Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge; Books I Can't Wait to Read in 2020

It's Wednesday again and time for a new Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge, courtesy of Long and Short Reviews. The theme of the week was books I can't wait to read in 2020. Although I've blogged about similar topics recently, there's a bunch of books I would love to read this year.

Here is a few of them;

The Body in the Snow by Nick Louth

Taking a Knee, Taking a Stand by Bob Schron

The Occupation by Deborah Swift

A Field Guide to Homicide by Lynn Cahoon

      You're welcome. I'm a bit of a mystery lover myself. :-)

    Love the variety of selections here. Taking A Knee, Taking A Stand looks very interesting, and The Occupation looks equally interesting in a very different way.

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.

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...
