2021: My year in books
I kept up my usual pace of about two books per month, heavily favoring fiction. Compared to 2020, I did much better in my effort to read more authors of color (11 of 24 authors) but still was sub-50 percent. I’ll strive to beat that in 2022.
My top 2021 recommendations are Nic Stone’s Dear Justyce, a YA read, and Jocelyn Nicole Johnson’s My Monticello. See my entire year.
