Another challenge for 2015! You can find the information at Rose City Reader.
Essentially, you have to read a book from each of 50 European countries, either by an author from that country or set in that country. I am going for the five books level (Deluxe Entourage) and beyond because I have been trying to read more books in translation and from other countries. Because of this, I am going to try to find authors from each country rather than just books set there but we'll see how far I get!
Can't wait for January 2015 to start! In the meantime, my list of ideas is below. I will update as the challenge progresses.
My choices:
Albania
Andorra
Armenia
Austria
Azerbaijan
Belarus
Belgium
Bosnia and Herzegovina
