Reading in 2020 Vision

Last year I was actually able to meet all 24 of Book Riot's 2019 Read Harder challenges, so I figured why not try for it again in 2020? And unlike for 2019, most of the 2020 challenges actually sounded interesting and potentially like actual challenges.

Due to the global pandemic, I read a lot more e-books than usual, which made some of the challenges based on page numbers a little more tricky as "pages" in e-books can be more or fewer than the same book in print. So I tried to base my titles for those challenges on what the print book length was in my library's catalog record.

Once again, my book tastes include children's, teen, graphic, and audio book titles. Every one of those is a valid reading choice, and I have no interest in those who want to argue otherwise. In fact, in some cases, those were requirements of the challenge!

As always, I link to my LibraryThing reviews of each book; click on the titles for more on my thoughts and feelings for each title. Just because I include a title here does not mean I enjoyed it and/or recommend it.

Some titles would fit into multiple categories but I tried as much as possible to contain them to one "best fit" category. However, I did put multiple titles under some challenges if they fit the category and were not used elsewhere.

In the end, I was able to meet 23 of the 24 categories, a respectable achievement even if not a perfect one. For most of the categories, I actually read several titles that fit that challenge. For the one challenge I didn't meet and for the titles that were more of a stretch, I'm not overly concerned because most of these challenges were ones I had done already in the past and will likely do again in the future; it just wasn't in the cards for this year. 

While overall I enjoyed doing this challenge again this year, I'm not sure that I will do it again next year. There are already so many reading commitments on my plate between book clubs and awards committee work, and this sometimes feels like another assignment, leaving me with no time to read books entirely for personal enjoyment and no other reason/deadline.

Without any further ado, here are the 24 challenges and the titles I read to meet them in 2020.

1. Read a YA nonfiction book
Super You is one of those stretch books; the author's introduction says it is for teens to women in their 40s, which is a pretty big range.

2. Read a retelling of a classic of the canon, fairytale, or myth by an author of color
On Beauty is a loose retelling of E.M. Forster's Howards End for the new millennium, with a cast consisting largely of Black characters. More to the Story is a middle-grade novel that is a modern retelling of Little Women with a group of Pakistani-American sisters. Pippa Park Raises Her Grade is another middle-grade book; this one loosely uses the framework of Great Expectations to structure its narrative of a Korean-American girl trying to fit in. A Song Below Water features two Black teenaged protagonist who live in an America where mythical creatures such as sirens exist, but those mythos are often different from the traditional ones; for instance, being an eloko makes one beloved rather than feared.

3. Read a mystery where the victim(s) is not a woman
Blue Monday by Nicci French is perhaps a bit of a stretch book as well; the description said it was about a missing male child, but the prologue opens up on a missing female child.

 4. Read a graphic memoir

5. Read a book about a natural disaster

6. Read a play by an author of color and/or queer author

7. Read a historical fiction novel not set in WWII
Set in the 1st century AD, the 1960s, the 1950s, and the 1980s, respectively. I'm not sure if I'm ready to accept the 1980s as "historical fiction," but if the shoe fits...

8. Read an audiobook of poetry
  • Shout by Laurie Halse Anderson 

9. Read the LAST book in a series
Hush Hush is the twelfth book in a series and there appear to be no other books in that series since this title's publication in 2015. So it seems to fit the bill here, although this is one of those 'letter of the law, not spirit of the law' situations because I believe the idea behind this prompt to finally finish a series you had started rather than accidentally picking up the last book in a series, as happened here. Murder at an Irish Christmas is the most recent (October 2020) book of the Murder in an Irish... series but it won't actually be the last forever, as there is Murder in an Irish Bookshop scheduled for release in February 2021.

