Happy #BookLoversDay. #TheBookOfNightWomen isn’t the easiest read but it’s been a favorite of mine for a long time. I often ask myself not only “what would Lilith do?”, but mostly “what would Homer do?”. *edit* #TheMotherOfUsAll about #QueenNanny is another one that means a lot to me. 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲 (at Brooklyn, New York)
