My Thoughts on the Book
This cookbook was so much fun as it contains a great variety of burgers and sections that made the book easy to read. I'm really tempted to purchase my own copy of this book so I can try several of the recipes at my own pace. Eating vegetarian food doesn't mean boring.

    This sounds like it has some great flavors. Our family includes several vegetarians--I'll have to alert them to this book.

    You didn't say whether you have tried the recipes, and whether they actually work as written. This makes it hard to know if it's worth looking at.

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
