I have to admit, I’m writing this update rather last minute, since I’m currently about to start my 130th book. So I thought I had better hurry up and not be two summary posts behind!
Here are books 111-120:
111 | Sweden | A Man Called Ove | Frederik Bachmann |
112 | Bolivia | Affections | Rodigo Hasbrun |
113 | Ethiopia | Beneath the Lion’s Gaze | Maaza Mengiste |
114 | Singapore | The Art of Charlie Chan Hock Chye | Sonny Liew |
115 | Guatemala | Silence on the Mountain | Daniel Wilkinson |
116 | Bosnia and Herzegovina | How the Soldier Repairs the Gramophone | Sasa Stanistic |
117 | Uzbekistan | The Railway | Hamid Ismailov |
118 | Namibia | The Purple Violet of Oshaantu | Neshani Andreas |
119 | Samoa | Leaves of the Banyan Tree | Albert Wendt |
120 | Comoros | A Fish Caught in Time | Samantha Weinberg |
I made a map of my progress to see what is left:
A lot of the countries I have left are too small to see on this map! It was interesting to see that there are some geographical gaps in the map- central Africa and northern South America. I’ll be working to fill in some of those regions.
Congratulations a nice total to reach

To be fair, I think your South America gap is called Brazil

🙂 By land area it certainly rounds off to Brazil! But it does also include Venezuela, Peru, Guyana, Suriname, and Paraguay. (Also French Guiana, which will presumably get filled in when I add in my book for France.)
