Everyone has a TBR (To Be Read) List, which I’ll be sharing next.
However, I also have a Books to Buy List, which I’ll be sharing right now. Like, in this moment.
I’m sharing the books I hope to buy on the blog as a method of accountability. I look at Simply Jamilah a lot, considering it’s my blog, so I’m bound to remember this list is here and will consistently update it.
Plus, as a reader, you’ll know what books are catching my attention to the point where I want to purchase them and maybe one of the titles catch your eye…
