A review by vikreads
Black Boy Joy by Kwame Mbalia

fast-paced

4.5

Anthologies are usually hard to review, because there are may be stories that are superb, and others that you can barely make it through. However that wasn’t the case for this one. While I know I’m not the key demographic - being an adult, white, female - I still found this collection absolutely wonderful. To title it with the word Joy was so fitting, each story tug on your heart strings in some way and the genres were spread out. Fiction, sci-fi, fantasy, realistic stories. I enjoyed each one. I listened to it as an audiobook as well and also loved the narrators! If you’re looking for a quick read that puts a smile on your face - here’s one for sure.
