The Book Traveling Thursdays meme is created by Danielle at Danielle’s Book Blog and Catia at TheGirlWhoReadTooMuch. Every week you choose a book for your blog post that fits the weekly theme (which you can find in the Goodreads group), you share why you chose that book and finally post picture of the original cover, the covers from your country, your favorite cover, and your least favorite cover.
This week’s topic is dedicated to diversity in books and we have to pick our favorite diverse book. I have shared a lot of my favorite diverse books in the past, so it's really hard to introduce something new and exciting.
This week I'm going to choose "I, Phoolan Devi: The Autobiography of India's Bandit Queen" by Phoolan Devi, because I think I haven't talked about it until now. It's a really heart-breaking story, hard to read at some moments and the story takes place in India, which makes it a little bit diverse.

Original/Least Favorite Cover:
I don't like this cover at all, mostly because of the font and the black background.
Bulgarian Cover:
May I say that the girl is just too happy on this cover. It doesn't fit the story at all.
Alas, I don't have a favorite cover. There are just not so many editions of this book and they all look bad.
If you have a Book Traveling Thursdays blog post, share it in the comments. I would love to check it out :)
Both of these covers are so weird looking! Maybe there's a hidden gem that isn't known? Probably not. ;) I did my Book Traveling Thursdays post about Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon!
ReplyDeleteI really hoped there is one for me to include as a favorite, but I couldn't find any :(
DeleteAw, that's too bad! Hopefully they'll rerelease it in the future with a better cover!
