Are you searching for stories that feed your creative spirit? In this solo episode, I share four incredible books by women of color essential to your summer reading list. 

These books feature narratives of immigration, identity, and magical realism. These reads have resonated deeply with me. I hope they may fuel your artistic journey. 

Join me as we explore these powerful voices in contemporary literature that promise to transport, challenge, and inspire you long after turning the last page.
