Last week’s book signing with Tiffany L. Warren for A Harlem Wedding was EVERYTHINGGG 😭📚✨

Not only did we get an incredible conversation, but we also got all the tea, history, and drama surrounding Yolande Du Bois and that era. The way Tiffany brought these real historical figures and moments to life had the whole room locked in. We absolutely recommend this read if you love historical fiction with depth, emotion, and a little mess 👀

And we HAVE to give flowers to our moderator Barbara Keaton because whew 😂 she kept the conversation flowing, funny, and LIVE all night long. Honestly, she could do stand-up comedy if she wanted to! We’re so thankful for the energy, insight, and joy she brought to the evening.

Missed the event? Don’t worry — we still have signed copies of A Harlem Wedding available online and in-store, PLUS signed copies from Barbara too! And make sure you check out the replay posted right here on our page 🎥

Thank you to everyone who came out and made it such a memorable night 🖤
