Book profiles (which are NOT reviews) feature details about a book from the ISBN, Covert Art credit, Audiobook Info, Synopsis, & Blurbs to Setting, Tense, POV, Characters List & Identifiers, etc… all in one place! New book profiles are added to the database 1-3 times a week.

2021 and 2022 Books are in queue for future book profiles. If you have a request for a traditionally published young adult book written by a Black author which was published prior to 2021 that you would like to see receive a book profile, please email info@melanininya.com and backlist requests will be prioritized in the queue.

Note: Books profiles are organized below alphabetically by book title.
