Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge; Characters Who Remind Me of Myself and Why


It's Wednesday and time for a new Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge, courtesy of Long and Short Reviews. The theme of the week was characters who remind me of myself and why. I'll mention characters not only from books, but also TV and movies, just for some variety.

Hermione Granger from the Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling - as she's an intelligent booklover
Matilda from the book with the same name by Roald Dahl - because she's a huge booklover
Abby Sciuto from NCIS - as she's a huge animal lover and coffee drinker, in addition to having her gothic tendencies
Wednesday and Morticia Addams from The Addams Family - because of their personalities

I suppose those who know me well enough wouldn't even be surprised of hearing me say something similar in terms of coffins.

    That is such a cool mix of personality traits.

    I hadn't thought about Hermoine, but yeah, I'm the one always headed to the library! Also, I loved Abby on NCIS.

    Lovely selections! I'm embarrassed to say that I never even thought about the Addams Family.

      It's not like we can remember all shows and characters at all times.

    I think many of us can relate to Hermione, or at least want to be like her. She's the coolest!

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...
