Overview

The goal of this challenge is to push your boundaries as a reader and actively encourage you to seek out stories you might not otherwise read.  This challenge is meant to broadly challenge readers to scrutinize the voices their reading and find voices they may be missing.

The Categories: Queer/LGBTQIAP+ (1-20), BIPOC (21-40), Disability (41-60), Religion (61-80), Language & Geography (81-100), Non-fiction (101-120), Miscellaneous (121-140). For these categories, it is recommended that you search out own voices stories for the prompt.

I'll be compiling recommendations in two places! These will be updated periodically. My blog will indicate which prompts I'll be recommending books for, whereas the GR shelf will just have them all tagged there!
