In honour of Black History Month, we’ve put together a list of some of our favourite books by Black British women.

The books, from the top row left to right are: Yoruba Girl Dancing by Simi Bedford Mr Loverman by Bernardine Evaristo 26a by Diane Evans The Long Song by Andrea Levy The Memory of Love by Aminatta Forna Boy, Snow, Bird by Helen Oyemi The Rose Petal Beach by Dorothy Koomson The Spider King’s Daughter by Chibundu Onuzo Second Class Citizen by Buchi Emecheta -- source link
