![February TBR | #FeministLitFeb + Black History Month [CC]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/POgHRUFEmvw/hqdefault.jpg "February TBR | #FeministLitFeb + Black History Month [CC]
#FeministLitFeb creator:
► ItsJaneLindsey - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfxvVxVNkOM
THE CHALLENGES:
1) Read a book with a feminist protagonist.
2) Read a work of feminist nonfiction.
3) Read a diverse book, preferably own voices (my feminism is intersectional, therefore my reading is intersectional).
4) Read a book by an author who identifies as female, non-binary, or gender fluid.
5) Ask a feminist for a book recommendation, then read it.

• Questions •
1. Name a cartoon(s) that you love
2. What is your favorite song right now?
3. What could you do for hours (that isnt reading)?
4. What is something you love to do that your followers would be surprised by?
5. What is your favorite unnecessarily specific thing to learn about (this can do with books, I guess)?
6. What is something unusual you know how to do?
7. Name something you’ve made in the last year (and show us, if you can)
8. What is your most recent personal project?
9. Tell us something you think about often (maybe while staring out of windows)
10. Give us something thats your favorite, but make it something oddly specific, not like your favorite food, but like your favorite food when you’ve been studying for hours and forgot to eat. Or, you know, something like that
Lastly, say the first thing that pops into your head
