Nancy H | 933 comments I didn't do well last year, but this year I am trying to do much better. I have been reading some books set in my countries, but just haven't updated here yet. So finally, at long last, here is my progress:

South Korea - The Island of Sea Women The Island of Sea Women by Lisa See (5/27/19) - I really enjoyed this book because there was so much here that I did not know.
Cuba - North of Havana North of Havana (Doc Ford Mystery, #5) by Randy Wayne White (5/10/19) - This is a series I really enjoy.
China - China Rich Girlfriend China Rich Girlfriend (Crazy Rich Asians, #2) by Kevin Kwan (7/1/19) - Another series I am enjoying.
United Kingdom - The Bookshop on the Corner The Bookshop on the Corner by Jenny Colgan - Excellent story!
Norway - The Lion's Mouth The Lion's Mouth (Hanne Wilhelmsen, #4) by Anne Holt (3/21/19) - Good mystery
Solomon Islands - Devil-Devil Devil-Devil (Kella and Conchita Mysteries #1) by Graeme Kent (6/20/19) - A really good 'native' mystery
in the tradition of Arthur Upfield's Napoleon Bonapart Australian series

I am still working on:
Myanmar
Saudi Arabia
Lithuania
Somalia
Brazil
Mauritania
Bahrain
Cameroon
Czech Republic
Sri Lanka
Bhutan
Tonga
South Sudan
Cape Verde
