Reading Island Nations 2025

18 participants (42 books)

01 Jan 202531 Dec 2025

Overview

Read books by authors from island nations, preferably set there too. Diaspora counts. I am shooting for at least one per month.

The point of this challenge is to expand our reading beyond the mainstream publishing world. Therefore, the UK does not count for this challenge.
