    I’ve read mainly books written by white men. Suggest me some authors or books not written by white men

      What genres do you like though? There are So. Many. Options. I want to recommend books you’ll really like but I need more info!

      I mean, you don’t even give a hint about the kinds of things you like to read. There are about a gazillion female authors, for example. Why don’t you add more information so we can suggest accordingly?

    12. Octavia E Butler books. Two of her most popular are: **Kindred**, **Parable of a Sower**

      Then you will want to read this fascinating biography of her and her works. **Positive Obsession: The Life and Times of Octavia E Butler** by Susana Morris. It will make you appreciate her more and want to read all the books she’s written

    13. My favorite books are normally fiction or historical fiction, horror, or who done kinda books
