Sex on the Beach and on the Page: Solo Adventures and TBR Black Romance Escapes

I'm coming to you from Puerto Vallarta on a solo adventure to talk about self-discovery and treating yourself. If it's been a while since you've done something solo or you've been feeling a little anxious or hesitant about taking yourself on a date or planning a solo trip, I hope this episode will be the gentle nudge you need to push you past that hesitation and do the damn thing. There are some experiences in life that teach us profound lessons about ourselves, and solo adventures are absolutely one of them.Reading transports you to different places and different times, but there's nothing like spending time with yourself to really unwind and get to know who you really are and what really makes you tick.In my TBR bag for this trip, and this episode, are:Revive Me by JL SeegarsNo Ordinary Love by Myah ArielCapone I-III (Season one: Delgato Family Book 1-3) by Jahquel JQuasim : King Inferno (Season Four: Inferno Gods Book 1) by Jahquel JWork Song by Danielle AllenPlus Size Player by Danielle AllenFind this and other recommendations at The CultureLit online BookShop and support independent bookstores at Visit my bookshop!Culture Lit is a community celebrating black women and black love, and a reminder that black women deserve joy, love success, second chances, and all the beautiful magic the world has to offer.Please follow the podcast via RSS, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pocket Casts or wherever you listen to your podcasts!Let me know what you’re reading, what you’re thinking, and what you’re thinking about what you’re reading.STAY CONNECTEDInstagram: becomingoctaviaTwitter: xooctaviamarieFB: BecomingOctaviaMarieMusic credit: Cool Jazz Beat by FASOL PRODA Subito Media productionMentioned in this episode:You can find all the books I've reviewed in this podcast in my Bookshop!
