There’s nothing like mandatory quarantine to get you to pick up a book again. Our community of writers and creatives are reading through this pandemic as an act of self-care. I asked our Instagram followers “What books are you currently reading to uplift and inspire you?” and I got so many replies! I thought it would be cool to create a community book list of what we are reading during this time.

1) Maya Angelou: The Complete Poetry

2) The Empath's Survival Guide: Life Strategies for Sensitive People by Judith Orloff

3) Belong by Radha Agrawal

4) The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz

5) Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No To Take Control of Your Life by Henry Cloud

6) One House Over by Mary Monroe

7) I Don’t Wanna Die Poor by Michael Arceneaux

8) The Pleasure Zone by Stella Resnick

9) Assata by Assata Shakur

10. It’s Not All Downhill From Here by Terry McMillan
