Reading Around the World

200 books from 200 countries (and territories). I wanted to find books available in English, so in addition to native authors I've also included second generation immigrants, expats, and others. A variety of genres: historical fiction, murder mysteries, young adult novels, memoirs/autobiographies, sci-fi/fantasy, short stories, poetry, non-fiction, etc.
