I just spent the last several hours writing about a Black girl who gets to fuck shit up cause people done pissed her off one too many times and I'm reminded that, even amidst this hellscape, I really get to live my dream of writing books for Black girls who ain't never wanted to talk out a problem.

My review of Dead Among the stars by @clockhartwrite.bsky.social That I forgot to post before the review of book 2 😅 ... Better late than never! #Booksky #spaceopera #blackbooks #bookreview
ARC Review: Captured Among the Stars by @clockhartwrite.bsky.social A good follow up to the first book Death Among the Stars. It gave me everything I wanted and more, path to finding self, people wrestling with guilt, action, range of emotion and some messiness #booksky #CMLockhart #arcreview
Y'all like books? Cause I'm gone be outside today if you're around the Charlotte area ✌🏾
