Seema Vennam
Seema Vennam (@diversifyyourshelf) is a voracious reader and literary influencer committed to the idea that you’re not well-read if you’re not reading diversely. With tens of thousands of followers across social media, she joyfully encourages folks to read more books by authors of color, disabled/chronically authors, and queer authors. A native Southerner, Seema lives with her spouse in Nashville. With or without a book, she spends as much time as possible in the sunshine, admiring flowers and watching bees.
