All About Diversity Giveaway Hop

This hop is about showcasing books with diversity! I had to stop because there are so many great books to add to this but I'm sure you can think of more.  
This Giveaway is International. 

Here are a few suggestions



a Rafflecopter giveaway

  1. I'd probably chose an old fave I sadly still don't have on my shelves: Fire by Kristin Cashore. The main character (described as brown-skinned, although a lot of fanart will try to tell you otherwise) is complex, strong, and just very interesting.

  20. Isn’t it a great problem to have? Too many diverse books to start listing off? We have a long way to go, but it’s amazing! I am so happy for the inclusion of many other people and beliefs! As readers, we become learners. I’m excited to learn more through these authors. Finally!!!

    As for a book to choose, I’m not sure. I still haven’t read The Hate U Give and I feel like that may have to be the one. Dread Nation is also calling out to me! Ohh, but so is Children of Blood and Bone. So many! ❤️❤️❤️
