About the Folio
When I think about the books that have shaped me, I always come back to the ones that center women that look like and love like me. These books tell the stories of women who love women and give them the opportunity to take up space on the page. This is rarer than it should be, and I hope that this is a starting point for you to read more Black books that center queer women.Book selections
