In this week's episode of the pod, I talk all about the importance of diversifying your reading! What this means, why it matters and some tips onto how you can diversify your own reading.
If you look at the books most commonly recommended to you through Booktube, Instagram or even Tiktok, how many of them are actually just casually written by authors of color? Queer books BY queer authors? Or books with disabled characters? How many of these books do you have on your tbr? And how many are you actually putting in the work to read?
It is so important that we are make an effort to read diversly, not only for ourselves, but also for so many other people who want to find themselves in books. So, in this episode we discuss all of this + some ideas as to how you can diversify your own reading.
