#QueerBC
blurb
Lauredhel
Reading Challenge | Lesley Yates
post image

I've signed up for three 2025 #readingchallenges already, and it's not even December! #WickedWords is a given of course if it's running, #ISpyBingo I very much enjoy, and I like the look of the prompts for #booklistqueenchallenge25 too. And I'll be running Four Fours again, hashtagged #fourfoursin25 this time.

What are you thinking of signing up for? Or running?

OriginalCyn620 I totally dropped the ball with this year‘s Pantone challenge, but if it comes back for 2025, I will do better! 🤪 20h

PuddleJumper I completely forgot about the Pantone challenge. #Roll100 #GottaCatchemAll #QueerBC will continue in 2025. I've also got a prompt maze #FrozenSick which is a whenever thing and #ReadYourDamnDanmei I think that's all 20h
Lauredhel @OriginalCyn620 I've just starting yoinking colours for a #pantone2025 colour chart, so if no one else steps up to do it, it will still be happening! 18h
Lauredhel @PuddleJumper OMG so many to explore! 18h
Jas16 I think that 2025 is going to be a challenge free year for me. 18h
Lauredhel @Jas16 enjoy your reading! 18h
AmyG I am only doing a challenge that requires books I own. It‘s out of control over here. 🤣 So….Bookspin, Author-a-Month if I have the author, TBR Tarot. My only exception to my rule is the Sunday Buddy Read. 17h
Enchanted_Bibliophile Another one on my 2025 list 🤩 16h
Born.A.Reader @AmyG that's the one I need to do. My owned TBR is soo out of control 😅 15h
thebacklistbook I'm doing a few challenges. For next year I'm still plugging away at read the world, the owls, #fictionaltraveler , and #tbronly2025, I am still deciding about #frozensick . I am of course running my #yuletidereads starting December 21. 15h
willaful Definitely doing BookSpin , QueerBC, and adding Roll100 this year. I love Four Fours! Will continue #BacklistReadathon and #TBRTarot if they're on. And finishing up #192025!

@Jas16 Do what makes you happy!
12h
willaful Oh, I forgot @Faranae's #URC. 12h
Faranae @willaful 😭How could you forget my URC? (😆) 12h
willaful @Faranae I know! I've got a list a mile long of possible prompts! 12h
mariaku21 I'm always game to do Pantone reading @Lauredhel amongst any others but I'm not thinking about 2025. I still have books this year 😭🤣 8h
BookwormAHN I'm not sure how many challenges I'm doing now. I host #StarWarsBuddyRead and I've joined #BookSpin with #ReadOrDonate plus #TBRTarot #LosersClub #AuthorAMonth and a few others however I'd Iike to Pantone again since I usually can match the books I'm already reading and don't usually have to look to hard for them. 4h
Lauredhel @Enchanted_Bibliophile Cool, I haven't seen many others doing Booklist Queen's challenge on Litsy!



@TheBacklistBook Just added #FictionalTraveler to my list. The more the merrier, I can always trim later if I'm not managing.



@willaful #URC I have not heard of before *scuttles off to join* @Faranae 



@mariaku21 @BookwormAHN I'll be organising #Pantone2025 over the next week or so. Stay tuned

This one started off strong, but kind of fizzled after a while. I loved the outsider and monster-as-protagonist angle and the sapphic ace representation in the human/monster relationship. Something about the plot didn't grab me though and I found my mind wandering. I didn't feel especially emotionally engaged with the characters either, though I liked them in theory. Did others in the #QueerBC have similar experiences or am I an outlier here?

Jari-chan I totally get your point, it's how I felt at first too. But at some point the positive aspects outweighed. 2d

A quick read about family secrets, loneliness, and grief. I liked the way the story unfolded, and felt for all of the characters. The emotional power was undeniable.

This book is darker than the cover makes it seem. The characters have to deal with a lot in their lives, but try to move on, not always succeeding, but anyway. I couldn't really tell where this story was going, but liked it in the end. But I had troubles of telling the characters apart and sometimes I wasn't sure whom we were following. But the ending is so touching, that it just cannot not be a Pick.
