Doris (webgeekstress) | 84 comments I'll give this one a try, too. Not sure that I'll get past 'Language Learner', though.

Doris (webgeekstress) | 84 comments I'm starting off with An Elderly Lady is Up to No Good, translated from Swedish.

Doris (webgeekstress) | 84 comments My second book is Mustafa Kemal Atatürk ve Annesi (Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and His Mother), read in Turkish.

Nobody said these have to be books for grownups. :-)

Doris (webgeekstress) | 84 comments I forgot to log my third book, Look Who's Back, translated from German, which I read in April (as part of the TBR Takedown challenge).

And I've just finished my fourth book, The Makioka Sisters, translated from Japanese (also part of the TBR Takedown Challenge).
