response sends shock waves through the entire community. Priscilla and Diamond, two women who love these men, bear witness to their charms and bear the brunt of their choices. Through their eyes and their stories, Dominion offers an intricate, intimate view of how secrets control us, how shame stifles us, how silence implicates us, and how even love plays a role in the everyday violence and casual sins of the powerful. A brilliantly crafted Black Southern family drama told with the captivating force, humor, and tenderness carried in the hearts of these women, Addie E. Citchens’s Dominion wrestles with the many brutal, sinister ways in which we are shaped by fear and patriarchy, and studies how we might yet choose to break free. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/the-best-man-jayne-allen-a22mh monthly 0.5 2025-09-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/e81d281a-cd0d-47b2-844c-b13db0a67db5/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+-+2025-09-09T003238.971.png The WRS Library - Love You To Death by Christina Dotson - August 2025 Book Selection As the only Black women at an antebellum-themed wedding, Kayla and Zorie should’ve known this heist was doomed from the start. They should never have come, but when their financial situation became dire, they agreed to hit one last wedding. Jaded and cynical Kayla has spent the last decade trying to fix her life since an angsty teen prank led to her arrest. Now, with her housekeeping job at a subpar hotel and her disappointing, Cinderella-esque relationship with her dad and obnoxious stepsister, she hates the life she’s built. Her only bright spots are her best friend, Zorie, and their favorite weekend pastime of crashing weddings to steal the money and pawn the gifts. But what started as a lark has evolved into a greedy obsession, making each wedding haul riskier than the last. While trying to avoid the angry bride and groom, Kayla and Zorie’s getaway takes a gruesome turn and suddenly the “Wedding Crasher Killers” are national news. The best friends are forced to hit the road to dodge the authorities, but their escape plan leaves behind a bloody trail of destruction from Georgia all the way to the bayou. As past grudges resurface, Kayla realizes that the best friend she thought she knew is more dangerous than she could ever have realized. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/the-best-man-jayne-allen monthly 0.5 2025-08-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/ec694952-7bdf-4245-b77f-8b134ea0888a/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+%2899%29.png The WRS Library - The Best Man : Unfinished Business by Malcolm D. Lee &amp; Jayne Allen - July 2025 Book Selection In the wake of her grandmother's passing, Sydney Singleton finds a hidden photograph of a little girl who looks more like Sydney than her own sister or mother. She soon discovers the mystery girl in the photograph is her aunt, Carol, who was one of six North Carolina Black girls to go missing in the 1960s. For the last several decades, not a soul has talked about Carol or what really happened to her. But now, with her grandmother gone and Sydney looking to start a family of her own, she is determined to unravel the truth behind her long-lost aunt’s disappearance, and the sinister silence that surrounds her. Unfortunately, this is familiar territory for Sydney: Years earlier, while she worked the crime beat as a journalist, her obsession with the case of another missing girl led to a psychotic break.

Berry - June 2025 Book Selection In the wake of her grandmother's passing, Sydney Singleton finds a hidden photograph of a little girl who looks more like Sydney than her own sister or mother. She soon discovers the mystery girl in the photograph is her aunt, Carol, who was one of six North Carolina Black girls to go missing in the 1960s. For the last several decades, not a soul has talked about Carol or what really happened to her. But now, with her grandmother gone and Sydney looking to start a family of her own, she is determined to unravel the truth behind her long-lost aunt’s disappearance, and the sinister silence that surrounds her. Unfortunately, this is familiar territory for Sydney: Years earlier, while she worked the crime beat as a journalist, her obsession with the case of another missing girl led to a psychotic break. And now, in the suffocating grip of fertility treatments and a marriage that's beginning to crumble, Sydney’s relentless pursuit for answers might just lead her down the same path of self-destruction.

