      Thanks, I'm sure I'll enjoy them. Part of the reason why I purchased The Belles was that I saw it everywhere too. :-)

    I have been eyeing The Belles for months! The cover is gorgeous. I have a love/hate relationship with YA books though.
    I also adore the artwork of Heartless.

      I do get that some people have a love/hate relationship with YA books, especially since a lot of the same tropes are a bit on repeat.

    What a mailbox haul! I am still enjoying the Lunar Chronicles series. Some of the others look a bit creepy.
    Hope you enjoy all of your reading!

      So far, so good, even with the crime/suspense books with creepy covers.

Announcing the 2022 Diversity Reading Challenge

Image
As we're writing 2022 in two months, I figured out it was time to announce the 2022 Diversity Challenge. I've hosted it in 2019 and 2021, and decided to host it next year too. I’m not going to make any categories or levels for this challenge, as I want it to be a bit flexible. Read as many books as you feel like reading and yes, it can be children’s books, graphic novels, e-books, non-fiction, audio books, poetry and you-name-it. As it is a diversity reading challenge, it would be mean to exclude some types of reading materials, right? Now, what is diversity you might ask? What I mean by diversity is, but not limited to; People of colour/non-caucasian characters/authors Native Americans and other indigenous people LGBTQIA+ Authors/characters defining themselves as trans, intersex, genderfluid or similar Refugees Religious minorities Mental illnesses/disorders Neurodiversity (like ADD, Aspergers and autism) Feminist themes/issues Physical/mental disabilities Characters/authors w

I read the horror novel The Prettiest Girl in the Grave by Kristopher Triana earlier this year and today I'll post my review of the book. Description from Goodreads From the author of international horror sensation Gone to See the River Man comes a new tale of terror that will drag you to the darkest corners of the soul. Some girls are fearful, others are brave. One girl’s a princess, the next one, a slave.
