Around the World Challenge for Beginners

You can start and finish this challenge whenever you like!

A slower-paced challenge for people who want to expand their reading selections, but not too quickly. The books chosen should be from authors from each region. These works do not have to be translated from the country's language.

10 prompts from most (if not all) countries of the world, grouped geographically and by likelihood to find English translated novels if that is your goal. All countries included in said region are written in the description of each prompt. No time limit :)

Challenge prompts

1. A book from North America (minus Mexico)

2. A book from Latin America

3. A book from Scandinavia or the British Isles

4. A book from Europe (minus Eastern Europe)

5. A book from Eastern Europe or Central Asia

6. A book from Western Asia
