Noire Book Reviews

By: Natasha Nicolo
  • Summary

  • Noire Book Reviews features books by and/or about Black people from across the diaspora. Noire Book Reviews is a part of the Media Noire Network created and hosted by me, Natasha Nicolo, to celebrate Black pride, excellence, and power all 366 days of the year. (Note: In the early episodes, you will hear mention of "Noire Histoir, " my original Black history and culture podcast. That podcast still exists as Noire History but now focuses on Black history and non-fiction books and documentaries. I'm moving previous reviews of fictional books as well as some memoirs and biographies from that podcast to Noire Book Reviews. Show notes and additional information about both podcasts are available at https://medianoire.com.)
