This is the third day of the More Diverse Universe blog fest, celebrating the works of speculative fiction authors of color. The full schedule can be found here at Aarti's blog (she's one of the fabulous organizers), BookLust, and I have already added several new to me books of wonderful sounding-ness to my reading list....
I'll be chiming in tomorrow with the book that I think is the first ever middle grade spec. fic. novel written in the US that has, as its main character, an African-American girl...
I'll look for your post tomorrow. I've seen a couple of posts around mentioning this event, and I think it's awesome. If it happens again, I'll definitely have to get involved.
ReplyDeleteThe first? Wow.
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying this event.
Woot! I'm really enjoying this, and will check back to yours.
ReplyDeleteTHIS should be a yearly event; I hope Aarti does it again and more of the Kidlitosphere participates.