McFadden - April 2025 Book Selection On her second birthday in 1967, Bernice McFadden died in a car crash near Detroit, only to be resuscitated after her mother pulled her from the flaming wreckage. Firstborn Girls traces her remarkable life from that moment up to the publication of her first novel, Sugar. Growing up in 1980s Brooklyn, Bernice finds solace in books, summer trips to Barbados, and boarding school to escape her alcoholic father. Discovering the works of Alice Walker and Toni Morrison, she finally sees herself and her loved ones reflected in their stories of “messy, beautiful, joyful Black people.” Interwoven with Bernice's personal journey is her family's history, beginning with her four-times enslaved great-grandmother Louisa Vicey Wilson in 1822 Hancock County, Georgia. Her descendants survived Reconstruction and Jim Crow, joined the Great Migration, and mourned Dr. King’s assassination during the Civil Rights Movement. These women's wisdom, secrets, and fierce love are passed down like Louisa's handmade quilt. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/love-at-second-sight-tg2w9-6wd6j monthly 0.5 2025-04-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/daf619fc-dbeb-476e-a3fd-6ea0d2b27da1/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+%2878%29.png The WRS Library - Good Dirt by Charmaine Wilkerson - February / March 2025 Book Selection When ten-year-old Ebby Freeman heard the gunshot, time stopped. And when she saw her brother, Baz, lying on the floor surrounded by the shattered pieces of a centuries-old jar, life as Ebby knew it shattered as well. The crime was never solved—and because the Freemans were one of the only Black families in a particularly well-to-do enclave of New England—the case has had an enduring, voyeuristic pull for the public. The last thing the Freemans want is another media frenzy splashing their family across the papers, but when Ebby's high profile romance falls apart without any explanation, that's exactly what they get. So Ebby flees to France, only for her past to follow her there. And as she tries to process what's happened, she begins to think about the other loss her family suffered on that day eighteen years ago—the stoneware jar that had been in their family for generations, brought North by an enslaved ancestor. But little does she know that the handcrafted piece of pottery held more than just her family's history—it might also hold the key to unlocking her own future. In this sweeping, evocative novel, Charmaine Wilkerson brings to life a multi-generational epic that examines how the past informs our present. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/love-at-second-sight-tg2w9 monthly 0.5 2025-02-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/81c3dc86-6f48-4a58-8b18-b047d55fba5e/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+%2865%29.png The WRS Library - Master of Me - Keke Palmer - January 2025 Book Selection Keke Palmer thought she knew who she was.

Following up with three chart-topping albums that made unrivaled waves in the world of hip-hop and music, as well as trailblazing moments in TV/film and fashion, Eve now looks back on her groundbreaking career. West Philadelphia was not for the faint of heart—Eve knows that better than anyone. However, she navigated those Philly streets (and later the rest of the world) seamlessly, though it was not without strength and resilience. She incorporates that unbridled ambition into every bar that she writes and every stage/set that she stands on.

Theo Harper and his pregnant wife, Darla, head upstate to their summer cottage to wait out the lockdown. Not everyone in their upscale Park Slope building has this privilege: not Xavier, the teenager in the Cardi B T-shirt, nor Darla’s best friend, Ruby, and her partner, Katsumi, who stay behind to save their Michelin-starred restaurant. During an upstate hike on the aptly named Devil’s Path, Theo divulges a long-held secret—and when Darla disappears after the ensuing argument, he finds himself the prime suspect. As Darla’s and Theo’s families and friends come together to search for her, with Ruby and Katsumi stepping in to broker peace, past and present collide with startling consequences. Set against the pulse of an ever-changing city, The Rich People Have Gone Away connects the lives of ordinary New Yorkers to tell a powerful story of hope, love, and inequity in our times—while reminding us that no one leaves the past behind completely. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/the-mayor-of-maxwell-street-avery-cunnigham monthly 0.5 2024-09-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/b6b2ad86-56cc-4b4f-bdaf-27fab56cff18/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+%2836%29.png The WRS Library - The Mayor of Maxwell Street by Avery Cunningham - August 2024 Book Selection Nelly Sawyer is the daughter of the “wealthiest Negro in America,” whose affluence catapulted his family to the heights of Black society. After the unexpected death of her only brother, Nelly becomes the premier debutante overnight. But Nelly has aspirations beyond society influence and marriage. For the past year, she has worked undercover as an investigative journalist, sharing the achievements and tribulations of everyday Black people living in the shadow of Jim Crow. Her latest assignment thrusts her into the den of a dangerous vice lord: the so-called Mayor of Maxwell Street. Born in rural Alabama to a murdered biracial couple, Jay Shorey knows firsthand what it means to be denied a chance at the American dream. When a tragic turn of fate gave Jay a rare path out, he took it without question. He washed up on Chicago’s storied shores and forged his own way to the top of the city’s underworld, running Chicago's swankiest speakeasy, where the rich and famous rub elbows with gangsters and politicians alike. When Nelly’s and Jay’s paths cross, she recruits him to help expose the Mayor and bring about lasting change in a corrupt city. But Jay also introduces a whole new world to Nelly, one where her horizons can extend beyond the confines of her ivory tower. Trapped between the monolith of Jim Crow, the inflexible world of the Black upper class, and the violence of Prohibition-era Chicago, Jay and Nelly work together and stoke the flames of a love worth fighting for. