Overview

Join The Book Lovhers Club in celebrating and uplifting Black sapphic stories. This challenge dares you to read 10 Black sapphic books before the end of the year.

Whether you're reading along with me via my podcast, The Book Lovhers Club, or stacking your TBR with some more sapphic reads, this challenge is a chance for you to diversify your bookshelf, support indie authors, and engage in a reading community that celebrates Black queer love on and off the page. 

Are you up for my 10 before the end challenge? Let's read together!
