My library contains a diverse array of books. I have a large focus on African-African literature, history and culture; with a specific emphasis on women. I have many of the works by: Zora Neal Hurston, Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, Maya Angelou, James Baldwin, Nikki Giovanni, J. California Cooper, Langston Hughes, Terri McMillan, Bell Hooks, and others. I also have many poetry books, autobiographies, historical works and spiritual books. I am still adding books "slowly" to my library thing collections.
