Welcome to Ten Dollar Books

This bookstore originated in Military Park in Newark. I was there selling my first book--Back Like I Never Left: Dating as a Single Mother--during the summer in 2019. I'd pull up with my son in the middle of the day and sell books for ten dollars. It was kinda hard but people showed love.

Since then, I moved things online. Now the books I've written are available here along with others. And it's not just random stuff. I curated all these books. Everything is good and in good condition. The book in the picture is the book you get. New stuff is added regularly.
