Black Girl Magic

We are something special,

Unique and different.

God took his special time with us:

Skin abundantly rich in melanin,

Dark and glowing, ebony at its best,

Coconut oil , cocoa butter and shea butter 

All working their wonders.

Eyes the most glamorous shades of brown,

Glistening like precious gems in the sun.

Hair thick and bouncy,

Healthy , soft, and full of life.

We are absolutely perfect in imperfection.

We’re queens, and goddesses.

Never let anybody tell you you’re not magic.

Hi there!

My name is Ru, or Oyinda. I’ve been reading for as long as I can remember, and my love for books has only grown stronger over the years. There’s something so special about getting lost in a story and then sharing those thoughts with others. On this blog, you’ll find book reviews, honest (and sometimes rambling!) bookish thoughts, recommendations across different genres, and many more for fellow book lovers. Whether you’re searching for your next read or just want to chat about books, you’re in the right place.
