#BlackHistoryMonth Loving this memoir about a daughter of #Haitian immigrants who was born into poverty but had an abundance of street smarts. A natural hustler, Cin was always scheming and scamming finding creative ways to earn money. Deciding college was an expense she couldn‘t afford, Cin chooses to apply for a job on Wall Street as a cold caller. Think a female Jordan Belfort 🐺

Finally finished the October #foodandlit buddy read! (7 minutes left until November in my time zone😄)
This was a very different and unexpected story, I enjoyed Alaine's snarky remarks, mixed-medium diary/assignment reports and will definitely spend some time googling the food and dishes mentioned, Haitian cuisine sounds delicious!
4/⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
3/5 ⭐️ I'm mixed on this one. I found Alaine to be immature, does that mean I'm getting old... Oh God. What it lacks in the storyline though, it makes up for in its vibrant descriptions of Haiti and it's culture.

Hello #FoodandLit Buddy Readers! 🇭🇹
How are you liking the book so far? I'm halfway through and enjoying it! I like Alaine's sense of humor.
Do you like the style of the books with the diary entries, letters, and emails?
There is one thing that has bothered me that I'll put in the comments to avoid spoilers.
Another yummy meal, inspired by #FoodandLit. Red beans and rice, plantain casserole, and cabbage salad.

How are we entering the last quarter of the year?!?!
Have you liked having buddy reads this year? Do you want #FoodandLit buddy reads to continue in 2023?
A book I had never heard of until I was challenged to read it for the Trope-Ical Readathon on twitter. Learned a bit about Haiti which was nice. I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️
