Crime Fiction takes you travelling - update October

I was reminded yesterday that it is 3 months since I updated my "countries visited" map.
In reality not a lot has changed in 3 months despite reading 36 books

Here is the map so far this year



Here is the map for the first half of the year - you've got to look very carefully to see the differences :-)

  1. What a great map--or maps! Fantastic.

    I see some differences in Scandinavia, the Middle East and South America.

    I'm trying to figure out what to read for another book from Latin America.

    Is there a place where I can look to see the books you've read per continent for the global challenge, to get some ideas--although I am going to read "City of Veils," which I saw posted here, and grabbed it at the library.

    Am about 1/3 of the way through Malla Nunn's second book, "Let the Dead Lie," and I give it an A at this point, and wish that's all I had to do today. Although not a fast-paced thriller, it still is in that "unputdownable" category.

    Thanks for your great review of her first book. She is quite a writer and should get a lot of accolades and attention...very sensitive, thoughtful writing.

  2. Kathy, my Global Reading Challenge summaries are here
    I sometimes go to the challenge website to check what others have read

    I have a library copy of Let the Dead Lie that I must get to soon
