Brown Girl Book Party

The BG’s at the BP Catch Up

Friends, followers, book lovers:
 
This episode was intended to be shared weeks ago, and by weeks we mean over a month. Here's the thing, life happens. We know you know - not only because you are real humans with the capacity to see, her and empathize with us but because life has been happening for you too. 
 
So, forgive us for any dated content but continue to listen because this was made with you in our hearts. The good news is that you'll have another episode from the BG's super soon! As long as Shannon doesn't forget to edit it, and upload this time. We'll see. 
 
xoxo, 
The BG's at the BP
