Read MoreHappy Galentine's Day glow getters! February has extra emphasis on black excellence, love, romance, and more. But before we dive into showering others with affection, let's take a moment to focus on ourselves.

So, let's dive into my list, and I'd love for you to join me in exploring these books.
