It is the month of May, which also happens to be Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month, and what better a time to diversify your reading than to participate in the Asian Readathon hosted by withcindy?
This is my third year participating in this readathon, and I have had a pretty good time reading books written by Asian authors. This time around, the readathon is loosely based around Everything Everywhere All At Once, which I have been dying to watch.
There are a total of five prompts for this readathon and, if you want an extra challenge, it is recommended that each book you read should feature a character or author of a different ethnicity.
