Book Tag; The Flower Book Tag

I came across this fun tag called The Flower Book Tag, which was created by Wordy and Whimsical and I decided to play along.

Roses are traditionally given as an expression of love: what’s your favourite romance in a book?
The slow burning one. No offense against Instalove, but I prefer the slow burning one.

Stargazer Lilies are named for their blooms that face toward the sky: who is your favourite ambitious character?

Starr from The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas

Peace Lilies are known for being one of the easier houseplants to care for: what is a book you think anyone could love?

Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie

Chrysanthemums are given on Mother’s Day in Australia: who is your favourite fictional mother?
Molly Weasley for sure. How is it possible NOT to love her?

Spider Plants are easy to propagate: what is a hyped-up book that you love?

Where The Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens

Lily of the Valley is pretty but poisonous: share a book with a beautiful cover that was actually disappointing!

The Belles by Dhonielle Clayton.

Orchids are one of the oldest flower types known to man: what’s your favorite classic novel?

Dracula by Bram Stoker

Peonies require lots of care: share a bookish friendship that was caring and supportive!

I love how the group in Knit and Nibble Mystery Series by Peggy Ehrhart cares for each other.

Hyacinths have a sweet, lingering fragrance: what’s the sweetest novel you’ve ever read?

The Little Bookshop of Love Stories by Jaimie Admans

Tulips are bright, popular, and showy: who’s your favorite larger than life character?
I'm honestly not quite sure.

Certain type of Water Lilies are difficult to eradicate: What is a novel that has stood the test of time, and remained your favorite through the years?

Dracula by Bram Stoker

Lavender has many uses, from landscaping and food to cosmetics and essential oils: name a book you love that fits in more than one genre!

Kartography by Kamila Shamsie is a contemporary novel with some romance in it (without being the sicky sweet romance)

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...
