✨BOOK REVEAL ✨ Hi friends :) we’re so glad to see that so many of you have signed up for The People’s Book Club 😚. It’s truly warmed our hearts! If you’ve already signed up to join, be checking your inboxes for more info about what’s next. Our first selection is this delicious collection of short stories by Toni Cade Bambara, called Gorilla, My Love. It’s short and sweet, but rich with … sharp wit, vivid storytelling, and the unflinching voice of Black girlhood and community. Each story brims with humor, heart, and the quiet (and not-so-quiet) rebellions of everyday life. We can’t wait to dive into these pages with you! If you’re grabbing a copy, we encourage you to support your local bookstores, like our fave Café Noir (@901cafenoir )! 💗📚✨ Stay tuned for more details on our first meeting, and let us know in the comments—have you read Gorilla, My Love before? What are you most excited about?
