Book Tag; The Fall Time, Cosy Time Book Tag

As it's officially an autumn month, I wanted to do a book tag with autumn vibes and found The Fall Time, Cosy Time Book Tag over at Howling Libraries.

1. CRUNCHING LEAVES: the world is full of color! Choose a book with red/orange/yellow on the cover.
The Prettiest Girl in the Grave by Kristopher Triana certainly fits.

2. COZY SWEATER: it’s finally cool enough for warm cozy clothing! What book gives you the warm fuzzies?
It might be because I've got a weak spot for Scotland, but City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab is pretty good.

3. FALL STORM: the wind is howling & the rain is pounding. Choose a book that you like to read on a stormy day:
Alright, this book is probably not for everyone, but Come, My Pet by Keira Michelle Telford is a book I could easily read on a stormy night

4. COOL CRISP AIR: makes you breathe freely~ Who’s the coolest character you’d want to trade places with?
Personally, I would love to switch places with Selene from Scarlet Assassin by Jett Abbott/Isabella

5. HOT APPLE CIDER: warm autumn drink. What underhyped book do you want to see become the next biggest, hottest thing?
As it's soon proper autumn, I'd say The Long Shadows of October by Kristopher Triana

6. COAT, SCARVES, & MITTENS: the weather has turned cold & it’s time to cover up! What’s a book cover you don’t like?
At the moment I'm honestly not sure

7. PUMPKIN SPICE: time for some Starbucks! What’s your favorite fall comfort food?
As I'm a huge Dracula fan, it may not be totally surprising I'll say Hungarian Paprika Chicken, as it's mentioned in the classic Gothic novel.

8. WARM, COZY BONFIRE: spread the cozy warmth! Who do you tag?
If you want to do the tag, consider yourself tagged

Review; The Prettiest Girl in the Grave by Kristopher Triana

I read the horror novel The Prettiest Girl in the Grave by Kristopher Triana earlier this year and today I'll post my review of the book. Description from Goodreads From the author of international horror sensation Gone to See the River Man comes a new tale of terror that will drag you to the darkest corners of the soul. Some girls are fearful, others are brave. One girl’s a princess, the next one, a slave. But all girls are equal, when they’re down in this cave, until just one is left standing—The Prettiest Girl in the Grave. It’s only supposed to be a game.

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