 10. Read a book that takes place in a rural setting It seems like Book Riot is considering things set in small towns as "rural" as well, so this challenge was not as difficult as I thought it might be. These are set in small towns in these places, respectively:
  • Norway (a remote mountain village is the tableau for this tale)
  • Alaska (a town with a small population is the reason for this true tale)
  • Ireland/Indiana/Ohio (being in a small town plays a big role in these mysteries)
  • Ireland (same as above)
  • Minnesota (the woods and preserving them are a central part of this book)
  • Vermont (a dairy farm is the setting for the majority of this book)
  • Florida/Montana (nature, particularly wild and endangered animals, are critical to this story)
  • New Mexico (NM being a U.S. territory at the time plays a significant role in the plot)
  • Vermont? (a hobby farm is featured in this story; I don't think a specific location is ever given but the author lives in Vermont so I assume it was set there)
  • Sweden (assorted farms, forests, and other rural places are the backdrop for this magic story)

11. Read a debut novel by a queer author

12. Read a memoir by someone from a religious tradition (or lack of religious tradition) that is not your own The C.S. Lewis books are actually quotations-style books, not strictly memoirs. But many of the quotations are direct from his more autobiographical books. Those are some real streeeetch ones. Pure is part memoir, part interviews, and part statistics -- all compelling.

 13. Read a food book about a cuisine you’ve never tried before
This is maybe one of those stretch books, as the BookRiot recommendations for this challenge all seem to be nonfiction rather than a YA anthology of magical realism. But food was a big part of this book and it embraced several cuisines that I wasn't well-versed in previously.

 14. Read a romance starring a single parent

15. Read a book about climate change
After reading Wilder Girls, which was on Book Riot's suggested list for this challenge, I realized that "about climate change" was also being very loosely defined and therefore included The Last Man, which I had read earlier in 2020 but not specifically for this challenge.

 16. Read a doorstopper (over 500 pages) published after 1950, written by a woman
The hardcover edition is 496 pages while the paperback edition is 512 pages. So maybe cutting it close there, but I think it still counts. I ran out of time to read the book I initially intended to read here. It awaits me in the future...

 17. Read a sci-fi/fantasy novella (under 120 pages)

18. Read a picture book with a human main character from a marginalized community
The communities are Jewish (times three), LGBT, Central American immigrants, Black/Asian immigrant families, and Black respectively. 

19. Read a book by or about a refugee
I was actually in the middle of reading The Night Diary already when I noticed it was on Book Riot's suggestions for this challenge ... lucky coincidence for me. The others I read later in the year also by coincidence. (Well, I intentionally read them all, but had another reason for reading them beyond this challenge.)

20. Read a middle grade book that doesn’t take place in the U.S. or the UK
Listen, Slowly is set in Vietnam.

21. Read a book with a main character or protagonist with a disability (fiction or non)
The three Shane Burcaw books are nonfiction about the author's life with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Penguin Days is a fictional book that features a protagonist on the autism spectrum (because this challenge appears to be including neurodiversity and mental illness under the umbrella of "disability"). 

 22. Read a horror book published by an indie press

23. Read an edition of a literary magazine (digital or physical)
  • Done in the past and likely to do in the future but was not done in 2020

24. Read a book in any genre by a Native, First Nations, or Indigenous author

Reading Harder in 2019

So at the end of last year, I said I probably wouldn't continue on with the 2019 "Read Harder" challenge from Book Riot because I wasn't that thrilled with the guideposts set for this year. However, very quickly into the first week of January, I realized I was already reading books that fit some of the categories. Well, once the game was afoot like that, I knew I was hooked. Every time I thought I was out, they pulled me back in. (Okay, I'm done with random book/movie quotes now.)

I still maintain that some of this year's prompts are just plain dumb (Goodreads reviews are meaningless to me, for example), but some of them are interesting. Being a voracious reader of all types of books over many years, I think I have managed to read something that fits each of these categories before, but it's still fun to try out a challenge for the year.

Once again, my book tastes include children's, YA, graphic, and audio book titles. Every one of those is a valid reading choice, and I have no interest in those who want to argue otherwise. As always, I link to my LibraryThing reviews of each book; click on the titles for more on my thoughts and feelings for each title. Just because I include a title here does not mean I enjoyed it and/or recommend it.

 Some titles would fit into multiple categories but I tried as much as possible to contain them to one "best fit" category. However, I did put multiple titles under some challenges if they fit the category and were not used elsewhere.

In the end, I was able to meet all 24 of the 24 categories, which is the first time I've hit every mark with this challenge. And with time to spare! Helps to start early, me thinks.

Without any further ado, here are the 24 challenges and the titles I read to meet them in 2019.

1. An epistolary novel or collection of letters

2. An alternate history novel
An alternate World War II is in both books, although it's a smaller subplot within the latter as opposed to being the whole basis for the former. 


