12 Books 2020 Ep 10

Book 10 is a literary fiction novel and my introduction to a well-known, award-winning African American author. She’s well known for her memoir, but book 10 is a split narrative. It centers around a sixteen-year old’s coming of age party and the custom-made dress she wears—a dress designed for her mother that her mother never got to wear. Think you know which book I'm featuring today? Tune in to see if you're correct, and possibly add this lush literary fiction novel to your TBR pile.
