By the numbers: 7 total, 6 by women, 4 by POC, 1 nonfiction, 1 YA, 1 middle grade, 0 5 Stars.

* This is a lie. Because Madeleine L’Engle and E.L. Konisburg are my favorite authors. No I mean N.K. Jemison. Or maybe Ann Patchett? No definitely A.S. Byatt. Or was that A.S. King… Hmm.

My rating scale, for all media:

1 star - Did Not Like

2 star - Fine

3 star - Liked

4 star - Loved

5 star - Personal All Time Classic

All images link to titles at bookshop.org, similar shipping to <ahem> larger retailers, but with products sold by indie bookstores (you can choose to support indie bookshops generally OR to order through your local bookstore); they also have their own eReader. For audiobooks, I recommend libro.fm. And most of all, I recommend being a frequent patron of your local library. Most libraries also loan out digital and audio texts, and the Libby app for reading or listening to library eBooks is as good or better than Kindle/Nook.
