Woman of Color

I'd never heard of LaTonya but this book caught my eye when I was browsing so I gave it a shot. I really enjoyed this book: it was a quick read which I liked (read it the day I bought it). LaTonya didn't give the reader a bunch of filler, it was just like talking to a cool girlfriend about life, family, style, etc. The photos are really interesting and well-chosen. The fashion advice was great, not over the top at all. Definitely two thumbs up!

I just finished it after forcing myself to not rush through it in a day (I could have easily read it all in one day because each page was better than the next) LaTonya is such a gifted writer! Hers is the only “mommy” type blog that I actually follow and I always knew there was so much beneath the surface and then the book showed that there was way more than I even expected. It was really really really wonderful. I hope she has many more in the pipeline ❤️

I've been reading LaTonya's blog for years, so I was thrilled to hear that she was coming out with a book! Even though I tried to read it as slowly as I could, I devoured it super quickly :) it's a series of vignettes about her life growing up, motherhood, style, and her identity struggling with vitiligo. very approachable and well-written. i loved it!

I just finished reading Woman of Color. I read it in two sittings. I could have read it in one, but I had to go to bed so I could wake up for work the next day! It’s that good. I did not want to put it down. This book captures the LaTonya’s spirit and her experiences and it is also a source of inspiration. I closed this book and feel as if I’ve gained so many insights that I still need to sit with and unpack.

The book is great! It did not come with a cover! The book is colorful, informative & love the vintage pictures! I am so looking forward to read this book. I was hoping to be on a beach reading this book. Well, maybe in the back yard near the fire pit!

Beautiful book, wonderful read. This is life qunitisentially! LaTonya proves that ordinary life is amazing - you don’t have to have it all or constantly travel to far away places for it to be wonderful, and she showcases this masterfully. I have learned so much about womanhood, motherhood, family, life, feeling comfortable in my own skin, and of course, color! Buy it for yourself, for friends and family!

LaTonya has created a wonderful, moving, and intimate portrait of her life and experiences. Without being too preachy or melodramatic, this book offers insight into the private life of a Black mother, friend, sister, writer, and genuine soul. Her voice is deep yet completely accessible, and the photos included bring everything to life. This book can be read in one sitting, and is incredibly satisfying. Highly recommend!

Such a beautiful and thoughtful book. The guestfeatures and lovely gems of knowledge are awesome. Purchased one for my mom and sister as well. Lovely coffee table book too.
