From The Mixedup Desk Updates Week of 2/3

Happy Black History Month, friends!

How is everyone hanging in there? January felt like an entire year and February is shaping up to be another full year.

I didn't read much in January. I read 5 books. This might seem like a lot to some folks, but I usually read 10-14. My reading month was a mixture of romance and horror.

I read 3 Emily Henry's: Book Lovers, Happy Place and Funny Story (are you reading for my official Emily Henry ranking).

I read 2 horror books: The Good House, by Tananarive Due and The Unfinished by Cheryl Isaacs (YA Indigenous Horror).

This month, I am starting off strong with a Black romance by one of my favorite authors, Tia Williams. I am reading A Love Song For Ricki Wilde. This is a fan favorite. Have you read it yet? I'm really enjoying it so far!

My goal is to read 15 books this month (LOL) but I'm also reading manuscripts submitted to Boozhoo! (why can't I find a way to track this in Storygraph?)
