News: Brooklyn Book Festival, Greyborn Rising Reviews, and
Musical Youth now in hardcover.
We made our annual trek to join Read Jamaica and the Caribbean Cultural Theater at the Brooklyn Book Festival. CaribbeanReads' author Jewel Amethyst Daniel and author illustrator Daniel J. O'Brien showed up to greet the crowds who stopped by to get a literary taste of the Caribbean.
We met authors and readers including a group of bloggers using #readcaribbean.
In a very favorable review, Kirkus Reviews praised Derry Sandy’s Greyborn Rising published by CaribbeanReads in 2019. Following a detailed description of the book, the Kirkus reviewer states “The author truly excels, however, in his meticulous plotting involving supernatural elements… generate entertaining mayhem … [and] moments of unnerving prose.” The reviewer sums the book up as “A masterful tale that illuminates terrifying creatures in Caribbean lore.”
Kirkus Reviews is an American review magazine founded in 1933 and one of the few who review books published by very small independent presses like CaribbeanReads. They’ve also reviewed The Protectors Pledge by Danielle Y. C. McClean very favorably.
Musical Youth, the award winning Young Adult novel by Joanne C. Hillhouse is now available online in hard cover.
