Try to read books that take place in as many countries as possible. As you do, list the country and then the title of the book. Please list the countries alphabetically, and of course only use 1 book per country.

If you like, you can also keep track visually with a custom-made map (by YOU!) from Big Huge Labs! Just include it in your post!



Challenge Rules:

→ When you sign up for the challenge, please post some kind of a place saver so that I can link you up under the participants.

→ For each book you read, please indicate the title and the date you finished reading it. You may also rate your books if you'd like.

→ You may only use each book for one task in this challenge, but feel free to use the same titles in other challenges!

→ When you complete the challenge, please mark it as "completed" at the TOP of your post.

→ If you decide that you've bitten off more than you can chew, feel free to let me know you'd like to downgrade, or even back out of the challenge. However, please do not delete your post. It will mess up the links to other participants' postings if you do.

Biate This was a fun challenge. :-)
I visited 9 countries. I've come to realize I read a lot of books that take place in the USA.
