Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi

Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi I’ve read a lot of YA fantasy. A lot. So much so that there are times when they all jumble together into one epic tale that I can’t quite distinguish from one […]

  • If there’s one thing that Haitian people love, it’s our flag. 🇭🇹 So much so that you’d think May 18 is our Independence Day (it’s not). 😂 Haitian Flag Day is a celebration of culture and pride. If you know, you know.✊🏾
  • The Little Haiti Book Festival was an amazing time! It was my first time attending and I’m so glad I did. Live music, literary panels, writing workshops, meeting Edwidge Danticat!, and more—head to the link in our bio and click "Day in the Life" for deets. #haitianheritagemonth #haitianheritage
  • In just a little over a week, we’ll be lip syncing for our lives! 🎤 Okay, fine. We won’t be on Ru Paul’s Drag Race, but we are headed to Austin, Texas for @txla_1902’s annual conference. We’re mentally prepared to embarrass ourselves to a room full of librarians. There will be footage. 😂⠀
  • Anxiety is the worst. 😩 It's one part dark cellar, one part airless room, and another part bottomless pit with no end in sight. Today we're sharing a few tips to help you get out of your head and fight back. Click the link in our bio and pick “Wellness Posts”.
  • You won’t regret it. ❤️⠀
  • If you told us as little girls that we would write a book together and that it would eventually be made into a real life thing for everyone to read, we would've collectively cried the happiest of tears. It's crazy to think that even the wildest of dreams could someday become reality.
  • What do you do to overcome writer's block? 📝 One of our favorite tricks is to write with pen and paper instead of with a laptop. It's such a simple switch, but it really helps to get those creative juices flowing!
  • Our first book signing was about two weeks ago and we’re still so proud of the experience. Thank you so much to @ontariolibraryassociation for having us and @InkyardPress' Canadian team for being such great hosts. We really had a great time living it up in the Land of Justin Trudeau, Drake, Degrassi, and maple syrup. 🇨🇦
  • Are you less serious about your dreams if you aren’t willing to uproot your life and quit your job to follow them? If you let the internet tell it, yes you are. 😌 You hear success stories everywhere of people talking about how they left the job they hated and are now fulfilling their hearts’ desires, traveling the world, visiting far off places that you can’t even pronounce. ⠀ ⠀ They’re living the life that you want for yourself. And you can feel your insides filling like a hot air-balloon, envy carrying you off into the blue sky—up, up, and away. ⠀ Today on the blog, we're discussing how there's no dishonor in having a day job while you follow your dreams.
