I started this post yesterday and then Bobby, who was playing Mario 3 or our NES, was like, "You should come in and play too!" and the Siren's call of nostalgic video games overwhelmed the urge to writing about books and writing.

First of all, I'm doing a Read Around the World challenge. I started it p-locked (and my list is still in-progress because I'm also trying to read a book set in each of the 50 U.S. states and have more to add than what I've listed so far) but am opening it up because 1) I'd love recommendations on what to read and 2) thought it might be useful for others who want to expand their reading horizons.

There's a lot of YA on the list, which is more an occupational hazard than a personal preference. Read more... )
Titles in bold are written by an author who is from the country or whose parents are immigrants from the country.

I am not doing this for the U.S. list, where I will try to read a book set in each of the 50 states.

I am listing each book I read for each country. On the U.S. list, I am listing only one book that I think best fits that state.

Titles followed by (YA) are young adult or teen books.

Lists of novels by country (Wikipedia)

Recommendations are super welcome.
