I just found this challenge, and thought I'd sign up for it, since I already read a book set in Canada and have another in the series in my to be read pile, and am reading one set in Egypt. And a lot of my books are set in the U.S.--so I thought that's a good start, right? They will also probably be mysteries, as I love reading various types of them, although I might throw in something different if it comes up.
I'm signing up for the Level 3: Casual Tourist category--read 6 books over the year, with one each from South America, Africa, Asia, and Europe.
The books I plan on reading for this challenge:
Still Life by Louise Penny--Canada (North America) finished 01/03/2014
The Mummy Case by Elizabeth Peters--Egypt (Africa) finished 01/08/2014
Green For Danger by Christianna Brand--England (Europe) finished 1/25/2014
The Shrunken Head by Robert Fish--Brazil (South America) finished 01/07/2014
Death in China by Carl Hiaasen and Bill Montalbano--China (Asia) finished 02/16/2014
Cocaine Blues by Kerry Greenwood--Australia finished 2/19/2014
Finished the challenge! But it's so early in the year, can I do level 4? That would be 12 books--all in different countries. I've already got 6. Let's give it a try.
