The City of Death by Sarwat Chadda

2nd Annual Diversity Month Day 8- Author Interview with Sarwat Chadda +Kindle Fire 6" and Book Giveaway!

So there are just books that resonate with you all year right? My sister and I are always looking for that one book(or two, or 3)we just want to spend the whole year bragging about and for Guinevere, The Savage Fortress by Sarwat Chadda was it. We pretty much spent the entire year telling everyone how amazing this book was and how you pretty much need it in your life, so we were happy when we were able to secure a spot for Sarwat on our Diversity Month to finally and formally introduce him on our oh so humble Book Blog.

This bloke is pretty much knee deep in diversity!

Review: The Savage Fortress by Sarwat Chadda

The Savage Fortress by Sarwat Chadda

So Libby is immersing herself in the world that is "Percy Jackson." Have to say Im a little jealous, because she knows Im a big fantasy buff, especially with the YA category. While Im attracted to the series, what steers me from it for the time being, is that it takes until the "Heroes of Olympus" for characters of color to be a main focus.

Week Four of OUR Favorites, Day Three :Favorite Authors- Sarwat Chadda + Ellen Oh's Prophecy/Warrior & Sarwat Chadda's The Savage Fortress/The City of Death giveaway!

It's so hard to believe we're nearly done with our favorites for the month!

 Each week has been a blast, and it'll be sad once the month is over, but hopefully anyone reading will have walked away with a bunch of new blogs, books and authors to take away from our event of Twinja Monthly Favorites!

Today holds especially dear to me. I've only recently discovered this author, through Libby's online searching(after being held captive by The Percy Jackson series). Upon looking for a series that dealt with Gods and Goddesses, but through the eyes of a character of color.

I've nearly devoured the series since then, and became an instant fan. I was so excited about this author's book, I wanted to tell everyone!

Which leads us today's favorite:
