Top Ten Tuesday; Characters That Remind Me of Myself

It's Tuesday and time for a new Top Ten Tuesday post, courtesy of That Artsy Reader Girl and the theme of the week was characters that remind me of myself.

As I haven't "met" that many literary characters that reminded me of myself, I decided to include a few characters from TV shows, movies, cartoons and such.

My list includes;
Hermione Granger from the Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling
Matilda from Matilda by Roald Dahl
Arabella Holmes from the Boneseeker series by Brynn Chapman
Cath from Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell
Nemi from the Nemi comics by Lise Myhre
Belle from Beauty and the Beast
Lydia Deetz from Beetlejuice
Velma from Scooby Doo
Wednesday Addams from The Addams Family
Abby Sciuto from NCIS

    Matilda is a great answer. I wish we could have a sequel about her adulthood.

    My TTT.

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...
