Book Tag Saturday; Halloween Tag

I came across this fun Halloween Tag over at The Book Dutchesses and I decided to play along as I have a weak spot for both book tags and Halloween.

Favorite Horror Book?
I struggle to choose between Bram Stoker's Dracula and Stephen King's The Shining.

What is the scariest moment you experienced while reading a book?
I might be a boring person in that sense, but I haven't had a scary moment yet.

Have you ever dressed up as a book character for Halloween?
Not yet, but I would love to do it once.

If books were just as cheap as candy, what book would you give kids when they came trick or treating?
I would probably go for either Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone by J. K. Rowling or The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman.

If you could find something bookish in your Trick or Treat stash, what would you hope for?
Probably bookmarks and bookish candles.

If you had to choose one author to go Trick or Treating with, who would you choose?
Tony Pollard, as I suspect we might end up discussing horror movies.

In what bookish world do you want to go Trick or Treating in?
As a Harry Potter fan, I would say Hogsmeade and Hogwarts.

What bookish villian do you not want to run into in a dark alley on Halloween?
Bellatrix LeStrange for sure.

Would you rather dress up as a vampire, zombie, werewolf or Shadowhunter?
Vampire for the win.

What books are on your Halloween TBR?
It's so far undecided as I've already read quite a few spooky books this month.

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...
