The Best Books Written by Black Women in 2018 — and Yes, They're All Magical

After reading this book, I had to take a few days to reset because it shook me to the core (in the best way possible). It's haunting, beautifully written, and forces you to consider the way identity is formed — and what it might look like for someone who doesn't fit neatly into a predetermined box. Emezi is a powerful storyteller, and her ability to create such raw and soul-searing work proves that she'll be a writer to watch from here on out.
