Hey guy’s, I have a form to let me know what content you would like to see. http://lexreads.com/video-requests
I like how you tell just enough. I’m going to check out the ones I haven’t read.
Love this video! Going to NYC next month just to binge on book stores so definitely grateful for this video 👍🏽
I definitely look forward to more videos like this in different genres about your 5 star reads!!! Definitely added a few of these to my TBR that I didn't already have. 😁🙌🏾
When you reviewed “Mama” I knew that you had to be the real deal. I was going to come to the comment section and mention, “His Only Wife” when you pulled it up. I knew right then and there that I had to subscribe to your channel because these are the kinds of books that Black women (myself included) are looking for. Keep the reviews coming please!🫶🏾
I just started reading A Spell of Good things by Ayobami Adebayo. I read Stay With Me by her and loved it. I am only a couple of chapters into the book, so not sure how I feel about it. I borrowed the book from my library. If I end up loving it then I will purchase a copy of the book, if I don't like then no harm because I borrowed it from the library.
Yes, I agree about Eric Jerome Dickey. His earlier work was so good! I don’t know why he switched up ugh.
I also wanna read Nightbloom by Peace Adzo Medie.
I just got Milk in my Coffee at a thrift store… now I'm hyped to read it!
Great recommendations! I've read all except Donna Hill. Need to add her to my list.
Love you Alexis you make me want to read all these!!!🙌🏾
Excited about a book review of black authors! Finally…
OMG Eric Jerome Dickey!!!! You have the CLASSICS in this video I love it!!!
I LOVE how you explained the nuances in Americanah and "the unspoken rule". As a Jamaican who migrated here, I took had those same issues, and sometimes still do! The way you speak about these books so passionately and eloquently remind me of myself. You have a new subscriber in me Sis!!!
Every book you recommend is amazing read
African writers are such good writers. I am currently trying to build up my African literature collection.
Those were really some amazing picks.
Love that tote bag behind you
Milk in My Coffee is my favourite by Dickey.
👏🏾 Totally agree with your 5⭐️ picks. I have read All apart from Eric’s but I’ve just ordered it 😊thanks
Happy reading 📚😉🌹
I added all of these to my tbr. Thank you for this video
Wow; loved the way you described these. I put most of them on my TBR. Looking forward to checking them out further in the a.m.
