Year of the Asian Reading Challenge

[mylittlecthulhu]

I haven’t joined reading challenges in awhile, and Kevin kept talking about The Year of Asian Reading Challenge and I thought, (1) it sounds like fun and something up my alley anyway, (2) I need something to take my mind off Arashi’s impending hiatus, and (3) WHY NOT.

So I’m joining! And because one of my favourite animals is the Malayan Tapir I’m going to go with that level XD (Plus I have a personal goal of reading as many YA queer lit as possible this year, too. Is there a challenge for that? Point me to it!)

These are the titles I plan to read, although of course I may change my mind at any time and edit the list (titles I’ve read will be in bold, and will be linked to my review if I’ve written one):
