Who Is Touya Rae?

My name is Touya Rae Baptiste– I’m so happy you’re here.

It started with a single book, one that changed everything, pulled me into a world of words, and never let me go. Now, I can’t imagine life without stories; they’ve shaped me in ways I never expected.

Born in the Caribbean and raised in the South, I was drawn to books first out of necessity, then out of love, until reading became a core part of my identity.

But I know that’s not the case for everyone; sometimes the right story hasn’t found you yet and that’s why I created this space. A place where readers and the book-curious can come together, no pressure, just shared excitement for the magic of stories because reading is always better when you have people to scream about it with. Welcome to The Raevn Society.

xoxo Touya
