This month our recommendations are a blend of personal safety, dramatic storytelling, and supporting black businesses. Sabrina offers "Bo Society & Books" which promotes personal growth and empowerment through a range of Christian books and an optional membership program. She also recommends "The Gift of Fear," a book offering insights into intuition and self-protection. For screen time, Cherika suggests the film "Sinners". EB came through with two Netflix series: "Sweet Magnolias" a heartwarming story of female friendship and life in a small Southern town, and "Ransom Canyon" a romantic Western saga centered on ranching families and their struggles in Texas. Cowboy Carter must have EB in a country mood. Check it all out below!
