Barakah's Default

We're halfway into the week but here's what we're reading/watching/listening to!

Better Late Than Never RWL

Celebrating Muslim voices, one book at a time

Barakah Books

Barakah Book Club

During this phase, we're reviewing manuscripts and deciding which book we want to publish. At the end of this phase, we offer an author a book deal.

Consideration

As the manuscript goes through several phases of editorial work, the cover and interior design takes place, while format decisions about paper stocks and printing treatments are made.

Editorial & Design

While the books are on press, the pre-order links go live and the marketing campaign ramps up with waves of review copy mailings to media and influencers.

Pre-order

The finished copies have released on the book's publication date. Go give it some love!

Azanta and Basma

Created by @azantareads and @bookishbasma, Barakah Books is dedicated to the representation of Muslim readers and authors. Basma and Azanta met on bookstagram in 2020 and quickly bonded over their love of reading, only to find out they grew up in the same state, only an hour and a half away from each other. In September 2021, they launched Barakah Book Club, a place they could champion Muslim authors with their community. Barakah Books will carry on that mission, as well as show everyone more of Basma and Azanta!
