Book Tag; Winter Wonderland Tag

I came across the Winter Wonderland Tag over at A Little But A Lot and I decided to play along as it looked like a fun tag to do.

ONE: WHAT BOOK IS SO HAPPY AND SO SWEET THAT IT JUST WARMS YOUR HEART?
The Little Bookshop of Love Stories by Jaimie Admans

TWO: WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE BOOK WITH A WHITE COVER?
Stalking Ground by Margaret Mizushima

THREE: YOU’RE SITTING IN A NICE, COMFORTABLE CHAIR WITH A CUP OF HOT CHOCOLATE. WHAT MONSTER BOOK ARE YOU READING?
If it's about size, I wouldn't mind re-reading A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness.

FOUR: ITS SNOWING OUTSIDE AND YOU DECIDE YOU WANT TO HAVE A SNOWBALL FIGHT. WHAT FICTIONAL CHARACTER DO YOU WANT TO HAVE THIS SNOWBALL FIGHT WITH?
I wouldn't mind playing in the snow with Robo, the GSD in Timber Creek K-9 Mystery series by Margaret Mizushima. As I grew up with dogs, and one of the family dogs was a GSD, I know just how much fun it is playing with them in the snow.

FIVE: SADLY, YOUR CAMPFIRE IS DYING. WHAT LAST FEW CHAPTERS OF A BOOK WOULD YOU THROW IN THE FIRE TO REVIVE IT AND KEEP YOURSELF WARM?
Can I just please throw the entire "Fifty Shades of Poorly Written Fan Fiction Smut" at the fire?

SIX: WHAT BOOK DO YOU LOVE SO MUCH THAT YOU WOULD BUY ANOTHER COPY OF IT TO GIVE TO SOMEONE AS A CHRISTMAS GIFT (OR ANY GIFT REALLY) TO INSPIRE THEM TO START READING?
It all depends on the person, but a couple of options would be A Pair of Silver Wings by James Holland or The Woman in Black by Susan Hill.

Review; The Prettiest Girl in the Grave by Kristopher Triana

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. But all girls are equal, when they’re down in this cave, until just one is left standing—The Prettiest Girl in the Grave. It’s only supposed to be a game.

Annoncing the 2023 Diversity Reading Challenge

Image
As it's 2023 in less than two months, I figured out it was time to annouce the 2023 Diversity Reading Challenge. 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 ADHD and autism) Feminist themes/issues Physical/mental disabilities Characters/authors with chronic health issues Characters/authors in wheelchairs Characters/autho
