Diversity Challenge

[Nina {ᴡᴏʀᴅs ᴀɴᴅ ᴡᴀᴛᴇʀ}]

LGBTQ, POC, disabilities are various issues and themes touched on in various genres of fiction. Compared to the grand library of fiction, they are, in some way under represented, however it is a growing area! So, if you're interested in LGBTQ, disability, and other diverse literature, or if you simply want to broaden your reading, then this is the challenge for you! If you need any suggestions, Sam will have a big list of diversity themed novels which she will put up soon.

Level 1: 1-5 books
Level 2: 6-10 books
Level 3: 11-15 books
Level 4: 15+ books

So to participate all you have to do is declare the level you want to pledge. Make sure to update your progress along the way. The challenge starts once you make your pledge and ends on January 1st, 2017.

I pledge Level 1. This one sounds interesting.

[Nina {ᴡᴏʀᴅs ᴀɴᴅ ᴡᴀᴛᴇʀ}]

Good luck! :)

[Rinji]

The list that Sam will put up will be helpful.

[Nina {ᴡᴏʀᴅs ᴀɴᴅ ᴡᴀᴛᴇʀ}]

Yup it definitely will! :) We'll let everyone know when the list/s are ready and up.

[Rinji]

Sounds good.

[Samantha]

I'm almost done with the list! There are a lot more diversity books this year than there were last year, but we could always have more diversity.

[Rinji]

Hey have a question. I have a few books that deal with lesbian and gay romances they are works of contemporary romance. Do those count toward this challenge? Just wanted to make sure.

[Samantha]

Yes! Anything that's LGTBQ or poc counts.

[Rinji]

Yay. Thanks Sam.

[Samantha]

No problem :)
