We want to hear from you. We’ve shared our top picks for 2021–now it’s your turn.

If you’re looking for inspiration, we have two sources for you. Using our new Power Search, we learned that, in 2021, we gave DIKs to 139 books published in 2021. We gave the most DIKS to contemporary romance (30), historical romance (25), historical fiction (13), and romantic suspense (14). Thirty-three featured leads of color and twenty-five were by authors of color. Additionally, you can see all the books our staff picked in one place on our Amazon Storefront.
