Maybe the lives of the people in the books aren't diverse, though?

If you're writing about a New Hampshire farm kid in 1950, you're probably not going to have a racially diverse setting.

OTOH, if you're writing about a group of people in a US Army platoon in 2021 (or 1981) it would be completely oddball if everybody was white.

Then again, though cities are diverse, not every single group of (F)riends has a friend that's not white or not straight. Which reminds me that Happy Endings was a better show, IMO.

Ok, but in cases like this book, where the author creates the world and creates the ethnicities within them, there's not really a setting reason not to have a diverse cast unless you create one. And then there's the question on why you created it a certain way

[(Anonymous)]

In which case they maybe shouldn't have used so many words, terms and names from a country which has mostly white and Eurasian people and then expect people to not picture, say, half the cast as black (because let's be real, "diverse" means black in Hollywood woke).
