Abi Daré, The Girl with the Louding Voice

Dear Ones! Please sit down with your favorite warm beverage and enjoy this conversation with the extraordinary @abidare_author about her unforgettable debut novel THE GIRL WITH THE LOUDING VOICE — one of the most captivatingly narrated stories I have ever read. Thank you, Abi, for bringing the character of Adunni to life — this vivid, whip-smart, ambitious young Nigerian girl who longs to be educated, so that she can possess “a louding voice”. I loved this conversation — as much about the spirituality and mysticism of writing as the craft. Absolutely beautiful.

Iyanla Vanzant, PEACE FROM BROKEN PIECES

Please join me tomorrow for a very special edition of the Onward Book Club, with my special guest, the great and powerful Iyanla Vanzant! Holy. Moly. This woman! This epic, beautiful woman! We will be discussing her classic 2010 #1 New York Times bestselling memoir PEACE FROM BROKEN PIECES — a story of grief, trauma, courage resilience, and the self-creation of a wise and deeply spiritual woman. I love and respect this book. I love and respect @iyanlavanzant. I have a lot of questions of my own for Iyanla about how we can possibly recover our spirits after the blow of losing the most important person in our lives (an experience I have painful familiarity with) or how to survive any of the “unsurvivable” losses that shake the foundations of being. We will also talk about intergenerational trauma, racism, relationships, and God. On a more personal note, I can’t wait to reconnect with someone whom I adore with all my heart, whose company has always made me feel like I live in a world of infinite possibility, where the opportunities for transformation are both endless and surprising. Please join us for this very special conversation — tomorrow (Thursday June 3) at 2pm EST on my Instagram live. See you there BELOVEDS! ??

Tayari Jones, AN AMERICAN MARRIAGE

Tayari Jones is one of those “overnight success stories” who has actually been writing beautiful and thoughtful books for years. But it was her fourth novel, AN AMERICAN MARRIAGE, that made her into a bestseller and a cultural phenomenon. This heartbreaking, suspenseful, and intricately crafted book tells the story of a young, ambitious Black couple in Atlanta whose marriage is exploded by the arrest and incarceration of the husband for a crime he did not commit. What follows is a story of loyalty, betrayal, devastation, impossible moral dilemmas and stubborn regeneration. This is an unforgettable tale by a writer at the top of her game.

Lauren Wilkinson, AMERICAN SPY

I am honored and delighted to announce that next selection in the Onward Book Club is AMERICAN SPY, by Lauren Wilkinson. (@thrillkinson).

This is a tight, suspenseful, sexual, intelligent, and incredibly well-written spy story — which also happens to be about race, gender, and politics.

It’s brilliant and I can’t wait for everybody to read it!
