Books That Celebrate Black Joy

Welcome to First Book Favorites! We update this section each month to let you know what we're reading, what's making us think, and what we can't stop talking about!

This month, we're highlighting Books That Celebrate Black Joy! From cozy board books to rollicking read alouds, from familiar friendship stories to swoon-worthy romance, we’re lifting up books that affirm Blackness and empower readers. Discover stories that celebrate Black excellence; are rich with unforgettable characters; delight in heritage and culture; and authentically present the diversity of Black experiences, identities, and ways to experience joy.

Thank you to TD Bank for their support of this category as part of the #BlackBooksAllYear campaign.
