Why read it?
1 author picked Blackened Roots as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Blackened Roots is an excellent collection of bloody, messy, intrigue. Often, we don’t get to see zombies from the lens of people of color (ex. Michonne from The Walking Dead) so this collection is worth its weight in gold. It has so many different perspectives on the classic horror monster that I certainly think should be read as a thriller on Juneteenth.
The stories are all very well-written by indie and traditionally published authors alike, so it’s very diverse and I really enjoyed the voices of each author. One doesn’t have to be a horror fan to enjoy it…
From Kyoko's list on books to celebrate Juneteenth that aren’t about black pain.
