The Davenports
Bridgerton with an all-Black-cast. A swoon-worthy historical romance for fans of Emily in Paris and To All the Boys I've Loved Before.
This is the story of the Davenport daughters, their maid, and their best friend, as they try to navigate life and love in a rapidly changing country.
The year is 1910. The Davenports are one of the few African-American families of wealth and status in the United States, their fortune made by former slave William Davenport.
Now the family live surrounded by servants, crystal chandeliers, and endless parties. But the world around these young women is changing for better or worse. Can romance blossom in these turbulent times?

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
