In no particular order, these are the novels I enjoyed this year:
Sorcerer to the Crown by Zen Cho (review forthcoming)
Rosewater by Tade Thompson (review forthcoming)
Labyrinth Lost by Zoraida Córdova
Hurma by Ali Al-Muqri, translated by T.M. Aplin
Like a Mule Bringing Ice Cream to the Sun by Sarah Ladipo Manyika
The diverse movies I enjoyed this year:
Adaminte Makan Abu, directed by Salim Ahmed (2011) (review forthcoming)
Neerja, directed by Ram Madhvani (2016)
Sardaarji, directed by Rohit Jugraj (2015)
Te3n, directed by Ribhu Dasgupta (2016) (review forthcoming)
As you can see, for lots of reasons I have been unable to review as much as I would have liked this year. Here's hoping for a somewhat more settled 2017.
