[close] Ann Morgan considered herself very well read until she took a look at her bookshelf and realised she is a “book xenophobe”. Most of her books were limited to a small selection of countries, which triggered her plan to read a book from every UN recognised country. Her plan was to read one hundred and ninety-six books in a year, although this group exists to spread horizons without the time limit. This group exists to keep track of your progress in reading books from around the world, along with existing as a means to help other readers find interesting books to complete their challenge. Give the challenge a try – you’ll be surprised by how many countries you still need to read!
