Topp ti tirsdag; Ti bøker som inneholder karakterer med usynlige lidelser

Det er en ny tirsdag, noe som betyr en ny topp ti-liste takket være bokbloggen The Broke and the Bookish. Denne ukens tema var "ti bøker som inneholder karakterer X", så jeg valgte karakterer med usynlige lidelser.

Min liste er denne;
Fifteen Seconds of Normal av Alex Marestaing

The Edge of Brilliance av Susan Traugh

Fangirl av Rainbow Rowell

Svart belte av Marianne Clementine Håheim

Stryk meg over håret av Agnes L. Matre

Harehjerte av Ingrid Melfald Hafredal

The Bell Jar av Sylvia Plath

Prozac Nation av Elizabeth Wurtzel

Girl, Interrupted av Susanna Kaysen

Spinner av Michael J. Bowler

    Jeg har ikke lest mange bøker om tegn med usynlige forstyrrelser. Takk for at du forteller oss om så mange av dem!

    Jeg har allerede lest The Bell Jar. Det var en utmerket bok. Femten Sekunder av Normal høres veldig interessant også.


    Her er vår Top Topp ti tirsdag.

      I'm glad to hear that!

      Nå vil jeg gjenta denne kommentaren på norsk for noen her som ikke snakker engelsk: Jeg er glad for å høre det!

      :)

    Jeg har lest ett par av disse, men det var flere jeg kunne tenke meg å lese. Jeg valgte psykiske lidelser som min "ting" og det inspirerte du meg til :-)

      Takk for kommentar, skal sjekke ut listen din. :-)

      Tror forresten at du potensielt kanskje ville likt Spinner, hvis jeg kjenner deg riktig.

    You chose a great topic, Kristin, one that deserves attention. I haven't read any of these. Fangirl is on my wish list though. Thank you for sharing!

      Thanks for your nice comment. :-) I can admit that I partially chose the topic because I felt it deserved a bit of attention.

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...
