Welcome to The Connoisseur’s Table
“Brown Sugar” by Amacie Comix, July 2023
Welcome to The Connoisseur’s Table. I’m your host, Torri but in these literary streets, I go by @blackromanceconnoisseur.
Our Place, Our Space
This is a dedicated space where the beauty and depth of the Black Romance genre are celebrated without reservation. It's a refuge for lovers of Black love—authors, readers, and content creators alike. Here we don’t have to justify the significance, vitality, and beauty of Black love in all forms of media [Books, Art, Television, Movies].
This is our community. While social media is great for our conversations and making connections, this blog is my home base. Here, our conversations can be aren’t confined to the community guidelines or fighting the algorithms that favor content that doesn’t look like us.
What I’m Into Currently
For this entry's "What I’m Into Currently," I’m reading Saint by Rae Anderson. On the music front, Her Favorite Spot by Jayson Lyric has been on repeat when I’m not reading. Also, I'm listening to #pillowtalkwithNic: A Night with Christina C. Jones, hosted by the talented Nicole Falls.

Before I wrap up this post, it feels like the perfect moment for a question inspired by one of my favorite movies, “Brown Sugar.” So, just as they ask, “When did you fall in love with hip-hop?” I’m turning the spotlight to you with a twist: When did you fall in love with Black Romance?
Feel free to share in the comments section—I can’t wait to read them.
Until next time.
