GLBT Challenge 2010 12/03/2009
![]() Here's one more awesome challenge for 2010. The GLBT Challenge is one I thought would fit in nicely with some other challenges as overlapping is allowed. So, since I know I'm reading more Audre Lorde for the Women Unbound challenge and I have other books I haven't read yet on my shelves, it's a go. Anyway, I'm going for the Lambda level which is four books and am open to more. The challenge runs the full year. This is no more than a prospective list of what I might read: Zami by Audre Lorde Go Tell It On the Mountain by James Baldwin Tommy's Tale by Alan Cumming The Other Side of Paradise: A Memoir by Staceyann Chin I already own the first three and probably have a few more that would qualify. Suggestions are welcome. Of course, all should know by now that I prefer authors of color. And, yes, I know Alan Cumming is not a POC. That selection is another story. As you can see, I made a button too. If you're joining and want to use it, feel free to save it to your server and link to the challenge site. ![]() CommentsLOVE your button! :) I'm doing the challenge, and I'll definitely be using it. If you need suggestions, I put together a book list that includes 15 fiction books by POC authors and 2 or 3 POC nonfiction.

I am huge fan of Audre Lorde's work! Zami is a very good read! Go Tell It on the Mountain has been on my TBR list for a while now.