3. A book by a woman and/or AOC (Author of Color) that won a literary award in 2018

4. A humor book
North by Northwest is not actually a book but a recording of a stand-up routine. However, I found it my library's audiobook collection and, hey, what are books but storytelling anyway? I'm counting it. Especially because Does This Beach Make Me Look Fat? was supposedly a humor book, but wasn't actually funny! Feminasty was a humor book but is one of those 'laughing-so-we-don't-cry' types of comedy. 
5. A book by a journalist or about journalism
By a journalist, and about journalism. 


6. A book by an AOC set in or about space
This is one of those "streeeetch" books. The main character is obsessed with astronomy and rocket science in particular. He does go to a rocket festival and meet folks with similar interests. He even has a dog named Carl Sagan, named after the person he repeatedly refers to as his "hero." However, it takes place here on Earth and is about a lot of down-to-earth problems.


7. An #ownvoices book set in Mexico or Central America
The book never really specifies where it's set beyond "the city." I presumed that references Mexico City, where the author was born and currently lives.


8. An #ownvoices book set in Oceania
This book is set primarily in New Zealand, with brief forays into Australia and Papua New Guinea.


9. A book published prior to January 1, 2019, with fewer than 100 reviews on Goodreads
I get that the idea is to the read an under-the-radar book instead of a buzzed about one (pardon my mixed metaphors), but I still think this is a dumb “challenge.” Who cares about Goodreads reviews?

In the end, I included one book just to tick this challenge off, but it was literally the one and only book I read this year that I bothered to look at the Goodreads number for (and I merely glanced at the number of reviews, didn't bother to read any). I was reading this book anyway at the time I decided to look at the Goodreads number, so it's not like this prompt actually challenged me in any way, shape, or form. What a waste of a "challenge."

And, for all I know, plenty of other books I read this year would have fit into this non-challenge. I just didn't care enough to look up any other titles via Goodreads.


 10. A translated book written by and/or translated by a woman
Written by a woman, and translated by a woman.


11. A book of manga
A manga series I actually like! Who knew? Not me, if I hadn't done this challenge!


12. A book in which an animal or inanimate object is a point-of-view character
Yup, I'm using the same series for two categories. Oh well. At least I am using different volumes. Chi is an adorable kitten who is the protagonist of this manga series.

Fox 8 was on Book Riot's list of recommended titles for this challenge and it sounded interesting to me, but it's worth noting that it's actually a short story, not a full-length book or even a novella. 
13. A book by or about someone that identifies as neurodiverse
In his memoir, Eddie Izzard discusses his dyslexia, amongst many other topics. As a nice compare and contrast, Fish in a Tree is a fictional account of a schoolgirl with dyslexia, written by an author was says "my own life inspired the story. Although I’ve never been tested for dyslexia, I have been suspicious that I have at least a touch of it. I was in the lowest reading group in grades one through six."

The Kiss Quotient is a romance novel with a protagonist who has Asperger syndrome; the author is also on the autism spectrum. Superstar is a middle-grade novel about a child on the autism spectrum; Rules also features a child with a diagnosis of autism, although he is the protagonist's younger brother.


14. A cozy mystery

15. A book of mythology or folklore

16. An historical romance by an AOC

17. A business book
I would not have thought of this as a "business book" (my mind conjured up tomes about how to run a corporation), but I'm glad that Book Riot had it on their suggested list because I loved it and told many other folks about the story it contained. 


18. A novel by a trans or nonbinary author
Technically, it's a book of short stories, rather than a novel. But it's still fiction, so I think it's close enough for this challenge.


19. A book of nonviolent true crime
I would not have thought of this book as a "true crime" book if I had picked it up independently, but Book Riot listed it as a suggestion for this prompt. It sounded interesting -- and it was!


20. A book written in prison
This was a bit of a stretch because she was out of prison when it was written, but she does discuss her time there, so I'm counting it as a close enough.
21. A comic by an LGBTQIA creator

22. A children’s or middle grade book (not YA) that has won a diversity award since 2009
  • Fish in a Tree by Lynda Mullaly Hunt (2016 Schneider Family Book Award Winner)
  • A Moon for Moe and Mo by Jane Breskin Zalben (2018 Sydney Taylor Book Award Honor Book for Younger Readers)

23. A self-published book

24. A collection of poetry published since 2014
This children's poetry anthology was published in 2018.


Here's to happy reading ahead in 2020!

