Ep. 19 Bethsy Plaisir | Rezon nou dwe li plis | Motivasyon

My name is Bethsy Plaisir, I am a Christian woman, married, and an avid reader. I am also a bookstagrammer and booktuber.

I started posting the books I read on my personal IG towards the end of 2018, and in 2019 I would do reviews of books I read on my IG stories.

Concurrently, I found a corner of youtube called booktube, where there was an underground world of people who basically review, and recommend books.

After watching my favorite booktuber for a whole year, I decided to join in and create my own space.

I mainly read books by people of color, and since I'm Haitian, during the month of May and June I read books by Haitian authors or books on Haiti.

I started this in 2019, and continued it when I created my own bookstagram (bethsysreadingjourney) with the hashtag Haitian Reads.
