Top Ten Tuesday; Top 10 books I Resolve to Read in 2013

Nytt år og ny tirsdag. Kanskje like så greit å starte året med en "Topp ti bøker jeg skal lese i år", som er ukens tema hos The Broke and the Bookish.


Min liste er todelt. Den ene delen av lista er bøker som jeg må lese i emnet "Engelsk litteratur" på universitetet, mens den andre lista er mer "frivillige" bøker. Om ikke annet er lista ihvertfall LITT variert.

Pensum
Shakespeare - Macbeth
Mary Shelley - Frankenstein
Charles Dickens - Hard Times
Virginia Woolf - To the Lighthouse
Sarah Kane - Cleansed

Utenom
Dr. Lisa M. Masterson - Paper Dollhouse: A Memoir
James Bowen - A Street Cat Named Bob
Edwidge Danticat - Breath, Eyes, Memory
James Joyce - Dubliners
Martin Waddell - The Haunting of Ellen

    Jeg kunne også godt tenke meg å lese Charles Dickens - Hard Times, rett og slett fordi jeg elsker Dickens :-)
    Godt nytt år!

    To the Lighthouse is a beautiful read, but many find it tough to read. I loved The Dubliners, but it takes awhile to get used to Joyce's style.

    Hard Times is one of my favorite Dickens' novels and Macbeth is of course a classic, it's Shakespeare.

    The rest are ones I still need to read. Great picks!

    Happy New Years and happy reading!

    Here are the books I resolve to read

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...

Even though I'm technically having a hiatus for my book blogging at the moment, I still wanted to announce the 2025 Diversity Reading Challenge, just in case anyone wanted to participate in it and start planning their TBR pile. 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.