Still Trying to "Read Harder"

Previously I aimed to work on Book Riot's "Read Harder" challenges, not quite reaching the 24 goals for either 2015 or 2016. (2017 was a bit of a whirlwind year apparently and I never even looked at the list, let alone attempted it.) This year, I looked at the "tasks" list very late in the game (November!!), but decided to give it a go anyhow. Granted, my reading for 2018 was already constrained by running/belonging to three book clubs and being a reader for a children's book award nominating committee, but I figured all of that reading had to help meet some of Book Riot's tasks for this year! Granted, that may not be how the makers of this challenge meant for this to work, but that's how I'm making it work this year. :)

As always, my reading tastes include children's, YA, graphic novel, and audiobook titles. (Sorry not sorry if you think any of those aren't 'really' reading.) Several books could have fit in more than one category, but I tried to contain them to one 'best fit' category. For each book, I link to my LibraryThing review of it. Inclusion of a book here does NOT mean that I necessarily liked that book, only that it met the parameters of each task.

For the final tally, 19 out of 24 isn't so bad, especially considering that I've read books that met most of the other categories in the past. I will admit to a bit of a reach with some of my titles here, but I'm okay with that.

Hope you find something good to read here!

1. A book published posthumously

2. A book of true crime
The first is a graphic 'novel' about an unsolved murder committed in the 1920s around the area of New Brunswick, New Jersey. The second is part travelogue, part true crime as it concerns a murder that took places in the 1990s among the storied homes of Savannah, Georgia. 

3. A classic of genre fiction (i.e. mystery, sci fi/fantasy, romance)
These are both mystery books written by the dame of the genre for her "Miss Marple" series.

4. A comic written and drawn by the same person
Several others fit this category but are listed in other categories already. 

5. A book set in or about one of the five BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, or South Africa)
These two books are about a Chinese/Chinese-American family and take place in China, then the US, and then back in China again as we follow the family through the generations.

6. A book about nature

7. A western
  • Didn't make one in this year but have in the past.

8. A comic written or drawn by a person of color
This manga is written *and* drawn by Nana Yaa, who I think is of African origin (based on her name and her hand-drawn author's 'photo' in the book). 

9. A book of colonial or postcolonial literature
Book Riot's definition of postcolonial literature is pretty broad, so I think this one fits. Full disclosure: I began reading this book in 2017 but finished it in 2018, so I'm counting it here.

10. A romance novel by or about a person of color
This book is many things (YA, adventure, scifi, etc.) but at the core is the romantic feelings the protagonist has towards his best friend, an English born man of African descent. It's a bit of stretch to put here, but I'm hoping better than nothing. Romance is really not my genre.

11. A children’s classic published before 1980
The Ghost of Windy Hill was published in 1968; I'm not sure if it's really a "classic" given how it's hard to find nowadays, but my sister and I both loved it growing up. 

I went through a Sendak phase this year and read several of his books (whether he was the author and/or the illustrator) that I never read as a child. There were some titles that were actually more recent than 1980. Then going backwards from that date, Some Swell Pup originates from 1976. In the Night Kitchen was originally published in 1970; Higglety Pigglety Pop! in 1967; Alligators All Around, One Was Johnny, and Pierre in 1962; The Sign on Rosie's Door in 1960; The Moon Jumpers in 1959; What Do You Say, Dear? in 1958; and A Hole Is to Dig in 1952. 

Katy No-Pocket is from 1973. Where the Sidewalk Ends was another childhood favorite and was originally published in 1974.

12. A celebrity memoir

13. An Oprah Book Club selection

14. A book of social science
With this title, the social science in question is political science.

15. A one-sitting book
Several others fit this category but are listed in other categories already. I chose not to include short children's books (e.g., picture books and early readers) here as that seemed self-evident. 

16. The first book in a new-to-you YA or middle grade series
The adventures continue with The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy and The Gentleman’s Guide to Getting Lucky.

