Righteous (by Joe Ide)
The sequel to IQ and the year's first Read Harder Challenge book since it fits the "Mystery by a person of color" category -- although I would have read it regardless!
I didn't feel Righteous was as good as the first in the series -- jumping back and forth between the two storylines lost some momentum for me, and I found myself having to reorient myself with all the main players every time the timeline shifted. I also didn't feel there were quite as many awesome Sherlock Holmesy "aha!" moments in this one. But I still enjoyed it and love Isaiah as a character, and will likely stick with the series for now.
