Their Eyes Were Watching God | Zora Neale Hurston

Thanks to the marvelous recommendation from the witty and charming @shawnmooney aka "Shawn the Book Maniac" I've chosen to read TEWWG as my #classicByaPOC for #ReadHarderChallenge #StillHaveFourMonthsToGo @RachelO so I'm now in the midst of reading 4 books #readingADD

TrishB I can never read more than one at a time! 7y

jbhops I really enjoyed Their Eyes Were Watching God. I'm not a huge fan of the classics, but this one was excellent. 7y

Cinfhen Oh, good to know @jbhops @gibblr I'm not generally a fan of classics either 🙉 7y

Cinfhen If I'm reading multiple books @TrishB it means nothing is holding my attention 😝 7y

Chelleo One of my favorite books. May be time to reread it. 7y

shawnmooney Woo hoo! Hope you enjoy‼️😘😘 7y

Cortg I just put this on hold for a patron at work the other day. I'll have to check it out! 7y

Reviewsbylola Great book! It was assigned reading for me in college. 7y

Cinfhen Are you a librarian @Cortg ?!? 7y

Cortg A librarian without a masters, but yes, I work at the reference desk and do programming. Hoping to go back and get my masters someday. 7y

emilyhaldi I need to read this one some day too! So many books, such little time 😫 7y

rockpools 👏👏👏You are storming through the challenges now! And there *are* #still4monthstogo. Well, 3 1/2 but who's counting?, and I'm sure I change that hashtag every time I type it. As for reading chaos, I'm in the middle of about 7 atm (!) which is not good 📚📚📚 7y

Read Harder | Heidi Julavits, Ed Park

... and 7 to go on the #ReadHarder challenge. This one I am going to complete. Somehow!! It's the first year I've tried this, and it's definitely made me try different things.

I have most of what I need planned now - apart from 'Books banned/challenged in your country". For banned in the UK, it's probably between Spycatcher, Lady Chatterley or Radclyffe Hall, none of which are particularly grabbing me. Maybe I need to try challenged books...?

Leniverse Well, there's The Anarchist's Cook Book, but I believe that's still banned so you might not want to risk it! Then there's "Lord Horror" by David Britton. The last book to be banned under the Obscene Publications Act (could be hard to come by as it was never republished after the ban was overturned). Ok, I'm not helping here, am I... ? 7y

Leniverse Ok, how about

The Well Of Loneliness

rockpools @Leniverse 🤣Well, you've given me options I hadn't thought of! 😂Don't think I really want to get arrested in the cause though... And as I avoid even mild horror, that might be more 'challenging' than I'm up for! TWOL is definitely the front-runner at the moment. 7y