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/the-wife-before-shanora-williams monthly 0.5 2024-08-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/7827441e-48cc-4b3e-8f1a-8c6eb4a5413d/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+%2828%29.png The WRS Library - The Wife Before by Shanora Williams - July 2024 Book Selection Samira Wilder has never had it easy, and when her latest lousy job goes south, things only promise to get harder. Until she unexpectedly meets a man who will change her life forever. Renowned pro golfer Roland Graham is wealthy, handsome, and caring, and Samira is dazzled. Best of all, he seems to understand her better than anyone ever has. And though their relationship moves a bit fast, when Roland proposes, Samira accepts. She even agrees to relocate to his secluded Colorado mansion. After all, there’s nothing to keep her in Miami, and the mansion clearly makes him happy. Soon, they are married amid a media firestorm, and Samira can't wait to make a fresh start—as the second Mrs. Graham . . . Samira settles into the mansion, blissfully happy—until she discovers long-hidden journals belonging to Roland’s late wife, Melanie, who died in a tragic accident. With each dusty page, Samira comes to realize that perhaps it was no accident at all—that perhaps her perfect husband is not as perfect as she thought. Even as her trust in Roland begins to dwindle and a shadow falls over her marriage and she begins to fear for her own life, Samira is determined to uncover the truth of Melanie’s troubled last days.

Breanna’s new boyfriend, Ty, took care of everything—the train tickets, the dinner reservations, the rented four-story luxury rowhouse in Jersey City with a beautiful view of the Manhattan skyline. But when Bree comes downstairs their final morning, she’s shocked. There’s a stranger laying dead in the foyer, and Ty is nowhere to be found. A Black woman alone in a new city, Bree is stranded and out of her depth—especially when it becomes clear the dead woman is none other than Janelle Beckett, the missing woman the entire Internet has become obsessed with. There’s only one person Bree can turn to: her ex-best friend, a lawyer with whom she shares a very complicated past. As the police and a social media mob close in, all looking for #JusticeForJanelle, Bree realizes that the only way she can help Ty—or herself—is to figure out what really happened that last night. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/neighbors-diane-oliver monthly 0.5 2024-06-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/201941ab-a9c3-469d-9c11-163a7a96e371/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+%2826%29.jpg The WRS Library - Neighbors and Other Stories by Diane Oliver - May 2024 Book Selection A remarkable talent far ahead of her time, Diane Oliver died in 1966 at the age of 22, leaving behind these crisply told and often chilling tales that explore race and racism in 1950s and 60s America. In this first and only collection by a masterful storyteller finally taking her rightful place in the canon, Oliver's insightful stories reverberate into the present day. There's the nightmarish "The Closet on the Top Floor" in which Winifred, the first Black student at her newly integrated college, starts to physically disappear; "Mint Juleps not Served Here" where a couple living deep in a forest with their son go to bloody lengths to protect him; "Spiders Cry without Tears," in which a couple, Meg and Walt, are confronted by prejudices and strains of interracial and extramarital love; and the high tension titular story that follows a nervous older sister the night before her little brother is set to desegregate his school. These are incisive and intimate portraits of African American families in everyday moments of anxiety and crisis that look at how they use agency to navigate their predicaments. As much a social and historical document as it is a taut, engrossing collection, Neighbors is an exceptional literary feat from a crucial once-lost figure of letters. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/watch-where-they-hide-tamron-hall monthly 0.5 2024-05-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/1712235830423-X70LW1EORO1RSCP1KGUY/Copy+of+Copy+of+WRS+Book+Announcement+%2820%29.png The WRS Library - Watch Where They Hide by Tamron Hall - April 2024 Book Selection After dropping her child off at preschool, Marla Hancock, a stay-at-home mother, disappears. She had recently left her verbally abusive husband in rural Indiana and moved in with her sister, Shelly, who simply can’t believe that her sister would ever willingly vanish without her children. But with limited support from the town’s police department or media resources, Shelly fears that Marla’s disappearance won’t get the attention it deserves, or worse, will go unsolved. So, several weeks after filing a missing person’s report, she reaches out to TV journalist Jordan Manning for help. After her investigative and reporting skills helped solve multiple murders, Jordan Manning’s career in the newsroom is on the rise. She has gained a reputation as more than your typical news reporter: a “fixer” with a vigilante edge, dogged and undeterred to seek the truth. But even with this new status, Jordan still feels pressure to prove herself as a young Black professional. When Shelly reaches out, she feels compelled to do all she can to find Marla. Jordan’s search twists and turns in ways she could never have imagined, illuminating scandals and secrets that place her own life in grave danger. