I started she lit in 2016 as a personal blog to describe my adventures in Los Angeles aspiring to be novelist while holding down a day job as a news editor and engaging with other readers on the hottest books of the moment. From my love of creating news and features content, I reshaped she lit into a blog for women looking for interesting stories on the books they’re reading, the authors they’re following, and everything in between.

chlorine sky grown a song below water
with the fire on high the black kids punching the air
luster the vanishing half such a fun age
sabrina and corina red at the bone golden child
my year of rest and relaxation my sister the serial killer saint x
minor feelings when they call you a terrorist barracoon
more than enough i'm telling the truth but i'm lying we are never meeting in real life
the meaning of mariah carey open book a song for you
