This was such a good read yall! It's not the family you were born into, but the family you create. Take a listen as we take you back To The Moon.


If I'm the moon, then you must be the sky!

You ever felt like someone was made for you? Crafted in your image the same way Eve was for Adam?

Javen Cooper, knew Luna Moony was made for him. First, in the form of a best friend— the female version of the boy he loved like a brother. But as time moved forward, something else bloomed— something that blurred the lines of love and lover. It was so magnetic, nothing could keep them apart.

Except life.

And Luna’s need to protect Javen.

After the death of her twin, Luna, is left to mother her siblings alone. Barely eighteen, she spends her days making things better for those around her. She’s the fixer— the one you go to when everything seems to go wrong. But who does she seek out when life becomes too much? As if her call finally gets through the prayer line, life becomes easier thanks to an inheritance from a father she never knew.

And when life is better for Luna, she makes sure she brings everyone with her.

And so the journey begins.

To The Moon, is a coming of age tale centered around poverty and black love. It meets somewhere in the middle of black girl magic and black boy joy.

Daddy (Denache' "Denny" Graham) came to Audible and we celebrated as only the Black Girl Book Club Podcast could...together.



Takerra Allen joined us for a private listening party to let us in on her experience choosing the best people for the job of Denny and Neeka.



Take a listen. ***This episode contains spoilers***


Have you ever loved someone so much that it hurt?

I have.

Have you ever cherished the pain because you knew the kind you'd face without them would be way too unbearable?

That's me.

To young Neeka Perry, Denny is one thing. In the streets, he's a whole other entity. She was brave enough to love both sides, upside down, all around, and back again.

He provided her with all a girl could believe she dreamed of—security, desire, and, most enviably, genuine love, all wrapped up in gold and diamonds.

He removed her far from the course of her ordinary college girl lifestyle and swept her into his world of whimsical madness.

For this and more, her love went beyond loyalty. She was devout… devout to him.

But is there such a thing as too much passion? Can you love someone too much?

And when you realize the person you love, and the person everyone fears, can also be the one everyone loves, and you can one day soon fear, who will save you?

Especially when the person you need saving from is yourself?

Stop right there. I don't want to be saved.

I've shackled myself to him with love. And I swallowed the key.

I'm in this for the long run.

I am devout.

Papa and Demi wore us out with their young love. We were trying to decide if they had a soul tie and concluded they did, so they became a part of our soul tie selection for February.


Dancers dance and hustlers hustle... Love doesn't have any control over who it captures. Demi Westbrook loved Papa to the point of no return. She loved him for who she knew he would become one day. Born with a silver spoon in her mouth, Demi enjoyed life to the fullest, not really knowing what the "hard knock life" felt like, but meeting him changed that. Papa, one of the founding fathers of The Underworld, and the youngest on the team is a hothead and loud mouth. If it's not Papa's way then it's the highway. He's spoiled and bratty at times, but to Demi, he's everything. Going against her parents' wishes to see him, Demi allows Papa to invade her thoughts, her mind, and most importantly in this urban fairytale, her heart. Demi was more than a dancer, the Greats proclaimed it before she left her mother's womb. Being the daughter of Dorane Little wasn't easy. Dorane pushed Demi to be better than she was when she danced back in the day. Surpassing her mother wasn't an easy job. Demi didn't operate in excuses; she worked harder than every other dancer she knew because her eye had always been on the prize. According to her parents, Papa was a distraction but to Demi he was her motivation. In The Pointe of No Return, witness love and tragedy collide. Readers have been invited to the dance theatre to observe Demi Westbrook transform from a teenager with a dream to a grown woman with a title, Prima Ballerina. Papa and Demi ignore the warning signs of her being too young and naïve, and him being too cocky and dangerous. Once they decided that they are living for each other and not the naysayers, the couple love each other immensely to the Pointe of No Return.The Underworld series includes: Please Catch My Soul, Pointe Of NO Return, From His Rib, The Christ Family, Stranger In My Eyes, The Arraignment, Resentment, The Arraignment 2, Redemption

This is not our regular podcast, there are not a lot of laughs in this podcast, but the discussion was wholesome and much needed.


This wasn't the easiest book to get through but it was soooooooo good.Thank you @milliebelizaire for shedding some light on this subject in such a brilliant way.****WARNING**** This book does contain some things that may trigger you, if you do decide to read it please be aware.






1. A girl or guy who is quick to engage in sexual activities.--Oftentimes used to shame. Oftentimes used to blame victims for their own abuse.

After the untimely death of her mother, Caprice Latimore has to move in with her grandmother. At eight years old, life as she knows it is turned upside down. The trauma of losing her mother is made worse with the introduction of Marcel, her grandmother's adult son who still lives in the home.

Her uncle Marcel takes an inappropriate interest in her that ultimately results in a tragic breaking point for the child. The only silver lining is that shortly after what Caprice calls "that night", Marcel is booked by local police with a drug possession charge. He's sentenced to prison for twelve years.

Seven years later, however, Marcel is released on good behavior.

Caprice is now sixteen, still dealing with the emotional scars of the past. But things aren't like they were before.

Because now she has Shaun Taylor, the boy across the street who will do whatever it takes to make sure no one ever hurts Caprice again.

fast is a standalone that spans twenty years. Separated into three acts, we watch Caprice grow from eight years old to sixteen years old to twenty-eight years old. She gets hurt, she falls in love, she grows, and she just might overcome.

fast is a story written about victims who were made to feel like their abuse was their own fault.

TRIGGER WARNINGS: Child abuse, assault in prisons, mental instability, etc.Some themes touched upon in this story may trigger you. Please protect your mental health.
