BarbaraBB Great idea. I always try to read from various countries and will continue to do so this year. I‘ll gladly use your widgets and will tag you! 11mo

Kristy_K I‘m also trying to read through the world! It‘ll be great to get inspiration from some of what you read and join along with the tags! 11mo

GatheringBooks @Kristy_K i love it! That is so awesome that you are also reading through the world. Let‘s do it!! 🤩😘🥰📚📚📚 11mo

GatheringBooks @mhillis i loooove translated literature, too! Happy to hear you are joining in this reading adventure! 11mo

GatheringBooks @Eggs indeed! 🙏🏼🌷📚 11mo

Larkken Wonderful! I feel like I try this periodically and then find a new country to obsess over every time. It throws me off the overall quest, maybe, but that‘s ok. I‘ve requested something for the Netherlands for #foodandlit, and I‘ll gladly tag this challenge as well after I read it 💙❤️🧡 11mo

GatheringBooks @Larkken very strategic, i love it! Happy to have you onboard. My favorite author from the Netherlands is Cees Nooteboom - and fell in love with

The Following Story

BarbaraBB @Larkken What book have you ordered? 11mo

Larkken @BarbaraBB Ha, just realized I got two 😆 which would you recommend? The Discomfort of Evening by Rijneveld and the tagged. @GatheringBooks I'll look that one up too!

The Discovery of Heaven

11mo

BarbaraBB The first is short and very uncomfortable. The latter is good but loooong and a bit over the top. I‘d read the first but don‘t say I didn‘t warn you 😀 11mo

Larkken @BarbaraBB 🥶 oh dear. I'll offset with hot beverages and coziness. Thanks for the warning! 11mo