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/acts-of-forgiveness-maura-cheeks monthly 0.5 2024-04-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/1172dcc6-f8dd-4636-b7ec-d5ad812e9be9/9780593598290.jpg The WRS Library - Acts of Forgiveness by Maura Cheeks - March 2024 Book Selection Every American waits with bated breath to see whether or not the country's first female president will pass the Forgiveness Act. The bill would allow Black families to claim up to $175,000 if they can prove they are the descendants of slaves, and for ambitious single mother Willie Revel the bill could be a long-awaited form of redemption. A decade ago, Willie gave up her burgeoning journalism career to help run her father's struggling construction company in Philadelphia and she has reluctantly put family first, without being able to forget who she might have become. Now she's back living with her parents and her young daughter while trying to keep her family from going into bankruptcy. Could the Forgiveness Act uncover her forgotten roots while also helping save their beloved home and her father's life's work? In order to qualify, she must first prove that the Revels are descended from slaves, but the rest of the family isn't as eager to dig up the past. Her mother is adopted, her father doesn't trust the government and believes working with a morally corrupt employer is the better way to save their business, and her daughter is just trying to make it through the fifth grade at her elite private school without attracting unwanted attention. It's up to Willie to verify their ancestry and save her family--but as she delves into their history, Willie begins to learn just how complicated family and forgiveness can be. With powerful insight and moving prose, Acts of Forgiveness asks how history shapes who we become and considers the weight of success when it is achieved despite incredible odds--and ultimately what leaving behind a legacy truly means. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/come-and-get-it-by-kiley-reid monthly 0.5 2024-03-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/5de4b8fc-95e4-4d03-9ffe-f5bc7b9eafb4/WRS+%281%29.png The WRS Library - Come &amp; Get It by Kiley Reid - February 2024 Book Selection It's 2017 at the University of Arkansas.

Best friend Alexis can't manage to strike the right balance in her "refurbished" marriage with Rob, and Laila's gone from being a consistent ride-or-die to a newly minted entrepreneur trying to raise capital for her growing business. And when Marc presents her with an ultimatum about their relationship, coupled with an extended "visit" from his mother, Tabby is forced to take stock of her life and make a new plan for the future. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/the-unsettled-by-ayana-mathis-becjz-t6zaw-ndfjm-ca9lm-ntwx9 monthly 0.5 2024-02-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/987930a8-72ff-40dd-a87a-9a8ce977005f/download-39.jpg The WRS Library - Ride or Die: A Feminist Manifesto for the Well-Being of Black Women by Shanita Hubbard - March 2023 Book Selection A "ride-or-die chick" is a woman who holds down her family and community. She's your girl that you can call up in the middle of the night to bail you out of jail, and you know she'll show up and won't ask any questions. Her ride-or-die trope becomes a problem when she does it indiscriminately. She does anything for her family, friends, and significant other, even at the cost of her own well-being. "No" is not in her vocabulary. Her self-worth is connected to how much labor she can provide for others. She goes above and beyond for everyone in every aspect of her life--work, family, church, even if it's not reciprocated, and doesn't require it to be because she's a "strong Black woman" and everyone's favorite ride-or-die chick. To her, love should be earned, and there's no limit to what she'll do for it. In this book, author, adjunct professor of sociology, and former therapist Shanita Hubbard disrupts the ride-or-die complex and argues that this way of life has left Black women exhausted, overworked, overlooked, and feeling depleted. She suggests that Black women are susceptible to this mentality because it's normalized in our culture. It rings loud in your favorite hip-hop songs, and it even shows up in the most important relationship you will ever have--the one with yourself. https://www.wellreadsistas.com/the-wrs-library-books/the-unsettled-by-ayana-mathis-becjz-t6zaw-ndfjm-ca9lm-ntwx9-fknrb monthly 0.5 2024-02-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65a55e88c25eca37035b0853/429cd900-a9fc-414a-b04a-565da2d2c24a/9780063116993.jpg The WRS Library - The Women Could Fly by Megan Giddings - January 2023 Book Selection Reminiscent of the works of Margaret Atwood, Shirley Jackson, and Octavia Butler, a biting social commentary from the acclaimed author of Lakewood that speaks to our times—a piercing dystopian novel about the unbreakable bond between a young woman and her mysterious mother, set in a world in which witches are real and single women are closely monitored.
