The Disability Reading Challenge was created by Geetanshi Sharma to encourage those at any stage to learn more about disability justice and culture by reading diverse and intersectional books by disabled authors. The March prompt for the #DisabilityReadingChallenge2025 is “a book by a queer and disabled author.” We will be partnering with Geetanshi to host this month’s book discussion on The Spirit Bares Its Teeth by Andrew Joseph White, a historical Young Adult gothic novel about conforming to Victorian society.
