Introducing my stack of #fantasy & #sciencefiction books by black authors for the #OnceYouGoBlackOut challenge hosted by @reggiereads, @book_girl_magic, @absorbedinpages, @exlibrislls, @never_withouta_book, @lowelowexxoo & @thestackspod on bookstagram 😉 •
It should be pretty obvious that fantasy and science fiction are my JAM!! To be honest this just happens to be my physical stack of books .... you should see my Kindle 😜 •
The reason why this stack is so enormous has less to do with preference and a lot more to do with the fact that most of these titles are not and probably will never be available at my local library. While the Rotterdam library carries a vast amount of English titles in various genres, Afrofuturism has yet to become a thing😒 ... as long as I can create my own library I guess it’s no biggie •

❝To those who survived the crossing, and who carried their Black gods with them❞
In an alternate New Orleans caught in the tangle of the American Civil War, the wall-scaling girl named Creeper yearns to escape the streets for the air—by earning a spot on-board the airship Midnight Robber. Creeper plans to earn Captain Ann-Marie’s trust with information she discovers about a Haitian scientist and a mysterious weapon he calls “The Black God’s Drums.” But Creeper also has a secret: Oya, the African orisha of the wind and storms, speaks inside her head, and may have her own ulterior motivations… •
First of all, there is not one but two bad ass black females that might or might not save the day in this novella. While this was enough for me, I can imagine that you might need to know that Orishas make an appearance and that there are Nuns, who behave more like Obeah women instead of women who know all about the Holy Bible, before you pick this one up •
In case you need a little more convincing, you’ll find the link to my full review in the bio 😉. For me this was a solid ☆☆☆☆ •

I can definitely recommend “Becoming by Michelle Obama” and I am still in the midst of reading ”Own Your Glow by Latham Thomas”. I have not had the pleasure of reading my other books yet and guess I am fully booked for 2019. •
