The Baddest Chick Series
Who remembers this book series by Nisa Santiago?! Listennnnnn these books had me in a chokehold.
⭐️Overall rating: 5/5. Highly Recommended!
Part 5 is the only one I actually still have the paperback copy. They got lost overtime between letting people borrow them and moving 😩. I’m not even sure Nisa is still writing books. But she was in her bag when she wrote these! Flyy Girl by Omar Tyree was my first glimpse into urban fiction but this series brought it on home for me. Forever an urban fiction book lover!! #youngblackauthor #baddiesread #bookishblackgirls #booksforblackgirls #lemon8bookclub #Lemon8Diary
