Aarti of Book Lust is once again hosting her More Diverse Universe reading challenge. I'm really looking forward to it!
Previously this challenge was focused on science fiction & fantasy, as that is an area in which writers of colour are noticeably underrepresented. This year, however, Aarti has adapted the challenge to include ANY book written by a person of colour. Whatever you like to read, pick just ONE book and read along!
Aarti says:
- Read and review one book
- Written by a person of color
- During the last two weeks of September (September 14th – 27th)
Do you think you can do it? Sure you can! Sign up over at Aarti's blog and join the plethora of readers who will be celebrating the vast number of books that feature a more diverse universe.
I'm not sure what I'll be reading, but I have some great choices on my TBR right now, so I will probably pick up at least one of those. I've discovered some fabulous authors through this challenge, hope to find more this year!
I'm looking forward to this one too, but I'm glad she has expanded the categories, because I don't read a lot of sci-fi or fantasy.
ReplyDeleteI did find a new fantasy author that I loved last year -- but I do read a lot of other genres more frequently so I'm also happy :)
