I don't double dip per se, but I have definitely moved books from one task to another once I realized that I had a more efficient way to approach the challenge.

Commissary Kitchen: My Infamous Prison Cookbook by Albert "Prodigy" Johnson

#13 Read a food book about a cuisine you've never tried before

#21 Read a book with a main character or protagonist with a disability

Prodigy had sickle cell disease, which caused chronic pain and required him to modify his prison workout routine. He talks about trying to modify his prison diet to maximize his health. (After the book was published, he choked to death in his hospital room while being treated for sickle cell disease complications.)

Five Days at Memorial: Life and Death in a Storm-Ravaged Hospital by Sheri Fink

#5 Read a book about a natural disaster

#16 Read a doorstopper (over 500 pages) published after 1950, written by a woman

#15 [If you take the stance that all natural disaster books are also books about climate change - but climate change isn't discussed in the book]

I read Fink's book right before the challenge, so I am not using it myself.

Out of Darkness by Ashley Hope Pérez

#7 Read a historical fiction novel not set in WWII

#10 Read a book that takes place in a rural setting

This is historical fiction set around the real occurrence of the New London (Texas) school explosion. Note that it is YA (but fiction, so it's a no-go for #1).

Lost Feast: Culinary Extinction and the Future of Food by Lenore Newman

#13 Read a food book about a cuisine you've never tried before

#15 Read a book about climate change

This book is about the many types of plants/animals/food that have gone extinct and how extinction from overconsumption could change out diets in the future. The author discusses things like silphium, which was very commonly used as a prehistoric seasoning. The author isn't saying that climate change is solely responsible for the extinction of such plants and animals, but at several points she discusses how climate change has affected available food.

Epileptic by David B.

#4 Read a graphic memoir

#21 Read a book with a main character or protagonist with a disability

This book is about the author's experiences growing up with a brother who suffered from treatment-resistant epilepsy.

Teaching My Mother How to Give Birth by Warsan Shire (read by the author — highly recommended!)

#8 Listen to an audiobook of poetry.

#19 Read a book by or about a refugee.

They Called Us Enemy by George Takei (graphic novel edition)

1. YA Non-Fiction
4. A Graphic Memoir
10. Rural Set Book
12. Memoir by Someone Not of Your Faith
*18. Picture Book w/a Human MC from a Marginalized Community
*depending on your definition of picture book. I suspect the intention was the kind for itty bitty children but a graphic novel or comic book is technically a picture book so up to you. (I do my stretching at the end of december lol)

And if you are going for the bonus challenge, Mr. Takei is gay.

Escape from Aleppo by N. H. Senzai works for #19 (book by or about a refugee) and #20 (middle grade book that doesn't take place in U.S. or U.K.). It is about a girl fleeing Syria during the Arab Spring who gets separated from her family members and must find her way out on her own.

Depart, Depart! by Sim Kern fits #5 A book about a natural disaster, #15 a book about climate change, and #11 a debut novel by a queer author.
