Overview
Read Around the World is a challenge to read one book from every country in the world. Some people try to complete the challenge in one year (wow!) while others may select a handful of countries to tackle each year. This version is more flexible, tracking books over the course of your lifetime and divided by geographic area! There are 24 recognized countries in North America.
Rules for qualifying:
-Any genre (non-fiction, sci-fi, literary, etc.) or style (short fiction, poetry, graphic novels, etc.) is acceptable.
-The author must be from that country (Either born or grew up in that country. Let's not get too technical about what it means to be from a country, so if the author says that's where they're from, it's acceptable.)
-If possible, a large part of the book must be set in that country or the protagonist must have roots to that country.
