Books 5&6
My book five was It Rhymes With Lust by Arnold Drake, Leslie Waller, Matt Baker and Ray Osrin, an early graphic novel with an African American primary illustrator (Matt Baker). Very interesting book - especially the biography of the artist at the end, which explained that some unusual stuff about the comics publishing industry at that time anonymized the artists to a certain extent, which is part of what made it possible for a person of color to work in the field.
Book 6 was Adaptation by Malinda Lo. It's an interesting YA book with conspiracies and romantic uncertainty running through it. It was a little slow getting started, but the further I went, the better I liked it. By the final third of the book, I couldn't put it down!
As a note, I am now on target for my first month on the project. Now if I can just do this nine more times!
I'm currently working on The Coldest Winter Ever by Sister Souljah and Love is the Drug by Alaya Dawn Johnson.
