Welcome to the first month of the 2012 Muti-Cultural Book Challenge hosted by KM at One Page At a Time and myself. The goal of this challenge is to highlight the fabulous YA books written by muti-cultural/ethnic minorities OR featuring multi-cultural/ethnic minorities as main characters.
More information on this challenge is located on the challenge page and I have included the sing-up Linky below.
For January, we will feature and give away a signed copy of Living Violet by Jaime Reed. The giveaway is open to residents of the US and Canada. This giveaway is open to everyone but challenge participants get extra entires! To earn extra entries, sign-up for the challenge, post at least one review a month of a YA book that meets the criteria and upload the review link to the Rafflecopter form below (also available on the challenge page). Reviews must be completed and posted during the participating month and you can upload more than one qualifying book review per month.
We are very excited to see the variety of multi-cultural YA books that you will be reading and review for the month!

Hey Truly! (Wouldn't that be an awesome character name??)
I don't ever really realize how many of the characters I read are NOT culturally diverse until something like this makes me think about it. I think this sounds great. Even if I don't participate, I'll be paying more attention to the diversity (or lack of diversity) in my future reads ;) Great idea for a challenge,

Whoohoo can't wait to get started. I'll be back when I've read and reviewed my book.
