Jenai's Book Club Has Its First June 2025 Pick
Get your bookshelf ready!
June’s here and it’s bringing the promise of an incredible summer. It also kicks off the start of my book club and I couldn’t be more excited! After learning about fake summer reading lists being green-lit online by publishers, I know real writers, our voices, and our reviews are needed. So without further ado, let’s dive into my beauty and book nook picks!
P.S. Yes, I updated the logo so I can solely focus on books!
June Book Pick
Book: Can’t Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan
When Kennedy Ryan’s Can’t Get Enough debuted last month, it made perfect sense to choose it as my first pick. It’s the third book in her Skyland series and focuses on Hendrix’s story.
Who is Hendrix you ask? Let’s do a quick recap:
A Brief Introduction to the Best Friends in Skyland
Yasmen: The friend who wasn’t afraid to spin the block after divorcing her first love and the father of her two kids (Before I Let Go)
Soledad: The friend who found love in a hopeless and very forbidden place (This Could Be Us)
Hendrix: The rich auntie who’s been more focused on building her career and living her life than getting married or having kids
Plot Overview
Hendrix Barry has been made quite a name for herself in Atlanta. As part of the team that oversees the Aspire Fund, she’s all about championing the ventures of Black women and making sure they get everything they deserve. The world’s her oyster, but soon a certain sexy and off-limits Maverick Bell enters her orbit. Not only does he have unparalleled charisma, he also sees and understand her silent struggles as she navigates the fate of an aging parent.
Will she be able to resist his persistence or will she realize that even her free-spirited rules are meant to be broken?
