Happy Tiffany D. Jackson Day! We’re celebrating Tiffany and her books in two different ways on the blog and in person today.
Most importantly, it’s Book Club Day–the best day of the month! Tonight, we will be discussing Tiffany D. Jackson’s 2017 novel, Allegedly, in person at our Tampa Book Club with some of our favorites. Allegedly is a study in unreliable narrators and one of my favorite books of 2017. I highly recommend you pick it up. It will leave you reeling for days after you finish it.
We are also celebrating Tiffany on the blog. Today she is giving us her book recommendations for Black History Month. In addition, we’re going to delve into her upcoming novel, Monday’s Not Coming.

LL has focused on books she read when we was younger, so be prepared to topple your TBR with some classics!
