Black History Month, Day 22.

Book Review: The Secret World of Maggie Grey by Granger
Rating: 3.9/5

Fantasy books that center Black characters? That’s my lane. Vampires, werewolves, mythical worlds — I’m all in.

And this book had it all on paper… but too many issues held it back.

Are African readers done with trauma-filled lit?

We’re seeing a shift — from war and colonialism to romance, joy, and rest. The “soft life” is redefining African storytelling.
