          Reading Africa

          This is a perpetual challenge to read at least one book relative by author and/ or setting to each of Africa's countries. It's a carry over from something I and another Thingamabrarian started in the All Books Africa group on LibraryThing. Below is my track list of reads. This challenge is open to everyone whether you want to go for every country or just a few. If you'd like to join in, simply add your link to each book to the Mr. Linky at the bottom of the page. If anyone has comments or questions, share them here on the original post for this challenge.