17. A sci fi novel with a female protagonist by a female author
  • Didn't make one in this year but have in the past.

18. A comic that isn’t published by Marvel, DC, or Image
These are respectively published by: 
  • Graphix 
  • Dark Horse
  • Charmz/Papercutz
  • Archie Comics
  • Penny Farthing 
  • Graphix (again)
  • Dark Horse (again)
  • NBM Publishing
  • First Second
  • Boom! Box
  • Top Shelf Productions
  • Boom! Box (again)
  • Z2 Comics
  • Flying Eye Books
  • Great Beast Comics
  • Action Lab Entertainment 
  • Oni Press
  • Graphix (for the third time)
  • Dark Horse (for the third time)
  • KaBOOM!
  • Roaring Brook Press
  • Knopf Books for Young Readers
  • NBM Publishing (again)
  • Dark Horse (for the final time)
  • NBM/Papercutz
Several others fit this category but are listed in other categories already. 

19. A book of genre fiction in translation
This is a work of historical fiction in translation (from Spanish to English). 

20. A book with a cover you hate
  • There are covers that don't seem to match the book and there are covers that disappoint by whitewashing, but this seems more arbitrary than "harder." I think the challenge's architects were trying to get readers outside of their comfort zone and to actually not judge a book by its cover, but this one struck me as silly and I had no interest in doing this one.

21. A mystery by a person of color or LGBTQ+ author
  • Did not get to this one, which is particularly unfortunate because I do love mysteries.

22. An essay anthology
These are both less of an "anthology" and more a literary criticism, but I'm going to call it as a "close enough."

23. A book with a female protagonist over the age of 60

24. An assigned book you hated (or never finished)
  • Again, I wasn't thrilled with this prompt. The idea I assume is to re-visit something you didn't like originally and see how you feel about it now. I just don't have the time or interest anymore to tackle something I already disliked once. Plus, I've done this in the past when books like A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man that showed up in both my high school and college curricula. 

Book Riot has posted the 2019 challenge, and I'm honestly not that thrilled by many of the prompts. Again, there seems to be an arbitrariness to some of them (Why is 2014 a magic date? Who cares about the number of Goodreads reviews?) that I dislike. With so many other things on my plate (book-wise and otherwise), I think I'll probably end up skipping next year's challenge.

*Began in 2018 but did not finish before year end

Zimmerli Art Museum: A Tardis Treasure Trove

Yesterday my niece and I took a trip to the Jane Voorhees Zimmerli Art Museum. It was a first time visit for my niece and easily the 20th time I’ve been there. After having been there so many times, I usually just drop by for special events or new exhibits. Because of this, I’ve forgotten just how many great works of art are on display there. My niece and I did the quick fly by for most things (we were in and out of the museum in about 40 minutes so most things got a really quick passing by) and spent a bit more time on two newer exhibits – Popcorn & Starbaby: Children’s Book Illustrations by Frank Asch and Cast Me Not Away: Soviet Photograph in the 1980s. I enjoyed the range of everyday life photos on display in the Cast Me Not Away exhibit; the children’s book illustrations were not as exciting as some others I’ve seen there (most notably, the amazing cut paper illustrations by Takayo Noda that need to be seen in 3D to truly appreciate them and the special event where author Mary Shaw and illustrator Sue Agin explained how they came to develop the concept for and publish their children’s book Pierre & Sophia). The two Frank Asch books presented were cute little stories, but I didn’t really see any added benefit of seeing the illustrations framed and hung on a wall rather than just being viewed in the pages of the book. Maybe it’s just me.

Here are my niece’s thoughts on the trip:

Well, since she’s a baby, she can’t really say. So here’s what I inferred from her reactions:

- The children’s book illustrations exhibit did not excite her too much either, which is a bit funny considering this exhibit was the reason I took her to the museum. She spent a good deal of the time watching me reading the story to her instead of looking at the illustrations at all. Toward the end she got a bit fussy as if done with this room. Then I sat her down a stool where the museum staff had a few coloring/drawing pages set out related to the books. She was very excited to scrunch up a piece a paper in one hand and hold a colored pencil in the other one. (She has a very good grip on crayons/colored pencils/etc. but isn’t really interested when I try to show how to color.)

- She wasn’t very interested the Cast Me Not Away exhibit either. She didn’t really look at the photos much but instead looked down on the floor in that room as though she wanted to crawl around on it. (Not that I let her!)

