I need ideas for non-fiction diverse author, a book by or about an indigenous person or culture, a book by and about a person with mental illness, and a book with a disabled main character. Any recommendations? Feel to recommend any books in general you think would fit here though, I'll take 'em all. Also short stories, as I don't read them. I could for sure have finished this last year, or done a lot of them.
Thanks to karin for posting this so I could steal it! :)
