Hey diverse book lovers, welcome to this month’s episode of Getting Lit, a monthly podcast dedicated to diverse books coming out for the month. Today we’re going to be talking about all the books coming out in May, that you should add to your list. 

On today’s show, we’ll discuss…A political page-turner that delivers, a memoir of grief by a prolific feminist voice,  a riveting book about strong women during the Cuban Revolution, a Jamaican story, and a Filipino story both about family ties and self-discovering and a search for truth and a middle school historical mystery. 

But first  I want to give a shout-out to today’s sponsor Libro.FM. Libro.fm https://libro.fm/referral?rf_code=lfm247063
