Although the challenge won't officially kick off until 2013, I wanted to go ahead and add books to the shelves so you can start figuring out what you want to read in the upcoming months.

Books have been suggested for several countries, and they're already on the shelves, but feel free to add books for the countries already listed and for any not mentioned. If you don't see a particular country on a shelf, it's because I haven't found a book set in that country and no one has recommended one yet.

As you add books, please make sure to tag them with the name of the country so that others can find books by country easily.

Hi Reads For Pleasure. I like the idea of one book a week about a country. I'll come back in January which isn't far away.:)

You can read books already on the list and suggest books that aren't. We'll hold a discussion each quarter about a book already on the list. I'll let you know in January what book that will be and we'll discuss it in March.

So the author is from a certain country or the book is set in a certain country?

Beverly I am excited about this group as I love reading books set in different countries from where I live.
Looking forwarding to seeing what others will be reading and the discussion.
I will look at the list and see what I can add.
