Reading is more than a hobby over here, it’s a practice. A homecoming. A way to remember yourself.
If you’re looking for someone who can curate books with care, facilitate conversations with depth, and build literary experiences that feel intentional (and actually fun), you’re in the right place.
I’m Lalaa, library curator, facilitator, and creator behind This Black Girl Reads. I help readers and organizations build meaningful book-centered spaces that support connection, reflection, and community.
Who I work with
- Libraries, schools, and community organizations
- Non-profits + cultural groups
- Book clubs (existing or brand new)
- Brands and publishers who value thoughtful, community-rooted storytelling
- Individuals who want support curating their reading life (and actually sticking to it)
What I Do
Book Club Facilitation + Moderation
Program Design + Literary Experiences
Reading Curation
Content + Bookish Storytelling
Ready to Work Together?
If you’re building something bookish, rooted, and community-centered, I’d love to hear about it.
