It's Black History Month and this month Charles Dickens would have been 200 years old. I'm looking to read at least one book to honor both events. I am looking for an African-American author mostly of mysteries (or if you know any writing in fantasy/horror/sf let me know). I'll probably end up reading another Easy Rawlins story since I know my library carries Walter Mosley. I have an article with some female authors I've not heard of though I can't say the library would have them.
As for Dickens, I'm not sure yet what I'll read (probably again whatever the library has) I just know it won't be Bleak House again. I've read most of them as a kid. Have to think.
Books (you know the drill talk to me about them!)
Books: Phoenix Rising steampunk
Books: Murder on the Cliffs historical mystery
Manga: Dance in the Vampire Bund vampire manga
Manga: Black Butler #7 historical/supernatural
Books: Cross Bones m/m erotica (my story in this anthology is Ghost of Jupiter)
Manga: Hero Tales #5 action manga, end of series (illoed by Arakawa)
Manga: Blue Exorcist #2 supernatural
Manga:Soul Eater #7 supernatural/action
Books: Dark World Tru Haunting (the dude from Ghost Adventures)
Books: Death in the City of Light: The serial killer in Nazi-Occupied Paris true crime
Books: The Thirteenth Child m/m erotica urban fantasy
DVDS (look I got my money's worth out of Netflix)
Thor superhero
Iron Man 2 ditto
Green Lantern ibid
Cowboys and Aliens SF/action
Ghost Hound volume 2 disc 1 anime supernatural/psychological thriller
