Ep 100 - Reader Challenge Check In - Our 100th Episode!

For "read a book by a trans author": I read Ninefox Gambit by Yoon Ha Lee.
For "read a graphic novel": I've read 5 graphic novels, but the one I'll mention here is The Divided Earth by Faith Erin Hicks. It's the final book in the Nameless City trilogy and a great sendoff for the series. The Nameless City is my go-to recommendation for young comic book readers, but it's a fun read for adults as well.

For the translated book, I read Hex by Thomas Olde Heuvelt (translated by Nancy Forest-Flier), and Waking Lions by Ayelet Gundar-Goshen (translated by Sondra Silverston). Thanks to World Book Day, I have 9 other translated titles loaded onto my kindle.
For the graphic novel: I’m currently reading Umbrella Academy: the Apocalypse Suite by Gerard Way (writer) Gabriel Bá (artist) and Dave Stuart (colorist). I also plan to read The Adventure Zone: Murder on the Rockport Limited once it comes out.
Finally; I chose “The Lady from the Black Lagoon” as my non-fiction book. I had no idea who Milicent Patrick was since I had never seen the Creature from the Black Lagoon. I have some Mary Roach books on my TBR as well for this category.

EDIT: Sooooo my friend just reminded me of this awesome thing called Google, and I found the link! Here it is for all the other fellow lazy people out there! https://www.maximumfun.org/reading-gl...
