About the channel

Read with Melanin is a cozy, fantasy-focused book channel highlighting Black authors, Black fantasy books, and immersive storytelling. On this channel you’ll find: 📚 Black fantasy book recommendations & completed series ✨ Fantasy book reviews (spoiler-free & in-depth) 🗓️ Monthly reading wrap ups, seasonal TBRs & reading challenges 🖤 Reading planner setups & cozy bookish content My focus is on fantasy books by Black authors, thoughtful reading opinions, and helping readers find stories worth finishing. ✉️ AUTHORS & PUBLISHERS - Do NOT send physical or digital copies without my permission. - If a book does not interest me, it will not be added to my TBR or recommendation lists. - Reviews, sponsored content, or promotional campaigns require prior discussion, negotiation, and compensation. I may create New & Upcoming Authors videos highlighting books even if I do not plan to read them. ✨ Cozy fantasy | Black authors | BookTube | Reading vlogs | Book reviews | Black BookTube
