Which book would you rather read this month?

I will be picking a book at noon today, and I want to know what you guys think! Here are the book's I'm looking at!

No One's Gonna Take Her Soul Away by Amanda Weaver: This book follows a Black woman who is unjustly sent to the seventh level of hell and must fight her way through all seven levels in order to confront the goddess who condemned her and the man who took her life. This book tackless things like misogynoir, being your own hero, domestic violence, etc.

_**Chain-Gang All-Stars: **_Imagine the prison industrial complex without any effort to conceil it's true nature. Prisoners have been pitted against one another in a gladiator-type competition where one can hypothetically earn their freedom by winning a certain number of death matches. This book is a dystopian commentary on America as a prison state and will challenge everything you ever understood about abolition and the need to tear down the systems that kill us all.

_**Blood at the Root: **_This book won't be released until May 7th, but it is such an incredible book. It follows a young Black boy who has been accepted to a magical HBCU after spending his life thinking he was responsible for his mother's death. But upon finding out she may be alive, he must throw himself into a new world and find the person responsible for her disapearance. This book is about Black boys, in all of our complexity.
