Book Club Meeting: The Color Line by Igiaba Scego
Sat, Nov 7, 9:30 PM**Happy November, Mocha Girls! ☕🤎** Join the **Mocha Girls Read Los Angeles Chapter** for an afternoon of reading, friendship, fellowship, and community. 📅 **Saturday, November 7, 2026** ⏰ **1:30 PM** 📍 **Lore Bookstore** Our October Monthly Book Selection is *[The Color Line](https://link.amazon/B01y48eRX)*[ by Igiaba Scego.](https://link.amazon/B01y48eRX) ### 📖 About the Book Inspired by true events, this gorgeous, haunting novel intertwines the lives of two Black female artists more than a century apart, both outsiders in Italy. It was the middle of the nineteenth century when Lafanu Brown audaciously decided to become an artist. In the wake of the American Civil War, life was especially tough for Black women, but she did not let that stop her. The daughter of a Native American woman and an African Haitian man, Lafanu had the rare opportunity to study, travel, and follow her dreams, thanks to her indomitable spirit, but not without facing intolerance and violence. In 2019, an Italian art curator of Somali origin is desperately trying to bring her sixteen-year-old cousin to Europe after she has already attempted the long, treacherous journey to Italy. While organizing an exhibition combining the paintings of Lafanu Brown with artwork created by young migrants, the curator becomes increasingly obsessed with Lafanu's life and secrets. Weaving together these two vibrant voices, Igiaba Scego offers a powerful exploration of what it means to be “other,” to be a woman, and particularly a Black woman in a foreign country, yesterday and today. As our 2026 **AROUND THE WORLD** reading journey continues, *[The Color Line](https://link.amazon/B01y48eRX)* takes us to Italy for our October theme, **IT HAPPENED IN ITALY**. 🇮🇹 And remember, **you don't need to read the book to join us.** Come for the conversation, meet your fellow Mocha Girls, and enjoy an afternoon of books, friendship, and community. **Please RSVP so we know you are coming.**

CMLA Bi-Monthly Meetup ***Mystic Museum (Burbank)
Sun, Nov 22, 8:00 PMHey CMLA! We’re getting the group back together, and this time we’re meeting up at the Mystic Museum in Burbank (3204 W Magnolia Blvd). Perfect timing because there’s actually a comic book signing event going on at the museum that same day! So on top of our usual meetup, there will be vendors to chat with and lots of extra stuff to check out. Also, feel free to grab some food at the Bodega next door while we're hanging out. As always, bring whatever comic or art project you're currently working on. We'll just be drawing, swapping convention tips, and talking shop. Whether you draw, write, or just want to connect with other local creators, come hang out. It's a super laid-back vibe, and everyone (friends and family included) is welcome. Can't wait to see what you're all working on. See you there!

These Savage Shores by Ram V - Graphic Novel
Sat, Oct 31, 6:00 PMTwo centuries after the first European ship sailed to the Malabar Coast and made landfall at Calicut, the East India Company seeks to secure its future along the lucrative Silk Route, in the year 1766. An old evil now sails aboard a company ship, hoping to make a home in this new found land. But he will soon find that the ground along the Indus is an ancient one with daemons and legends far older than himself. Along These Savage Shores, where the days are scorched and the nights are full of teeth. This is going to be a change of pace for us, this will be the first graphic novel we have read and shared together for the book club. If you utilize Hoopla it should give you unlimited copies through the Los Angeles County Library or whatever library system you are part of just use your library card. Of course you can find it on Kindle or call you local comic book store and they should have a copy of it for purchase. If you have any troubles getting a hold of it please let me know.
