Hello friends!

Looking back on 2021 I‘ve had a hard time motivating myself to read this year. Partly pandemic related, partly being busy, partly just some meh feelings overall. But I‘ve found I‘ve felt most motivated and got the most reading done when I‘m taking part in challenges so I‘d love to do more next year! I‘m already hyped for #booked2021 and I‘d love to learn about any other year long challenges that are running!

DGRachel @BarbaraBB and @Librarybelle are hosting #readingafrica2022. I‘m almost done with #readingasia2021 and it has been so great that I‘m totally doing Africa next year. 3y
Soubhiville I‘ll be joining on reading Africa and always #AuthorAMonth. 3y
sebrittainclark #LitsyAtoZ and #BookspinBingo are my favorite litsy challenges 3y

Best feeling. 3y
bthegood I have joined in on a couple of the book clubs - which motivates me to finish by a “due“ date - Classic Books is #ThatsClassic hosted by @Annie1215 Agatha Christie book club is #AgathaChristieClubR2 hosted by @ferskner and Stephen King book club #LosersClub hosted by @mynameisacolour - there are more book clubs (these are just the ones I've participated in) - 😊 3y

Liz_M @Butterfinger What is BBRC? There are too many posts to scroll back to find the original 😊 3y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa I will post a new #nonfiction2022 reading bingo card very soon. And I read with #SheSaid every month, which are all books written by women and mostly nonfiction, with a few fiction thrown in once in awhile. I also read with #StarWarsBuddyRead which is reading the new cannon Star Wars books, and with #PratchettPosse which is reading Terry Pratchett‘s books in publication order, and #ShakespeareReadAlong which is working it‘s way through the plays 3y
Butterfinger @Liz_M Babies and Beyond Reading Challenge. You read picture books (titles start A to Z), leveled readers, middle grade prompts, young adult prompts, adult prompts, and prompts for a mixture of all ages. It runs from July to June. @LibrarianRyan is the organizer. 3y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I'll be doing #booked2022 #foodandlit some #authoramonth #sundaybuddyread #thatsclassic and I'm looking forward to two others that aren't rooted in Litsy but have some participants here, The 52 Book Club & Pop Sugar Reading Challenge, whose prompts haven't been announced yet. 3y
Singout #nonfiction2022 that @Riveted_Reader_Melissa organizes is excellent! 3y

If you are going to write a novel to teach virtues, make sure it is like this gem. I need to stop aggravating people which I really enjoy doing just like little Maria. I was tickled with the other names -Marmaduke Scarlet and Loveday Minette.

tpixie Yes! What great names & lessons. I would have loved this book as a child! I just finished it, it was a sweet book! 3y

"It is because people think ONLY about their own business, and won't trouble themselves to stand up for the oppressed, nor being the wrong-doer to light."

Anna Sewell knew to stand up for mistreatment.

This book was as amazing now as it was when I was 10.

Mehso-so

A small handmade doll retells her adventures that includes a whaling ship. It was fine until she compared herself to a slave being sold at an auction. That was way too flippant, in my opinion.

TheBookHippie Says a lot to the times, also wow. I think it would be a good format for discussion in how to teach old literature like this. I‘m glad I read it as it‘s on my list of literature to digest gives one pause as to how deeply racism is and has been taught- it‘s just ingrained everywhere. 4y
