Today’s book suggestion comes from my personal book collection and it’s the book I’m currently reading called Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi.

This is a YA fantasy novel published in 2018 and is the first book in a planned trilogy.

This book draws from some West African mythology and tells the story of a strong female protagonist that is trying to restore the magic of her people.

As soon as I heard about this book and that it was a fantasy story set in Africa, then I saw it’s gorgeous cover, I decided to preorder it from Amazon and I’m enjoying it so much so far. I hope to be able to meet Tomi at New York Comic Con this year, I’m super excited she’s gonna be there!

So, short and sweet, thats my recommendation for today.
