Binti is a fabulous sci-fi novella that felt like Ray Bradbury visited Wakanda. Binti is a strong female heroine who is trying to figure out who she is in the universe. Is she the dutiful daughter with her parent’s genius mathematical skills destined to take over the family business? Is she an earth-devoted member of the Himba tribe strengthened by the cultural rituals of her people? Or might she be something bigger than anyone could imagine?
I will definitely be picking up the next book to see where her new found identity takes her next.
This was my first BIPOC sci-fi/fantasy read of the year. This month I’m also hoping to read Black Sun, Legendborn and Queen of the Conquered.
What’s your first BIPOC read of 2021?

I am the Vice President of Clinical Affairs for a medical device company where my job is to promote the utility of the device to doctors. I have science and business degrees and have editorial experience in medical communications. In college, I served as an Editorial Assistant for a healthcare communications company and have served on two editorial boards for peer-reviewed journals.
In my free time, I always have a book in my hand... or two or three! On average, I read 20 books a month. I have looked to combine two of my skill sets to review on Goodreads and promote books on Instagram that I love to other readers.
I'm open to partnering with publishers as an influencer for book tours, giveaways etc.
