So I’m participating in a month-long event that focuses on reading diversely, and the goal is to fill one row (horizontally, vertically, diagonally) on the bingo sheet (see below) by reading one book per prompt on during the month of December. Winners will get entered in a giveaway for a free book. You can learn more here and follow the buzz on this event by looking at the #DiversityDecBingo hashtag on Twitter. Below is the Bingo Board and my list of books I’ll be reading for each prompt. I’m feeling ambitious, so I’m aiming to get a blackout, or as close as possible. I’ll link my review for each book on this post once I post it.

If you need help finding books for this challenge, check out the books in my review index and my TBR list because basically all of them fulfill one or more of the prompts.