- However, she did like: the stained glass pieces found in a small corridor; sculpture in the European art section (the Figaro sculpture was particularly interesting); Pre-Colombian ceramics (having seen these many times, I was going to walk right past them but she turned her head this way and that to look at them all so I slowed down so she could take them in); a video on spindle fires in the Estonian art exhibit (I had only stayed for a moment on this one and started to walk away but she gave her I’m-not-a-happy-baby-with-that-decision grunt, so we went back and watched the whole thing); and any room with high ceilings and lots of lights that she could look up at in wonder. Well, with that last one, I examined some of the architecture of the building that I never noticed before in all the times I had been there. Understandably, as a baby, she was much more interested in anything that was more three-dimensional than flat. But, overall, she seemed quite interested in the museum and gave me a look that seemed to say, where on earth did you bring me?

As I noted earlier, this was by no means the first trip I’ve taken to Zimmerli. Just last month, a friend and I stopped by briefly for the current exhibit Jolan Gross-Bettelheim: An American Printmaker in an Age of Progress. Prior to our visit, Deb had found this review from The New York Times, which gives a pretty good overview of the exhibit as well as some questions to consider. We both liked that the exhibit was set up chronologically so that the viewer could easily see the artist’s progress over the years, especially as she re-visited themes or similar visuals. However, we both thought it would have been helpful if the exhibit had explained a bit more on the technical details, such as the difference between lithograph and drypoint prints. (For the record, here’s the Wikipedia articles on both: Lithography and Drypoint.) Personally, I liked that the prints very much had the feel of Works Progress Era art.

While we were there, we also stopped in another current exhibit, A View of Caring: Johnson & Johnson/International Center of Photography Fellowship Exhibition. While this marries two things near my heart (social justice and fine arts), we both felt it functioned as a giant advertising scheme for Johnson & Johnson. That’s not to say there weren’t some fantastic photographs included in the exhibit (such as the one of Irish school children playing seen in the link above), but it just seemed a bit odd and out of place.

We also made a short trip into the museum store where I noticed that one of my favorite professor’s in graduate school has a book out (Visible Writings: Cultures, Forms, Readings), which sounds interesting. I also stumbled upon a notecard print of a painting by James Tissot that I found appealing. I had never heard of Tissot before so I looked him when I came home and found that he has a wealth of beautiful paintings. (Check out the gallery of his works found here.) Here is the painting that called out to me at the store:

Source: Wikimedia Commons

For some reason I can’t quite recall, I mentioned to Deb another special exhibit I had seen at the Zimmerli museum some time ago – Lalla Essaydi: Les Femmes du Maroc. This was such a great exhibit that I felt the need to mention it here as well. If you ever get a chance to see Ms. Essaydi’s works, I recommend it without hesitation. Granted, they are probably more interesting to those with a bit of an art history background, but they are so good that I would recommend them for anyone. (Plus, to be honest, I don’t have that much of an art history background, and I could enjoy them wholeheartedly!)

I could go on and on about exciting and interesting exhibits I’ve seen at the Zimmerli Art Museum, but I’ll end with one last event that I went to a few months ago. The first Wednesday of every month (excepting August when the museum is closed), Zimmerli hosts “Art After Hours,” an event in which the museum stays open late and offers a myriad of art-related activities. In the past, I have been to Art After Hours events featuring children’s illustrators speaking on their craft; the viewing of avant garde films; open-mic poetry; and so on. The Art After Hours that I most recently attended was a night dedicated to Estonian art. It began with a curator-led tour of the current exhibit Mystics and Moderns: Painting in Estonia before Glasnost, moved on to a violin/cello/piano concert of Estonian music, and ended with a viewing of the documentary film, The Singing Revolution. If you can find it, definitely check out this film. (It is supposed to be airing on PBS some time this year.) It was excellently done with a can’t-be-beat true story at the heart of it. Chances are good that you’ll walk away having learned something from it. If not, at the very least, you’ll walk away being inspired by it.

It probably goes without saying at this point, but here goes. If you ever find yourself in the New Brunswick area looking for something to do, I’m highly recommending that you stop by the Zimmerli Art Museum for a visit.
