Book Tag; Are You Ready For Sweater Weather? The Autumn Tag

I came across this fun tag called Are You Ready For Sweater Weather? The Autumn Tag over at Jenniely and I decided to play along.


Rules: Answer the questions, link back to the creator (Jenniely) and tag other people!

1. Hot Chocolate - what is your comfort book?
The Little Bookshop of Love Stories by Jaimie Admans.

2. Pumpkin Carving - what is your favourite creative outlet?
Photography and creative writing.

3. Falling Leaves - changes that appear bad, but you secretly love?
When the autumn arrives and the darkness arrives again. As I struggle with migraines, too much sunlight is a pain at times.

4. Pumpkin Spice Latte - something you love that others seems to judge
Horror novels - I sometimes get a bit crap for loving them.

5. Bonfire Night - what makes you explode with joy?
"Everything" autumn. The beautiful foilage, the warm colours, the colder weather, wearing knitted sweaters, curl up inside with a good book, lighting the fireplace, you name it.

6. Fright Night - favourite scary book or film
This one may not be scary-scary, but I do love the movie Dracula - Dead and Loving It. As for spooky books, I'd recommend The Woman in Black by Susan Hill.

7. Halloween Candy - favourite thing to eat
Aside from chocolate, I do love a tasty cinnamon swirl.

8. Scarves - your autumn "must have" accessory
I do love a nice scarf.

9. Fire - a book or film that burns your soul
12 Years A Slave by Solomon Northup

10. Toffee Apples - a book or film that seems one thing but really has a different side
Spellbook of the Lost and Found by Moïra Fowley-Doyle

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...
