bartzturkeymom's "2008 Olympics Reading Challenge"
The point is to read one author per each of the 205 nations participating in the 2008 Summer Olympic Games by the end of the games. This seems like a real fit for me as I like challenges, I love learning about the world—both past and present, and I love to read. My original goal for 2006 was only to read 50 books. I have to confess that I’m going to really have to step it up in order to make that goal much less this new one, but I think I can do it! (she says naively, having bitten off more than she can chew.)
These are by no means the only books that can be chosen for the challenge. They are just mine and they only represent the countries for which I have found a book that fits the challenge and sounds interesting to me. I wish I could list the country and follow it with the book(s) I’ve chosen, but it looks like I can only list items on the list and not places. I’ll list the books in order by country and then list the countries with the titles in the comments as I read them.
