Monthly Summary; September 2018

It's the end of the month again and time for a monthly summary. This month I've managed to read quite a few books and it's a bit needed, considering I had a "small" bookhaul this month. Luckily I've even read a few of the books in the bookhaul, which helps a bit. Anyway, beneath the photo, there's a list of books read and this month's book haul.

      Five books are better than nothing. I might be a bit extreme at times when it comes to reading, as I'm both single and childfree.

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.
